Originally from: http://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/bugs/1386/ Reported by: bewareofdoug Created on: 2011-12-06 22:56:55 Subject: -titleregex only searches mainspace Original description: Using the -titleregex parameter to a replace.py on the wikimedia commons only gets me hits in the main (gallery) space not in file/image space where I need it to. setting -namespace:6 does nothing and setting -prefixindex:file 'adds' mainspace content with the word file in front. The same result is obtained when attempting to look in userspace (though I didn't try it with -namespace:). An example is: python replace.py -titleregex:".*Nietzsche.*" foooooooo bar
