Description John Mark Vandenberg 2014-07-26 15:02:00 UTC

optparser was deprecated in py 2.7
https://docs.python.org/2/library/argparse.html#module-argparse

It is used by editarticle.py

Comment 1 John Mark Vandenberg 2014-11-09 20:52:55 UTC

"Deprecated since version 3.2: The optparse module is deprecated and will not be developed further; development will continue with the argparse module."

https://docs.python.org/3/library/optparse.html

Would that be a task suitable for Google Code-in and would somebody be willing to mentor a student? If so, feel free to add to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in_2014#Proposed_tasks

Comment 3 Fabian 2014-11-10 12:02:44 UTC

That was my intention with marking it as easy. Added it to the proposed tasks.
