Is there a bot which will repair external URL coded links to the same wikinand

For example, if MediaWikis were installed in www.example.com/wiki and pages
contains
links using external link notation
blah http://www.example.com/wiki/Some_page blah
blah [http://www.example.com/wiki/Some_page some text] blah
blah [http://www.example.com/wiki/Some_page#some_section some text] blah
then the "What links here" feature would not work because such links are not
recognized.
The bot would replace those with wiki links:
blah [[Some page]] blah
blah [[Some page | some text]] blah
blah [[Some page#some_section | some text]] blah or blah {{there|some
section|Some page | some text}} blah
In addition, if the link is to a section of the current page, i.e. on [[Some
page]],
the second link would be updated as
{{here|some section|some text}}
There may need to be some way to disable this (i.e. in help or project pages
that discuss link notation).
You could perform it using pywikipedia and some ugly regex.
It's http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikipediabot
and the regex shouldnt be that ugly. At least if you dont want to do
everything in one strike. I'd start with
"\[http://www.example.com/wiki/(.*?)#(.*?) (.*?)\]" "[[\1#\2 | \3]]" (or
"{{there|\2|\1 | \3}}" if you prefer; I dont know any way to check if
the link is to a section on the current page though; maybe with
Extension:ParserFunctions: {{#ifeq: {{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}} | \1 |
{{here|\2|\3}} and some kind of substitution (safesubst?); one of the
guys on our wiki probably could do this)
Then:
"\[http://www.example.com/wiki/(.*?) (.*?)\]" "[[\1 | \2]]"
and last:
"http://www.example.com/wiki/(.*?)" "[[\1]]"
Since you can tell the bot which pages to work on, you can exclude pages
in help and project namespaces by simply telling it to work on the
article namespace:
replace.py -start:! -regex "\[http://www.example.com/wiki/(.*?)#(.*?)
(.*?)\]" "[[\1#\2 | \3]]" -summary:"internal links format"
Maybe http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Replace_Text could do the
trick too, but I havent tried that Extension yet.
