Re: [pygame] spammity spam on /wiki/patchesandbugs

Hi,

If you want to start at the top, I can start at the bottom.
    http://www.pygame.org/wiki/map.php

Also, do you have a bitbucket user name?  I'll give you permission to the hg repository... otherwise you would have to do all the changes through the web.  So if you just want to do it through the website, that is fine too.


cheers,

cool, thanks :)

Here is the wiki map of all the pages:
    http://www.pygame.org/wiki/map.php

I wrote "Wiki migration work in progress... https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/wiki/patchesandbugs " on the page... but I guess we don't need to do that.  That's just extra work.

I find it easy to go to the history page, find an old version without spam, and click the revert link.

hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/wiki

There is a script in there wiki2bitbucket.py which downloads the pygame wiki source, then converts it to creole.

python wiki2bitbucket.py patchesandbugs

That creates a patchesandbugs.wiki file.   Which you then need to do a:
    hg add patchesandbugs.wiki && hg commit patchesandbugs.wiki -m "importing old wiki" && hg push



Let me know if that is clear or if it works for you?


cheers,

I'd like to help with the cleanup if I can ... I just dug up my
userinfo and logged into the site.

Do I need to coordinate anything with anybody?
