[edit] Bot request

(10:27:00) BewareofDoug: JackPotte, you have a page move bot on en.ws, right? (10:27:29) BewareofDoug: Any interest in a small (25-30 page) job? (10:28:18) BewareofDoug: If not, I'll ask Spangineer (10:34:02) JackPotte: BewareofDoug: sorry I'm back (10:34:08) JackPotte: what's the list? (10:36:03) BewareofDoug: OK, just a second (10:36:23) BewareofDoug: http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Essays_%28Francis_Bacon%29 (10:37:10) BewareofDoug: The subpages need to be moved to /Essays, civil and moral (Harvard Classics)/ (10:37:19) JackPotte: let's go :) (10:37:32) BewareofDoug: the main page too but I can do that by hand if neeeded (10:37:54) BewareofDoug: What will it leave? (10:38:22) BewareofDoug: the sub pages can be dated soft redirects if you can do that or I can add them with my bot later (10:38:34) JackPotte: ok (10:39:18) BewareofDoug: Afterwards, I'll turn the main page into a dab (10:42:20) BewareofDoug: Do you need me to generate a real list of pages or have you got it? (10:42:30) BewareofDoug: Since that list are all relative links (10:50:56) JackPotte: I have the script to generate it (10:53:12) BewareofDoug: OK, great (10:54:54) JackPotte: by default, movepages.py will leave some "hard redirects" (10:55:27) BewareofDoug: OK, that's fine, I can replace them later with dated softs (11:37:14) JackPotte: BewareofDoug: http://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Essays,_civil_and_moral_%28Harvard_Classics%29&action=edit&redlink=1 (the main page) doesn't exist yet (11:37:18) JackPotte: is it normal? (11:37:56) BewareofDoug: It's fine, the main page "Essays (Francis Bacon)" will move there (11:38:04) JackPotte: go (11:38:37) BewareofDoug: I just didn't want to move the main page before you started because the links are relative (11:39:21) JackPotte: BewareofDoug: so I'm doing the both now
I've checked and I'm beginning now. JackPotte (talk) 10:26, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
