Replace header with Aan

New page

== Adjust image sizes {{done}} ==
Each of the country pages listed at
[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists of basic topics#Basic topics lists for countries]] display a flag and a coat of arms side-by-side as a pair.

The sizes of the images in each pair need to be adjusted so that their heights match. The countries that still need this done for are the J's through the S's.

Well done. Thank you for the help! [[User talk:The Transhumanist|The Transhumanist]] 00:52, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

==Question {{done}}==
Can AWB be prevented from editing certain articles? I saw the article [[SoundSpel]], and in the given examples, where the spellings are simplified in the SoundSpel manner, I thought that AWB might try to correct something that shouldn't be corrected. Thanks, '''[[User:Spencer|Spencer]]'''[[User talk:Spencer|T♦]][[Special:Contributions/Spencer|C]] 19:18, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

== I need a notice removed from a set of pages {{done}}==

The Village Pump notice at the top of the country lists located at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists of basic topics#Basic topics lists for countries]] needs to be removed. Only the drafts in the Wikipedia namespace have the notices.

I don't currently have access to a machine I can run applications on, so I'd really appreciate your help.

'''''Please drop me a note on my talk page if you take this task on.'''''

Thank you.

== Move an item on a set of pages {{done}} ==

On the country lists located at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists of basic topics#Basic topics lists for countries]], the link "[[Extreme points of x]]" (where "x" is the country's name) needs to be moved to the end of the "Location:" item above it in the same section (use two asterisks for the indent). "Extreme points" refers to the country's location after all, and I didn't catch this when I created the lists. This only needs to be done on the drafts in the Wikipedia namespace (not the pages in article space).

'''''Please drop me a note on my talk page if you take this task on.'''''

Thank you.

==Cities and towns in Quebec {{done}} ==
[[:Category:Cities in Quebec]] → [[:Category:Cities and towns in Quebec]]. I've already moved all the subcategories, but since there's 191 of them and my eyes are glazing over, could somebody with access to AWB do a quick move run on the articles? Thanks.

==How do I do changes in talk page based on content in the article page?==
I do this. I load [[:Category:Place of birth missing]] (consisting only of talk pages) and then I want to change this category with [[:Category:Place of birth missing (living people)]] if [[:Category:Living people]] exists in the article's page. -- [[User:Magioladitis|Magioladitis]] ([[User talk:Magioladitis|talk]]) 13:48, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
:Right click in the box with your list of pages. Then click "convert from talk pages." This should populate the list with the appropriate article pages. You can click "convert to talk pages" later if you need the list to show the talk pages again. Hope this helps. --[[User:Andrew Kelly|Andrew Kelly]] ([[User talk:Andrew Kelly|talk]]) 03:33, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
==Is this page active? Big project ==
* [[Wikipedia:Release Version|Wikipedia 0.7]] includes over 30,000 articles (after removing duplicates). I've already AWB-spell-checked <s>a couple thousand</s> 5152. Anyone wanna help?

**[[Wikipedia:TypoScan]] is co-ordinating a big sweep based on the last database dump. —'''[[User:Reedy|Ree]][[User talk:Reedy|dy]]''' 14:46, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

=={{done}} Search/Replace ==

Here's a simple one:

On all the pages listed at [[User:The Transhumanist/Country list]], please change:

* [[List of countries by GDP (nominal)|Economic rank]]:

To:

* [[List of countries by GDP (nominal)|Economic rank (by nominal GDP)]]:

(use the wikicode itself for the search/replace)

Be sure to turn off all automatic fixes (wikification, etc.) There's some non-wikified stuff in these that we need in them for now. Please make sure AWB does the search/replace only and nothing else.

Thank you.

== Typo {{done}}==

Hi, there are about 8,000 pages that contain the phrase "an European" [http://www.google.com/search?q=%22an+european%22+inurl:en.wikipedia.org&num=100&hl=en&rls=GGLD,GGLD:2003-42,GGLD:en&filter=0], which needs to be changed to "a European". This error was presumably caused by non-native English speakers using the pronunciations of their own language. Would anyone be willing to have a go? --[[User:Lo2u|Lo2u]] ([[User talk:Lo2u|T]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lo2u|C]]) 19:24, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
:Typo rule [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Typos&diff=253042517&oldid=253041807 added]. I'll have a run through, though a Wikipedia mainspace search gives 191 results. [[User talk:Rjwilmsi|'''''Rjwilmsi''''']] 19:58, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
::Yes, I do seem to have have rather overstated the problem. Anyway, thanks a lot. --[[User:Lo2u|Lo2u]] ([[User talk:Lo2u|T]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lo2u|C]]) 15:36, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
:{{done}}. I ran through that google search you did with the Find & Replace set to find "an european" & replace it with "a european." Most of the results didn't contain that text, and most of those that did were in namespaces other than the mainspace which I left alone. I fixed these articles:
**[[Alin Jivan]]
**[[ModeFRONTIER]]
**[[Freedom of the press in Italian Republic]]
**[[Marian Drăgulescu]]
**[[Andreas Hillgruber]]
**[[SeCSE]]
**[[Driv3r]]
**[[William Penn]]

:I think this, combined with the addition to the typo-fixing function, should mostly take care of the problem in the Mainspace. If you have any other tedious typos you'd like fixed, I'd be happy to help.
