Cone.png Expand on the exact usage of this script. For example
  • It is run server side
  • How to roll back a series of robot edits
  • Scheduler interfacing
  • New task: Move All categories within articles to the bottom of articles by convention.


Note.svg Note: this article needs to be in multiple workflows. A category for a technical writer, workflow todo, and automation


This script uses the Simple Forms extension to allow creating or updating articles without needing to sign in and pattern match the human forms. To do it the normal bot way see wiki.pl, but this way is much more efficient.

Global replacement

Hi Nad, the Malay language is still undergoing great changes. As such, many terminologies are replaced from time to time. What I need is a word-to-word replacement. Sometimes these words may be a compound word comprising up to three words. Also I would like to remove some template references, eg many a time, I decided that I don't need the template anymore and I want to remove all reference to it. If a global replace like in Microsoft word where I can replace a word with a blank, that would solve my problem. Thanking you in advance. — PM Poon 13:48, 10 December 2007 (NZDT)
