strange diffs getting tweeted

See original GitHub issue

@ruebot noticed a series of odd updates like this which led to the discovery that readability returns very little content sometimes. For example:


import requests
import readability

html = requests.get("https://www.thestar.com/news/world/2017/01/11/uk-teen-charged-with-murder-of-7-year-old-girl.html").content
doc = readability.Document(html)

print(doc.summary())

returns (at the moment):

<html><body><div><div class="article__subheadline" data-reactid="93"><p data-reactid="94">The 15-year-old was remanded into secure accommodation on Wednesday and was also charged with possession of an offensive weapon. </p></div></div></body></html>

Perhaps there should be a configurable threshold below which the content will be ignored or at least not tweeted? Could readability be tuned in this case to return content that is more appropriate like the text of the AP press release?

That’s a wise move. Definitely leaving it open because I bet we run up against this type of issue with other sites.

I’ve put the torstar account on pause until we can figure this one out since it’s putting out so many false positives.
