Existing Tags fields were messy (mixed case, duplicates, lots of one-off tags) and 28 posts had none at all. Normalized casing, deduped, mapped common synonyms (textmate/xcode/git -> tools, os x variants -> mac-os-x, etc) onto a canonical set, and added 1-2 canonical tags to every previously untagged post so most posts now carry at least one useful tag. Specific extra tags were kept alongside the canonical ones rather than stripped. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

| WikipediaFS on Linux, in Python | Sami Samhuri | 7th May, 2006 | 2006-05-07T20:49:00-07:00 | coding, python, linux, mediawiki, wikipediafs |
Until now I've been using my own version of pywikipedia for scripting MediaWiki, and it works well. But I read about WikipediaFS and had to check it out. It's a user space filesystem for Linux that's built using the Python bindings for FUSE. What it does is mounts a filesystem that represents your wiki, with articles as text files. You can use them just like any other files with mv, cp, ls, vim, and so on.
There hasen't been any action on that project for 13 months though, and it doesn't work on my wiki (MediaWiki 1.4.15) so I'm going to try and make it work after I upgrade to MediaWiki 1.6.3 tonight. This will be pretty cool when it works. I haven't looked at the code yet but it's only 650 lines.
