Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: restriction for replace.py

Initial Comment: ==Francais== texte d'origine bonjour

je voudrais proposer un mode de restriction pour le module replace.py afin qu'il ignore tous caractères se trouvant entre [[ et ]] ou entre {{ et }}. Ceci avec un paramètre en ligne de commande tel que -ignorelink:(YES|no), yes par défaut.

ceci aurait l'avantage de ne pas modifier les liens et les modèles Merci

==English== translated text Hello I would like to propose a mode of limitation for the replace.py module so that he ignores any characters between [[ and ]] or {{ and }}. This with an on-line parameter of command such as -ignorelink:(YES|no), yes by default.

This would have the advantage not to modify the links and the models. Thank you

==Fin/End==

You can now skip templates and links by adding this parameter: -exceptinsidetag:template -exceptinsidetag:link

Note that -exceptinsidetag:link also skips occurences within categories, interwikis, and images that are not in galleries.

To make sure all image links are skipped, use -exceptinsidetag:gallery additionally. External links can be skipped with -exceptinsidetag:hyperlink.

There is more stuff that can be excepted, see replaceExcept() in wikipedia.py. Also, replace.py can now except pages because of their title or a contained text part, and can except occurences not only because they are inside templates, links etc., but also because they are inside a region which matches a regular expression that you entered.

I agree to russblau. Good as an option, but it should not be the default setting. In extension, it should also be good option not to allow text replacements in external links and image links, but allowing text replacements in ordinary wiki-links.

I suppose this could have some value as an option, but the default should be NO. Replacing links is one of the major uses of replace.py.
