I would like to know two things:

• I want to implement a script to rename pages. Do you agree that implementing this feature within replace.py as an option would the the right approach, or should I create a separated script?

Good question. I would be inclined to say it would be better as a seperate script, but as Bináris has mentioned: replace.py has a lot of functionality that might be useful. I *think* the best thing would be to actually remove the generic functionality from replace.py and move it to pagegenerators.py, so that you would only need very little duplicated code.

• What is the current procedure to provide patches (for the rewrite branch)? Reading http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikipediabot/Development didn’t solve this doubt of mine. I see there is a Patches section in SourceForge, is that the right place?

The best way is to push a patch to gerrit (see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git ), or to submit a pull request on github (from https://github.com/wikimedia/pywikibot-core , although I'm not 100% sure pull request integration is enabled yet). You can also upload a patch to SF.net, and someone will copy it to gerrit for you.

Best,

Merlijn
