Originally from: http://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/patches/537/ Reported by: phoenixca Created on: 2012-01-21 20:06:11 Subject: Minor improvements on add_text.py Original description: Added an open in browser option to confirmation dialogue (similar to replace.py ) and added a new -only arg (essentially the opposite of -except). If a page text doesn't match the -only regex given, it skips.
Example use: I added this while trying to clean-up a Wikia wiki. Wikia's RTE leaves [[File:Placeholder on pages often. With this addition, the bot can use -only:"[[File:Placeholder" -except:"{{image}}" -text:"{{image}}" -up , to add a meta tag to pages that have image placeholders, but not ones that already have the {{image}} tag.
