Extracting information from WebView

Hi all:

I started playing around with WebKit. Well, my application has a working
web browser now.  However, I did not manage to extract information from
a loaded web page.

In particular, I want to get a list of authors of a given Wikipedia
page. For example, when displaying the page
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Malakand>, I would like to get
all user names that are mentioned on the article's history page, that is
<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Siege_of_Malakand&action=history>.

Users on the article's history page appear like the following in the
HTML source:

    <a href="/wiki/User:Yomangani" title="User:Yomangani">Yomangani</a>

I'm wondering what the best way would be to retrieve an array of all
authors of a currently displayed Wikipedia page.

Any hints or pointers to sample code?
Anything would be appreciated.

/CA
