Say you have a #mediawiki with a lot of uncategorized pages.
How can you batch add/edit categories without going page by page?
Playing around with cat-a-lot, but it seems not possible to use it on Special:AllPages.

There's a category.py so if you have a list of titles to work with it most of the work is done. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/category.py
If you don't have a list of titles and you prefer a GUI with checkboxes, perhaps ReplaceText can do the job. You just need to be careful with regular expressions as it can be quite disruptive! https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Replace_Text

I sadly have to be honest with myself, that I should probably just do it all manually, once, and afterwards most new pages will be given categories as they are written 🤷 it is only about 100... https://wiki.kanthaus.online/Special:AllPages?from=&to=&namespace=0&hideredirects=1
