Description Siebrand Mazeland 2009-04-25 13:24:49 UTC 
ReplaceText currently allows text replacements in page text and page names. Page text is always active in the pre-selection, while replacing in page names must be enabled with a check box.

This feature request aims to make it possible to *only* pre-select page names in which text is to be replaced, and to exclude the page content in the initial form.

Use case:
On translatewiki.net we often have to deal with renamed messages. To preserve translation history, we move the main page with all its subpages. This feature would make this a lot easier. To make it completely usable, the options from Special:Move should also be there (" Leave a redirect behind", and "Watch this/these page(s)")
Comment 1 Yaron Koren 2009-04-27 21:13:10 UTC 
I'm glad the extension's useful for translatewiki.net - it's great that I can finally give back. This should be fully implemented in the latest version, 0.5 - let me know if there are any problems.
