replacing entire page
by Chris Watkins 28 Aug '09

28 Aug '09

Is there a way I can use replace.py to replace an entire page with certain text? There are pages I need to remove for copyright reasons, and I can list them in a file (to call with "-file:pagelist.txt"). I tried using *, for the search text, with and without quotation marks, but it didn't work - the command I used was of this form: $ python replace.py -regex "*" "{{XYZ}}" -file:filelist.txt Thanks! -- Chris Watkins Appropedia.org - Sharing knowledge to build rich, sustainable lives. identi.ca/appropedia / twitter.com/appropedia blogs.appropedia.org I like this: five.sentenc.es

Please use and improve that branch if you want to work with the API instead of hacking more API functions into the trunk. Thanks, Merlijn

String substitution (was: Re: [Pywikipedia-svn] SVN: [7102] trunk/pywikipedia/category.py)

Would it be OK to introduce a possibly breaking change, or should some sort of wrapper be thought of? -Merlijn

Pywikipedia on wiktionaries
by Lucas Nunes 04 Aug '09

04 Aug '09

Hello. I have a bot running on wikipedias and wiktionaries. Pywikipedia works fine with wikipedias, but is terrible on wiktionaries, since it makes many mistakes, mainly indicating wrong links to add in pages. There's a very efficient bot named Interwicket, that uses another files to run. Is there anything that can be done to improve pywikipedia ?

search output
by Chris Watkins 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

Hi, I want to list all pages in our wiki that use tables. This seems like it should be simple, but I'm not sure how to do it. Any ideas? I know that "{|" (the beginning of a table) works as a search term, as I tried it with replace.py. However, I don't want to replace anything, and I don't want to sit there pressing "n" for each result. Ideally I could capture just the names of the pages, without extended details (such as a proposed diff given by replace.py). Any help much appreciated.
