Tom.Reding added a comment to T354120: Genfixes: <nowiki>[</nowiki> doesn't count as an opening bracket.

What happened: <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[sub-creation]]] was changed to <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[sub-creation]]
What should have happened: <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[sub-creation]]] be changed to either &#91;[[sub-creation]]&#93;, or {{Bracket|[[sub-creation]]}}
Version: I performed the edit, and did so using v6.2.1.0 SVN 12528
Note: {{Bracket}} is not allowed in CS1|2 templates, so the &#91; & &#93; option would be safer. Also, GenFixes already replaces single [ & ] not wrapping a URL with &#91; & &#93;.

@Reedy, in the "Alerts" window, I sometimes see "Long article with a stub tag" in those situations. AWB does not remove the tag in those cases. Is there a character-count grey-area where the alert is displayed, above which it triggers the removal?

I could workaround this entirely (not to obviate this request though) by calculating wordcount directly in the custom module by copying the relevant code. Would that be possible and, if so, could you point me to it?

I'd add %%wordcount%% (or whichever keyword) temporarily to the page to assist with processing. If greater than some #, or some # of digits, I skip the page. If less than some #, or some # of digits, I operate on the page.

I see that this indeed works in the Find field. It does not work in the "Replace with" field, though, inserting "%%pagename%%" literally into the text. Can this be made to work in "Replace with" as well?
