Description

```
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to http://qrpedia.org
2. Enter http://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beograd URL

QRPedia says "Sorry - that doesn't seem to be a valid Wikipedia URL" while it
is.

This is because sr.wikipedia uses the converttitles MediaWiki option that
QRPedia doesn't recognize. This is solved in the attached patches (along with a
few other tiny issues). Use of converttitles will have no effect on Wikipedias
that don't use this option.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with http://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beograd, then inspect the attached index.diff and qrpedia_index.diff for the proposed converttitles handling. Done means QRPedia accepts this valid Serbian Wikipedia URL while preserving validation for Wikipedias that do not use the option.
