Depends on the Python lxml module.

Currently only the article body extraction is implemented, and there is 

a slight delta between the output produced by the JS version due to the

differences in how DOM is represented and manipulated between the browser DOM

and Python's lxml.  For instance, lxml represents text as attributes on nodes

rather than nodes themselves.  These differences complicated the translation of

the algorithm a bit.
