I'll solve this issue with a pywikipedia script, simply writing into the
text 2.1.x, 2.1.x, 2.1.x.... then replacing one by one 2.1.x strings with
2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3.... :
.....
n=1
while "2.1.x" in text:
text=text.replace("2.1.x","2.1."+str(n),1)
n+=1
....
but this would be my way, since I currently use interactive python scripts
to work on wiki pages.
