[14:18:58] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Nikki> ah, the Unicode classes... I think there's another python regex module that supports those
[14:20:26] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <jhsoby> Galder You can test your regex in https://regex101.com/ (choose Python for your flavour in the sidebar)
[14:21:05] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Nikki> https://pypi.org/project/regex/ seems to be what I'm thinking of
[14:21:34] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <jhsoby> Wouldn't that require changing how pywikibot itself handles regex? Could get complicated quickly (re @Nikki: https://pypi.org/project/regex/ seems to be what I'm thinking of)
[14:21:59] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> the regex is correct, but pywikibot can't handle the \p{L} part
[14:22:47] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Nikki> is there another pywikibot? I've only used it by loading it in my own scripts
[14:22:56] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <jhsoby> or it could be as simple as changing import re to import <something> as re in a strategic place, i don't know how intercompatible that is
[14:24:10] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Nikki> either way it says "This regex implementation is backwards-compatible with the standard ‘re’ module, but offers additional functionality." so I assume you can just "re" with "regex" after installing it
[14:28:08] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> so... do I need to install something?
[14:31:38] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> because updating regex didn't work
[14:39:15] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> I can make it by hand using \n\:(A[a-záéíóúàèìòùſ]*), but this is not the best solution
[14:40:32] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Nikki> if you want to use the regex module, you'd need to install it, yes. I can't really help with that though, I'm not at the computer and I'm also not that familiar with python
[14:51:56] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <RachelFarrand> I saw that! It’s so sad. 🐐 (re @fuzheado: @RachelFarrand - Goats are on the chopping block in English Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:WikiLove.js)
[15:40:56] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <edoderoo> pip install regex should install the module, and then the script can import regex
[16:22:55] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <fuzheado> I have taken a bold stand - I saw that! It’s so sad. 🐐 (re @RachelFarrand: I saw that! It’s so sad. 🐐)
[16:23:12] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <fuzheado> I have taken a bold stand - 🐐- https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki_talk:WikiLove.js&diff=986720653&oldid=986619884&diffmode=source (re @RachelFarrand: I saw that! It’s so sad. 🐐)
[16:40:43] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <RachelFarrand> hahahhhahahah!! "Can you milk cats? Do cats provide fibers and textiles for Brooklyn hipsters? Can they methodically clear unwanted vegetation? Do they comically faint when scared? There should be a place in this world for both cats and goats. Hircine and caprine are right on the cusp of being household words."  You make some very excellent points
[17:02:23] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> No! (re @edoderoo: pip install regex should install the module, and then the script can import regex)
[17:04:10] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <chicocvenancio> What exactly are you typing? (re @Galder: No!)
[17:04:50] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> Pip install regex. But the error remains
[17:05:37] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> I can insert the special characters I have in the text, but for Wikimedia it would be especially important to have all kind of characters included
[17:06:41] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <chicocvenancio> What are you typing to get the error, what are you running?
[17:24:49] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> This (re @Galder: hello! I'm trying some edits using pywikibot and regex but it seems that I can't use \n\:(A\p{L}*) as code)
[17:25:40] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <chicocvenancio> that is not a command Galder. are you just typing \n\:(A\p{L}*) in the command prompt?
[17:26:29] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> Pwb.py replace.py -regex -file:xxxx
[17:26:59] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> And then when asked the previous line
[17:32:49] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <chicocvenancio> then, if you edit replace.py you should be good
[17:33:30] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <chicocvenancio> line 144 should read import regex as re currently it should just be import re https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/pywikibot/core/+/HEAD/scripts/replace.py#144
[17:34:14] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <chicocvenancio> you must install regex with pip install regex before, but you said that is done. (re @Galder: Pip install regex. But the error remains)
[17:43:41] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Galder> Thanks (re @chicocvenancio: line 144 should read import regex as re currently it should just be import re https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/pywikibot/core/+/HEAD/scripts/replace.py#144)
[17:44:07] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <chicocvenancio> you're welcome
[17:45:48] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <edoderoo> This should be in a terminal, not in your python script (re @edoderoo: pip install regex should install the module, and then the script can import regex)
[22:18:20] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Maarten> \n\:(A[^\s]*) 
[22:18:21] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Maarten> That probably works (re @Galder: I can make it by hand using \n\:(A[a-záéíóúàèìòùſ]*), but this is not the best solution)
