Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: other Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None
Priority: 7
Private: No Submitted By: BinĂ¡ris (binbot) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Limited search in pagenerators.py, invalid help
Initial Comment: pagenerators.py, current ver 8652
Help says: -search Work on all pages that are found in a MediaWiki search across all namespaces. But this is not the truth; it will work on 100 pages at most.
line 875: def SearchPageGenerator(query, number = 100, namespaces = None, site = None): This limits the results to 100 pages, and there is no possibility to pass a different number from command line. Please build in this parameter and write it in the help, or alternatively give an unlimited number to the query as stated in help.
Thank you!

Message: I increased the priority because the dump server has already been dead for several weeks and seems not to revive in the near future. In this emergency we are compelled to use -search for replace.py instead of dump.
