where it is not already piped? If so, that is probably fine, as I doubt it is used in this full capacity in many places, and once the bot run is done, these can be done manually. Equally, it would be fine I would have thought for the bot to add piping to an unpiped link while keeping the prose intact, if that is what you meant.
418:
en the UK and other jurdisdictions, so it is not helpful to make such generalisations. This is a bot, it won't know if it is changing the context of prose or not by removing UK or United
Kingdom from article text. Tim, I am still unclear with your answer, are you saying the bot won't change the link
282:
There are plenty of articles where 'next uk general election' has been linked in its titled form without piping, because it makes sense in prose. What happens then? Obviously subbing 'uk general election, 2010' into a sentence is not good prose.
370:
MickMacNee, because it nearly all cases where it is used the fact the article is talking about
British politics has already been established, and hence "UK" or "United Kingdom" is unnecessary and unsightly.

has closed. I agree this is a job for AWB. I've started, but probably won't be able to finish for a few days. If anyone wishes to pick this up please do, otherwise I guess it will wait until then.

Tim, can you please change the code so that it changes the link title to "General
Election 2010" within an election-result box, in accordance with the established convention?
297:
Someone needs to check all the pages once the bot has run anyway. "Next UK general election" and "Next United
Kingdom general election" are near-invariably bad prose as it is.
172:
168:
433:
Yes, right now I would only be changing piped links. That way, the bot won't screw up any article prose. I could have the bot log all links that are

I did not think that would be a good idea to do a mass renaming of links. I will change the bot to do that if there is consensus here, however.

Thanks earwig. I updated the code so that it will preserve the link name, so the displayed text will not change, only the link.

401:
Wereon, I know for a fact it is used in article prose where it is necessary to distinguish betProxy-Connection: keep-alive

there is a pipe. Im not sure what you mean by ""General
Election 2010" within an election-result box"? Can you elaborate?

Note there are comparatively few links still needing moving, it may be better just to AWB the remaining ones.
