Please help, I can't do it. :-(
I had a working command: replace.py -links:User:BinBot/try -fix:datumjav -recursive -allowoverlap
Now I don't wan't to edit the articles containing templates {{szinnyei}} or {{pallas}} because they are not worth to deal with. I tried to insert -excepttext:'szinnyei' -excepttext:szinnyei -excepttext:{{szinnyei}} -excepttext:'{{szinnyei}}' and so on, and none of them worked, it always edits those terrible articles. I also tried except instead of excepttext, because the help inside the replace.py states that. I am a bit confused because http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Replace.py states that only older versions used except, and my replace.py contains the LockedPage exception, so it must be the newest according to http://pywikipediabot.cvs.sourceforge.net/pywikipediabot/pywikipedia/replace..., but the inside help still says except.
Anyhow, I cannot avoid editing articles with these templates. What would be the correct syntax?

Oh, I corrected, there was an accidental extra enter in the batch file, which I hadn't noticed.
But my replace.py likes except instead of excepttext. So it seems to me, that
http://pywikipediabot.cvs.sourceforge.net/pywikipediabot/pywikipedia/replace...,
somehow isn't really up-to-date. It's confusing. What is the real place of new modules and why is not any warning on sourceforge that it is no longer updated?

please, read the output the bot gives you... since Revision 1.962 - (view) (download) (as text) (annotate) - [select for diffs] Thu Jul 19 20:19:48 2007 UTC (9 months, 2 weeks ago) by valhallasw Branch: MAIN Changes since 1.961: +10 -1 lines Diff to previous 1.961
Added a rather bulky warning to use SVN instead of CVS to wikipedia.py
the cvs revision outputs this error message: ================================================================================ This version of pywikipediabot has been retrieved from CVS. We have moved to SVN, and no more commits are made to this repository. Please do a SVN checkout from the new repository:
http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/pywikipedia/trunk/pywikipedia or download a nightly from http://tools.wikimedia.de/~valhallasw/pywiki/ ================================================================================
which should give enough information (i.e. that the repository is now at http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/pywikipedia/trunk/pywikipedia). Feel free to get a checkout there :)

Hi all,
I operate my bot - DragonBot - in wikipedias. Until a week or so back, my bot could login to wikipedias and wiktionaries from behind a proxy - by tweaking the wikipedia.py post function . Now I observe that it can't login.
1. My source code hasn't changed. 2. I tried with the 24-Apr Nightly codebase as well.
Has something been changed in the wikipedia server configuration? Say, disabling proxy caching or something like that at the server..
Regards,
Jacob
