Lemma List

That's because it's not just {{head}} that adds the category, but Module:headword itself now. So it also works for all the modules that use it, like Module:en-headword which all the English ones use. But there may still be some that don't use the module or the template yet, so we need to find them. Not easy, but still...

There are also several thousand entries that have no headword template at all, if either of you are looking for something tedious to do.

Do you think you could find them in a dump? Something like finding all entries with three quotes or a semicolon at the beginning of a line should find most of them. A bot might then be able to thin the list out enough that doing the rest by hand becomes feasible.

Actually, I should just be able to use the pagelinks dump to find what links to Module:head, and then subtract that from the set of page titles.

That won't find entries where some sections use a template but not others.

That's true, I might do that one later. In the mean time, there are 367,479 entries that probably have no headword template (most of them are Italian, ~64,000 are not). Here's the list: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28940500/no%20head.txt.gz

Thank you for that list. Can I ask how it was generated?

I've started working on the list, but it will take a while to work through it. Right now the bot is replacing all instances of a bolded page title on a line by itself with {{head|xx}}. That seems to be catching almost all of them now.

I would appreciate it if you could give updates regularly as the dumps are released, so that I know what still needs to be done. Also I'd like to request that the list contains only the page names (not the languages), and also sorted and with duplicates removed. Would that be possible for the next dump?

Of course. And I just split pages by language section, then looked for any lines containing '''PAGENAME'''.

That won't have caught them all, but it's a good start. Thank you.
