Gadget for subst'ing Cite_journal

I have created a quick gadget {subst:Template:Fcite_journal/subst|...} which can store subst'ed {Cite_journal} entries as simple wiki-text, omitting the <span class=...> and tedious COinS metadata. Unfortunately, there are still some formatting characters stored, such &#32 for space and "<b/>;" for semicolons, due to restrictions in storing lead-spaces or semicolons in text. However, the resulting text is portable to other wikis, which lack {Cite_journal}. Example (edit this talk-topic and look inside for results):

{{subst:Fcite journal/subst
| last1 = Chin | first1 = H. B. | last2 = Sipe | first2 = T. A. 
| last3 = Elder | first3 = R.   | last4 = Mercer | first4 = S. L. 
| last5 = Chattopadhyay | first5 = S. K. | last6 = Jacob | first6 = V. 
| last7 = Wethington | first7 = H. R. | last8 = Kirby | first8 = D. 
| last9 = Elliston | first9 = D. B. 
| doi = 10.1016/j.amepre.2011.11.006 
| title = The Effectiveness of Group-Based Comprehensive Risk-Reduction and Abstinence Education Interventions to
 Prevent or Reduce the Risk of Adolescent Pregnancy, Human Immunodeficiency Virus, and Sexually Transmitted Infections 
| journal = American Journal of Preventive Medicine 
| volume = 42 | issue = 3 | pages = 272–294 | year = 2012 
| pmid = 22341164 | pmc = 
| url = http://www.ajpmonline.org/article/S0749-3797(11)00906-8/abstract
}}

Subst'ed result: Chin, H. B.; Sipe, T. A.; Elder, R.; Mercer, S. L.; Chattopadhyay, S. K.; Jacob, V.; Wethington, H. R.; Kirby, D.; et al. (2012). "The Effectiveness of Group-Based Comprehensive Risk-Reduction and Abstinence Education Interventions to Prevent or Reduce the Risk of Adolescent Pregnancy, Human Immunodeficiency Virus, and Sexually Transmitted Infections". American Journal of Preventive Medicine  42 (3): 272–294. . PMID 22341164.
The {Fcite_journal/subst} handles most options of {Cite_journal} and puts "et al." for author9. Meanwhile, I am still working with Template:If to replace the "&#32" with simple spaces, but feel free to use it as needed. I know many articles have like "46" {cite_journal} entries, which can be too tedious for wiki-reformatting by hand. The next step, below, is to replace all {cite_pmid} entries.

Subst'ing Cite_pmid to Cite_journal to Fcite_journal/subst: To answer your original problem, edit the new page twice, copying all {cite_pmid} to the new page. First subst all of the {cite_pmid|222333} as slashed {subst:cite_pmid/222333|noedit}, and then re-edit that subst'ed page and subst all the new {cite_journal} entries:

• Edit 1: Subst every {cite_pmid} with "/"

{subst:cite_pmid/111222|noedit}

{subst:cite_pmid/111333|noedit}

{subst:cite_pmid/111444|noedit}

Upon SAVE, all {cite_pmid/...} become {cite_journal} entries.

• Edit 2: Subst every {cite_journal} with "F /subst"

{subst:Fcite_journal/subst |... pmid=111222|...}

{subst:Fcite_journal/subst |... pmid=111333|...}

{subst:Fcite_journal/subst |... pmid=111444|...}

By that 2-step process, then all {cite_pmid} will become simple wiki-text cites with no more templates in use. Should take just a few minutes to convert all 46 {cite_pmid} to clean, portable wiki-text. Ask below if any questions. -Wikid77 (talk) 19:29, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello! According to this page, the project is supposed to go on line in autumn 2012. --Eike sauer (talk) 14:33, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Danke schoen! —Cupco 20:04, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi! Concerning your message in the "Auskunft": Thank you very much, although most of us are not directly involved. ;) Looking at your machine translated text (the term "deutsches Volk" is somewhat unusal nowadays, see Volk (disambiguation)), it might be better you just ask in English though. :) Most poeple will understand it anyhow. --Eike (Diskussion) 19:29, 11.

Income inequality in the US

Please stop dumping junk into the article. The article is about income inequality, not tax policy and employment. See here. --BoogaLouie (talk) 01:08, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Feminist economics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Inequity (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
