Automatic or Manually assisted: Automatic, semi-supervised
Source code available: Just simple regular expressions using AWB.
Function overview: I would like to run simple tasks involving changing links. The first task would be this Bot Request.
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Bot Request
Edit period(s): One-off runs, when needed.
Estimated number of pages affected: A couple of hundred per run.
Exclusion compliant (Y/N): Yes
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): Yes
Function details: I would like to request approval to do basic tasks changing links. For example, changing links after the creation or removal of a disambiguation page. The first task would changing links from Hamilton West to Hamilton West (electoral district), after the creation of a disambiguation page, as requested at this Bot Request.
For this first run I'd be using two regexs:
\[\[[ ]*Hamilton[ _]West[ ]*\]\]
will be replaced with [[Hamilton West (electoral district)|Hamilton West]]
\[\[[ ]*Hamilton[ _]West[ ]*\|[ ]*(.*?)[ ]*\]\]
will be replaced with [[Hamilton West (electoral district)|$1]]
The first one will match un-piped links, and the second one will match piped links. - EdoDodo talk 22:31, 6 August 2010 (UTC) reply
