Description

<source> is obsolete See T237267, but in pywikibot are still only source keywords eg.

exceptions = ['comment', 'math', 'nowiki', 'pre', 'startspace',
                'source', 'table']

We should consider backward compatibility both for code and for older MediaWikis, and maybe waiting for T251116. Removing SyntaxHighlight as this task requires no change to the extension.

matej_suchanek renamed this task from replace <source> by <syntaxhighlightt> in pywikibot scripts to replace <source> by <syntaxhighlight> in pywikibot scripts.Jul 14 2020, 11:01 AM

Pywikibot uses syntaxhighlight as alias for source.

Really? I found this word only in 4 files.

And what about exceptions in cosmetic_changes.py as stated above?

Yes I am. See textlib.py line 342+ and the corresponding textlib.replaceexept https://codesearch.wmcloud.org/pywikibot/?q=syntaxhighlight&i=nope&files=&repos=
Probably we can change the usage vice versa but waiting for T251116 is appropriate then.
