Promises in fetch

A month ago I started creating my own wiki/parser but as you know it’s a big pain in the ass. So I decided colaborate with another library, yesterday I found this one and I think is a great start. My idea is helping you with this, but I think we have different code-styles, and before start send you PRs I wanna tell you my thoughts:

• Why we need more than one method? Now we have plaintext, from_api and parse. IMHO this library must be a unique stateless method:

import wikipediaWTF from `wikipedia-wtf`;

wikipedia(sentence {string}, options {language...})

• Why we dont use Promises like?Better if we use something like:

wikipedia.from(sentence, options)
  .then(value => ...)
  .catch(error => ...)

• If it’s a promise we can use the new standard async/await:

const knowledge = await wikipedia(sentence, options);

• IMHO is better approach auto-parse the markup to a JavaScript Object
• Now we have infobox and infobox_template, why we dont create a unique attribute?**
• And the last one (for now), why we use grunt?? Maybe we have to move to babel + mocha via NPM tasks (zero-dependencies)

I think this library is a great start, but we have to create an consistent DSL for a better experience using it.

best,
