Hi John,
Thanks, i have installed the pywikipedia. I tried the way mentioned in the
documentation and it did not work for me. but your mentioned path was very
helpful. why it is not included in the main documentation?
I need an another help. When i run the script replace.py it show the error
"PageNotFound". Here the reason is the script is trying to get the page
form a url like "MY_DOMAIN/wiki/PageName". But i am using default setting
and my page url are like "MY_DOMAIN/index.php/PageName".
can you tell me where can i change this to make the scripts work.

Its fairly easy to setup on any wiki.
Checkout
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/pywikibot/compat.git
run generate_family_file.py
http://linktoyoursite.com shortnameofsite
run generate_user_files.py and select shortnameofsite
Then use replace.py
Profit
