Manual:Pywikibot/pagefromfile.py/en

pagefromfile.py is a script used to upload pages to a wiki from a text file.

This bot takes its input from the UTF-8 text file that contains a number of pages to be put on the wiki. The pages should all have the same beginning and ending text (which may not overlap). The beginning and ending text is not uploaded with the page content by default.

It is possible to define a separator after the 'append' modes which is added between the existing and the new text. For example a parameter   would add 'foo' between them. A new line can be added between them by specifying '<tvar|>\n</>' as a value.
