No idea if it has anything to do with your problem, but it struck me 
that the iswikiword() function (and processword() which seems to be a 
helper for it) could be replaced with one line, and it would be reliable!

def iswikiword(word):
         return bool(re.match('^([A-Z][a-z]+){2,}$', word))

Of course you need to import re, but that seems a small price to pay!
