India Assessment 2012 and AWB
Hi Ssriram, thanks for replying. Even i wanted to use AWB,(i even took the permission for AWB for this) i have installed the kingpin plugin and went through the AWB manual as well, but unable to load the list of categories in awb, for assessment. I would be glad if you can guide me through the procedure to use awb for assessment, i tried following the Guide3 for india assessment also but could not help myself out. Some help will be very much appreciated. (i am online at the moment)--  Ð ℬig XЯaɣ   13:34, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Choose categories like category:Unassessed Indian politics articles. List ->Convert to talk page will load the talk page.  You can either load another awb window to preview the actual articles.  There are certain options to find and replace given parameters.  Goto Options ->Advanced settings(click on enabled).  Create a find and replace with relevant parameters of conversion.  ex. Find  and replace with  .  You can choose relevant skip options.. you are ready to go.  If you are facing technical issues, try re-installing AWB.  Kingbot operates only for the directory it is installed, so keep the dll in the folder where awb exe is present.  Ssriram mt (talk) 13:51, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Q2. What actually do we place in find and replace boxes, i tried entering an 'empty template' in find box and a 'filled up template' in rreplace box and the result is the 'filled up template'was copied 4-5 times :( --  Ð ℬig XЯaɣ   14:32, 24 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Q1: Double click on awb icon and it will open another window. In that window, you can actually load the contents and for the main window it should be talk pages.  Q2:  You will have various patterns - Find  and replace with  .  If you give only part of it, it repeats many times, so prefer chosing the whole of the template.  You can create many rules for various patterns. Ssriram mt (talk) 19:13, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
