User:Kawkeetcp/Catalog Items Generator

The following is a script I wrote in Python 3.4 that can be used for generating content for the Penguin Style and Furniture & Igloo Catalog pages. However, understand that the current values for the page ranges are specific to the February 2016 Penguin Style and Furniture & Igloo Catalog (since that was when I coded this) and will likely need to be changed for other months. Section names are also subject to change.

If you are only interested in generating items for certain sections (such as "This Month's Fashions"), you only need to worry about changing the page ranges for those sections. Make sure to then only copy those sections from the output text file. For the other item sections, you can just copy them from the previous catalog pages on the wiki, assuming that the items are the same.

If you don't feel like logging in and counting the pages to determine the page numbers, there is a script here that downloads all of the pages and numbers them. You may also have to change some item names that the script generates, as they aren't always consistent with the names of item articles and images on the wiki. Regardless, it's much faster than going through the catalog and manually typing each item name.
