Subject: two quick updates to the raw files
X-Git-Url: https://projects.mako.cc/source/wikipedia-api-cdsw/commitdiff_plain/f17f0a3f63dd03d70cdc693da0bda53a1e85671b?ds=inline;hp=f2892ae64a4eb963904669373c148d9dbdfa3b1b

two quick updates to the raw files

- move to Python 3 (i.e., print()'ify stuff)
- requests can do JSON natively using .json() on the request object which
  solves the problem with requests returning bytes
