Bug ID: 66312
Summary: Update imageuncat.py to focus on templates
Product: Pywikibot
Version: core (2.0)
Hardware: All
URL: https://git.wikimedia.org/blob/pywikibot%2Fcore/HEAD/s
cripts%2Fimageuncat.py
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized

imageuncat.py was written in the time we didn't have proper access to the list
of categories using the api. So we had to parse the page text for categories,
but that didn't catch categories added by template. So it contains quite a bit
of trickery to work around this problem.
Now we do have proper api access a proper implementation becomes possible:
* Loop over templates to see if doesn't contain a template to skip (like
nominated for deletion). This should include template redirects
* Loop over the categories.
* Check for each category if it's hidden
* If you find a category that is not hidden, break
* If you finish without finding a category that's not hidden -> tag it
It's should be written with a Class (instead of the different functions we have
right now).
We probably want to add a bit of caching of the categories at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MostLinkedCategories so we don't
have to look these up a gazillion times.
