Description

Hi, by running scripts with --html option, I met KeyError when trying to transform XML dump to HTML, same as #40.

This is also reported in #247. Any solution to it?

Research direction

Reproduce the failure by running the scripts with --html against the linked English Wikipedia XML dump. Read the related reports in issues #40 and #247, then identify the cause of the KeyError; done means the dump transforms to HTML without that error.
