Hi,

I have to wiki sites. Let's say wiki#1 and wiki#2.

I have prepared many articles at wiki#1, and now I want to export them to wiki#2.

So far I understand what to do.

But now I want not to delete the articles from wiki#1, but to leave external redirects to the same articles on wiki#2.

How can I do that?

I have hundreds of articles, I don't like to edit every single manually.

Consider Pywikibot

Isn't there any command like

#redirect [wiki#2 $NameOfArticle]

?

maybe manual:$wgDisableHardRedirects.

See also help:interwiki and manual:$wgRedirectSources

I had another idea.

Is it possible to take many articles and edit them with the same text?

So that the written text will be saved as the content or many chosen articles at the same time.

Thanks either way.

If you have command line access to the wiki, it may be easier to use the edit.php maintenance script

it sounds like you are describing templates

Ha ha thanks Bawolff. Yes it's kind of a way.

Thank you guys anyway, I will look for a way.
