This is the documentation for configuring WPCleaner. Examples of configuration can be found for example on the French wiki (most options are used), on the English wiki, ...
Prerequisites
[edit]Before configuring WPCleaner for a specific wiki, you must check a few things:
- Optional: By default, WPCleaner relies on the
disambiguation
property to determine if a page is a disambiguation page, provided by the Disambiguator extension. If this extension is not active on your wiki, specific configuration is required, by setting thedab_use_disambig
parameter tofalse
and configuring an alternative way to determine if a page is a disambiguation page.
- If no other configuration is done, WPCleaner will rely on MediaWiki:Disambiguationspage, which must contain internal links to each template that can be used to indicate that a page is a disambiguation page (Template:Disambig, …), and no internal links to other templates. See for example fr:MediaWiki:Disambiguationspage. Without a proper setup of this page, WPCleaner won't be able to find links to disambiguation pages.
- Otherwise, you can also define the
dab_categories
parameter described in the following chapters.
- Optional: WPCleaner can also work with a list of disambiguations to focus on. This list must be maintained outside WPCleaner (usually with scripts parsing the last dump) in a page.
- If your Wikipedia doesn't have such pages, you can ask for a script on projects that are already generating those lists (en:Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links, fr:Discussion Projet:Liens vers les pages d'homonymie, ...).
- See also
dab_list
parameter in the following chapters.
- Optional: WPCleaner can also work with the Check Wikipedia project.
- If your Wikipedia is not managed by Check Wiki, you can ask the project to add it.
- You also need to create a project page (en:Wikipedia:WikiProject Check Wikipedia, fr:Projet:Correction syntaxique, …) and a translation page (en:Wikipedia:WikiProject Check Wikipedia/Translation, fr:Projet:Correction syntaxique/Traduction, …).
- See also
check_wiki_project_page
andcheck_wiki_translation_page
parameters in the following chapters.
- Optional: WPCleaner can also help fixing spelling and typography.
- To activate this option, you need to do several things:
- Create a template (example on frwiki) that will be used to define each suggestion for fixing spelling or typography.
- Create a list of suggestions (example on frwiki).
- Set up WPCleaner for Check Wikipedia project and activate error n°501.
- Instead of creating the template and the list of suggestions, you can also use a pre-existing list in AWB format.
- See also
general_suggestions
andgeneral_suggestions_typo
parameters in the following chapters.
General syntax
[edit]Each wiki can configure WPCleaner by using the template as the base to create the page [[User:NicoV/WikiCleanerConfiguration]]
.
The configuration file has the following syntax :
- Each parameter is defined using the following format:
<parameter name>=<parameter value> END
- A parameter can be defined on several lines, for example for a multi-lines text or a list of values.
- A line starting with the character
#
is a comment.
Each user can also partially configure WPCleaner specifically for himself by creating the page [[User:UserName/WikiCleanerConfiguration]]
.
The parameters available to configure WPCleaner are described in the following chapters. The syntax of each parameter is described using the following syntax :
- A text surrounded by
<…>
indicates a value that needs to be configured. If the text contains the pipe character |, the text is a list of possible values. - A text surrounded by
[…]
indicates an optional value.
Help parameters
[edit]help_url
[edit]help_url = <full URL for help page> END
This parameter is used for displaying WPCleaner help page in a browser. If you don't have a help page for WPCleaner on your wiki, you can use a link to an other wiki.
If you want to use the English help page :
help_url = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WPCleaner/Help END
If you want to use the French help page :
help_url = http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipédia:WPCleaner/Aide END
help_page
[edit]help_page = <internal link for help page> END
This parameter is used as a link in comments, so it should be as short as possible. Using a redirect page can be a good idea (for example, on enwiki, there's the WP:CLEANER redirect). If you don't have a help page for WPCleaner on your Wiki, you can use a link to an other wiki.
If you want to use the link to the English wiki (:en:WP:CLEANER) :
help_page = :en:WP:CLEANER END
If you want to use the link to the French wiki (:fr:WP:WPC) :
help_page = :fr:WP:WPC END
