[Mediawiki-l] Changing the name of my wiki

[Mike Valstar]

you could do this

SELECT * FROM page,revision,text WHERE rev_page = page_id AND 
rev_text_id = old_id AND old_text like '%[[old_project_title:%'

this will give you a list of all pages that use the old title.. then you 
need to go in and fix them... you could use mysql to do a REPLACE with 
an update

UPDATE text SET old_text = replace(old_text, '[[old_name:', '[[new_name:')

THIS COULD BREAK THINGS

I suggest you manually change them
