Automated "Toolserver to Wikipedia Cleanup list" instructions

[edit]

The following is a visual basic script for adding cleanuplistings to the wiki for a specific project.

The script requires that you have XP (or higher) with VBS installed (this is installed on most Windows machines), and IE6+. For large projects (70k articles), it will take 250MB+ of RAM (VBS isn't the most efficient, and neither is IE).

Setup

[edit]
  1. Open notepad
  2. Copy and paste the code below into notepad
  3. Add your username, password, project, and project page.
  4. In notepad, select File->Save as and select "All files" at "File Save as Type"
  5. Enter the title cleanuplistingtowiki.vbs and select save in a directory.

Usage

[edit]
  1. Double-click cleanuplistingtowiki.vbs. It will open an IE window, log you into Wikipedia, and create a preview of the table.
  2. Select 'Save Page' from the preview. Done!
