- Purpose: Fill in superlatives, exactly as is currently done manually.
- Restrictions for generating entries:
- Entry must not already exist.
- Root form must link the superlative one or two lines after the ===Adjective=== heading.
- Inflection can be provided by regular text wikification, or any other template that wikifies terms.
- All but the last
threetwo characters of the root form must match the superlative form to be auto-generatred in this manner. - Auto-generated only if there is no other inflected form (e.g. any verb or noun inflection).
- ===Adjective=== header of root term must be within an ==English== language section.
Method
- Analyze the "latest" XML dump.
- Find all words that are linked (text or any template.)
- For undefined entries, use a preload template to generate text.
- Magic: Upload using the pywikipedia tool pagesfromfile.py as so:
