Erm. Yes, but...

Unless I misunderstand how to use  mediawiki2latex, then it is now
failing in other ways.

A simple:
 mediawiki2latex -o /tmp/Haskell.pdf  --u https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Haskell

does *not* 
"... fetch MediaWiki pages from a URL. It will fetch all
       its content recursively, i.e. subpages and pictures..." (from the
       man page)       

Instead it simply copies a single page, including what I think is
metadata.

If I sidestep that problem by using the print version:
 mediawiki2latex -o /tmp/Haskell.pdf   -u 
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Haskell/Print_version

then there are other problems which I haven't investigated yet, such as
'”‘UNIQ--postMath-00000001- QINU‘
on page 16 of the pdf.

Should I re-open this bug, or open a new bug report?

Thanks for the quick response to the first problem, by the way.
