Don't forget to purge the contents of the base page upon creating or editing this subpage.
After page is saved what you see on the left will be replaced by what's shown on the right:
- {{subst:LAuto|Category:test}} = {{ACategory|Test}}
- {{subst:LAuto|:Category:test}} = {{LCategory|Test}}
- {{subst:LAuto|Help:test}} = {{LHelp|Test}}
- {{subst:LAuto|Valve Developer Community:test}} = {{LProject|Test}}
- {{subst:LAuto|test}} = {{L|Test}}
- {{subst:LAuto|Template:test}} = [[Template:test]]
Needed regex to filter out outside links
This regex will replace wikilinks on the current page with subst:LAuto template which after page save will become L* templates (see above, what the substitution does is also visible using the 'Show changes' button).
This method is usable right in the Help:Editing Toolbar under
- go to Advanced -> on the right side 'Search and replace' (magnifying glass icon) -> check 'Treat search string as a regular expression' checkbox
- enter the search/replace text shown lower
- press 'Replace all'
- check with 'Show changes' to see what was changed
- save the page
- Search for:
\[\[(?!#|File(?:[ _]talk)?:|Image(?:[ _]talk)?:|Media:|Template(?:[ _]talk)?:|MediaWiki(?:[ _]talk)?:|Talk:|Category[ _]talk:|Project[ _]talk:|Valve[ _]Developer[ _]Community[ _]talk:|Help[ _]talk:|User(?:[ _]talk)?:|c:|commons:|Dictionary:|Google:|GoogleGroups:|IMDB:|M:|Meta:|Metawikipedia:|MW:|SdkBug:|SourceForge:|Steampowered:|W:|Wiki:|WikiBooks:|Wikipedia:|Wikiquote:|Wiktionary:|WP:)(:?(?:Category|Category|Help|Project|Valve[ _]Developer[ _]Community|Special|)(?:[^\|\]]+))(\|?.*?)\]\]
- Replace with:
{{subst:LAuto|$1$2}}
Current limitations
- makes the link upper case but is not an issue if it has altname or the altname translation is being added anyway
- if link that should have
_is used_will be replaced with spaces. Usually commands or entities will face this but those should use {{ent}} and {{cmd}} anyway so shouldn't be too much of an issue
