Operator: Mgm|^(talk)

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Automatic, supervised

Programming Language(s): AutoWikiBrowser

Function Summary:

• Rename {{Architecture}} to {{WikiProject Architecture}} to cleanup a renaming in line with other project templates and to ensure the old name isn't mistakenly used again so it's open to be used as a navigational template. This means doing over 8000 edits in total. I've done a test run on AWB with my regular account, but manual confirmation for this task is not feasible.

Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): Multiple runs until task is finished (no longer than 4 hours each).

Edit rate requested: 6 edits per minute

Already has a bot flag (Y/N): No.

Function Details:

• Create list from Whattranscludes here on Template:Architecture
• Use search and replace and replaces "{{Architecture" with "{{WikiProject Architecture" on all relevant talk pages.
• Tagged as minor edit.
• Edit summary: "Bot-assisted template renaming".

Discussion

Approved for trial (20 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Lets get a fair look of what it actually does first. Please request for AWB approval and get things running; don't forget to post back here when trial has done. — E ^talk_BAG 23:35, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

• I've done 19 trial edits; have a look if you want. The last article got skipped because it was one I did by hand earlier. - Mgmbot 13:48, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
