Patterns to replace before the Import

Ryan has copied all the XML dumps from his WT backup wikis. The dumps contain the full revision history of all articles in all namespaces and all language versions.

This page is about patterns that need to be replaced before the import is done. This should limit to a minimum in order to keep the old versions as close as possible to the original on WT.

When the import is done, we will have to make automated edits on many articles in order to adapt them to the new site. This changes are prepared in Patterns to replace after the Import.

All wikis
[[Wikitravel:      => [[Wikivoyage: [[:*Wikitravel:        (OK, we also could allow a ':' )

[[en:Wikitravel:      => [[en:Wikivoyage: [[:en:Wikitravel:      => [[:en:Wikivoyage: . . etc.

{{:*Wikitravel:    => {{Wikivoyage:              (yes, this exists!)

[[Wikitravel talk: => [[Wikivoyage talk: [[:*Wikitravel talk:   (even this)

[[en:Wikitravel talk:      => [[en:Wikivoyage talk: [[:en:Wikitravel talk:      => [[:en:Wikivoyage talk: . . etc.

{{:*Wikitravel*:    =>                           (does not exist)

*User:Hansm    => User:(WT/en) Hansm Hansm's signature    => (WT/en) Hansm's signature

{{:*User:           => {{User:(WT/en)

[[:en:User:Hansm    => [[:en:User:(WT/en) Hansm . . etc

*User talk:Hansm    => User talk:(WT/en) Hansm

en:User talk:Hansm    => en:User talk:(WT/en) Hansm . . etc

{{:*User talk:           =>                        (does not exist)

[[:*shared:              => [[:*shared2:

[[:*wts:                 =>                         (keep, iw to shared imported from WT)

This also includes the respective localisations of the namespaces.

There are more patterns proposed (s. Talk:Patterns to replace before the Import), but probaly pointless. -- Hansm 11:50, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
