TASK DESCRIPTION **Background information:** - standardizePageFooter <https://github.com/wikimedia/pywikibot/blob/master/pywikibot/cosmetic_changes.py#L329> moves the main category (the category that matches the article title) to the top of all the categories. - But in the process, it also changes the sort key of the main category to be a space (' ') like on English Wikipedia (enwiki). - On Arabic Wikipedia, per local policy, we use an asterisk '*' and not a space ' ' as sort key for the main category in articles. **Example of current behavior:** python pwb.py cosmetic_changes -page:"روستوك" -lang:ar **Output:** - This is the edit <https://ar.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=67368581> on wiki. Retrieving 1 pages from wikipedia:ar. >>> روستوك <<< @@ -183 +183 @@ - [[تصنيف:روستوك|*]] + [[تصنيف:روستوك| ]] Edit summary: بوت: تغييرات تجميلية Do you want to accept these changes? ([y]es, [N]o, [a]ll, [q]uit): y Page [[روستوك]] saved **Request:** - Please make the bot use an asterisk '*' and not a space ' ' as sort key for the main category on Arabic Wikipedia (arwiki). - So, for the previous edit, the bot should have done nothing, because the main category in the article already uses an asterisk '*' as sort key.
