Example Usage

=============

Get a page::

    wiki = ScratchWiki()

    wiki.login("blob8108", password)

    sandbox = wiki.page("User:Blob8108/Sandbox")

Edit page::

    # Get the page

    contents = sandbox.read()

    # Change

    contents += "\n This is a test!"

    summary = "Made a test edit"

    # Submit

    sandbox.edit(contents, summary)

List pages in category::

    for page in wiki.category_members("Redirects"):

        print page.title

Remove all uses of a template::

    target_pages = wiki.transclusions("Template:unreleased")

    # Sort by title because it's prettier that way

    target_pages.sort(key=lambda x: x.title)

    

    # Main namespace only

    target_pages = [p for p in target_pages if p.query_info()['ns'] == 0]

    

    for page in target_pages:

        page.replace("{{unreleased}}", "")
