Dear Ananth,

Global Replace can be done in one go using the script mentioned in my previous email. While CommonDelinker is a good option, the process is more complicated, than using the script. Also there CD was reported to have technical issues such as formation of double redirects.

To mention, I use the above script regularly to replace files globally, it works perfectly fine. If anybody wants, I can help you with the installation and execution.

Sushant, I can see that you've put in the entire script code to your common.js, please replace the entire block with this line,

importScript('User:Perhelion/justReplace.js'); 

I think this also does the same thing, but try this, it should work.

Thanks,
Krishna

Dear Sushant, 

As per our knowledge, we can't replace files on a single go in different wikis with the help of Javascript. User:CommonsDelinker[1] is a PHP based hot which will help you to such things based on the request.
