Comment 3 Maarten Dammers 2013-10-10 18:27:23 UTC 
Is this still the case? Is this in 1.0 (compat) or 2.0 (core)?
Comment 4 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-10 18:48:35 UTC 
It should not be an issue in core.
Comment 5 Mpaa 2013-10-10 21:16:20 UTC 
Cannot reproduce:
>>> import wikipedia as pywikibot
>>> s = pywikibot.getSite('wikidata', 'wikidata')
>>> p = pywikibot.DataPage(s, 'Q1942244')
>>> print p.exists()
True
>>> p = pywikibot.Page(s, 'Q1942244')
>>> print p.exists()
True

I guess this has been solved months ago.
