Hi

I have prepared a list with problematic page titles. Especially titles
with chars like [/#{}[]*] and the like are problematic since mediawiki
doesnt allow them (even if one urlencodes them).

Find the list (95 entries) here:

http://scratchpad.wikia.com/wiki/Errornames

Im not sure howto proceed here. Should we

a) find better titles before the import or
b) replace '/' by sth like '__OR__' and fix the whole title later?

I tend to b). Other suggestions?

BTW: For the import I will now use WikipediaFS. A great little
filesystem that lets you treat mediawiki articles like real files.
Simply edit with vim, :wq, done. Or for the bulkimport: copy/write
prepared files to the fs.

Sebastian.



That WikipediaFS is pretty gnarly.  Thanks for the tip ;-)
