I have gotten pywikipedia set up. It was pretty easy. The guide at http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Randomtime/An_introduction_to_Pywikipediabot was very helpful.

My directory was a bit different (Pybot/pywikipedia instead of Pybot) and I got an error when trying to login, so changed my user_config file slightly to look like

family = 'shortname'

mylang = 'en'

usernames['shortname']['en'] = u'MyBotName'

where shortname is the name you gave the url when you set up the family files, and MyBotName is the name you gave your bot when you registered it.
