Description
It does works, however, beside being horribly slow; it has a major issue.
It should separate articles with two empty lines, which it does, sometimes.
`\n\n`
but NOT on all articles.
`\n`
This makes the text output impossible to parse on a large scale, since no consistency is taken, it can happen everywhere.
And I am sure peoples had spent a lot of time figuring it out, as I did, and have end-up to abandon their project completly.
:/

Research direction
Reproduce the extractor on a Wikipedia dump and inspect output around article boundaries. Trace the formatting path that emits article separators and compare cases showing `\n\n` with those showing `\n`. Done means article boundaries use a consistent separator throughout the output so it can be parsed reliably.
