GetUserTimeline() signature lists 'include_entities' but it isn't supported it seems

ERROR: GetUserTimeline() got an unexpected keyword argument 'include_entities'

https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/statuses/user_timeline
The link above doesn't show the parameter being supported.

I'm confused - I just re-read that link and I don't see include_entities mentioned anywhere on that page.

entity information is now always included, so the parameter is no longer required.

The only thing that hits on that page for "include_*" search is the references to include_rts

Sorry, doesn't look like I was clear.
You're right, twitter doesn't support that parameter.
But, the GetUserTimelime argument list (copied below) in twitter.py lists it and if one tries to use it, the call fails. I was recommending removing it from the argument list but it's a very minor issue.

def GetUserTimeline(self,
id=None,
user_id=None,
screen_name=None,
since_id=None,
max_id=None,
count=None,
page=None,
include_rts=None,
trim_user=None,
include_entities=None,
exclude_replies=None):

you may be looking at an older version of the code - I just checked the master branch on github to make sure and I see this as the GetUserTimeline() signature:

def GetUserTimeline(self,
user_id=None,
screen_name=None,
since_id=None,
max_id=None,
count=None,
include_rts=None,
trim_user=None,
exclude_replies=None):

Yes, it was an older copy. Corrected.
