# Wikipedia Disambiguation Link Fixer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This Flask web application is designed to help fix disambiguation links in
|
|
|
|
Wikipedia articles. It makes use of various Python modules, including Flask,
|
|
|
|
SQLAlchemy, lxml, and Jinja2, to provide a user-friendly interface for editing
|
|
|
|
and saving changes to Wikipedia articles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Retrieve a list of articles with disambiguation links from
|
|
|
|
[dplbot.toolforge.org](https://dplbot.toolforge.org/articles_with_dab_links.php).
|
|
|
|
- Edit Wikipedia articles directly within the app.
|
|
|
|
- Automatically generate edit summaries for your changes.
|
|
|
|
- OAuth integration for secure Wikipedia authentication.
|
