Shell scripts used to get show dates and episode numbers (messes up show 234):

(Yes, that's an inline newline...)

grep pid=[0-9]*\"\> ~/Downloads/rss.aspx.xhtml|sed -e 's/\(pid=[0-9]*\"\>\)/\ \1/g'|sed -e "s/.*pid=[0-9]*\"\>[^S]*\([^<]*\).*/The \1/"|grep Skeptics\ Guide|sed -e "s/\([0-9]\)th[ ,]*/\1 /;s/February/Feb/" | sed -e "s/The Skeptics Guide #\([0-9]*\) - \(.*\)/\* \[\[SGU Episode \1\]\], \2/"

Wow, that's... pretty thorough, I guess. I don't understand much of that, but thanks! Now that you've done all that work, would now be a good time to mention that I'm working on converting the page of SGU episodes from unordered lists to a group of sortable collapsible tables?

Heh heh. It wasn't hardly any work at all. I just copy pasted the output of the script in big swaths. If you have some of the formatting figured out, I can tweak that script to just output all the lines of wikified code for you if it saves you time. --Jestofdoom (talk) 04:59, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
