Hello,
we got a request to rename a lot of articles in huwiki. See
http://hu.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikip%C3%A9dia:Botgazd%C3%A1k_%C3…
All the "0" chars in titles mean "any digit". As far as I see,
move.py does
not handle regexps in the way replace.py does, although I would just need
this feature.
How would you solve this problem?
Earlier in another problem I generated "move X Y" lines with Excel, and put
them in a batch file, calling move.py as many times as the number of
articles to rename, what is not too nice, but now I don't know all the
original titles, only patterns.

Use movepages.py, with -pairs parameter. It will read a text file, where old
names and new names are paired linke this:
[[old name1]] [[new name1]]
[[old name2]] [[new name2]]
