User:Cedars/gaauto.pl

The following Perl script is a hack that automatically creates a categorized list of good articles in the same format as the good articles page. The script understands quoted, italicized and disguised article links. It uses the existing list as a basis for the new list. It removes old good articles from the revised list and offers the user the opportunity to categorize new good articles. It sorts and counts every article and can automatically adapt to use new headings and subheadings. It allows dual listings and major headings. The script uses cURL to download existing content and the Roman 1.1 Perl module to sort Final Fantasy titles. The script is designed to assist the human editing of Wikipedia articles, not replace it. It is best that users still add and remove articles from the list as they would without the script - this is because they are likely to categorize the items better than the script user. Please feel free to make changes to this page if you feel they would improve the script. If you have comments on the script please feel free to post them on the talk page.

A brief note on output

The script downloads several files to the working directory and outputs two files. The first file, "output_headings.txt", is a file listing the levels and sublevels available for catgorization. This file is output before any requests for categorization are made. The second file, "output.txt", is the formatted wiki-syntax for the list. It may appear corrupt if not opened using UTF-8. The script also outputs a timestamp list of when the most recently added articles were added, "stamp.time", and a backup of the previous version of that list, "stamp.bac". If the timestamp list and backup are dramatically different from each other the script will refuse to run. This is to prevent the timestamp list from becoming distorted and thus damaging the recently added list.
