Discussion
Does it use Perlwikipedia? Will it handle images with wikilinks in caption properly? What about galleries? Will it simjply remove images, or replace them with a placeholder image? MaxSem(Han shot first!) 05:35, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
- Galleries are handled, wikilinks are 99.9% handled, the only issue being nested wikilinks within the image, but that's not a very common thing, and if that happens the bot won't change anything. At the moment it's configured to remove the image - same regex as the first task - however if a placeholder would be more appropriate, we can do that. --uǝʌǝsʎʇɹnoɟʇs(st47) 11:28, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, uses perlwikipedia with my wrapper. --uǝʌǝsʎʇɹnoɟʇs(st47) 11:45, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
- [[|275px|thumb|left|The Moscow Kremlin and the Moskva River]]One random example: will it properly remove that image (by the way, will your bot remove images or comment them out?) MaxSem(Han shot first!) 19:38, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
