Categories
Adding a category to the bottom of a page
Step 1
python add_text.py -cat:"category" -text:"[[Category:New category]]" -pt:1 -except:"New category"
Step 2
python replace.py -cat:"New category" -regex "\[\[Category:(New category)\]\]\r\n([\s\S]*)\r\n\[\[Category:(.*?)\]\]" "\2\n[[Category:\3]]\n[[Category:\1]]" -pt:1
Absolute bottom
python replace.py -cat:"New category" -regex "\[\[Category:(New category)\]\]\r\n([\s\S]*)\r\n\[\[Category:(.*?)\]\]" "\2\n[[Category:\3]]\n[[Category:\1]]" "\[\[Category:(New category)\]\]\r\n\[\[Category:(.*?)\]\]" "[[Category:\2]]\n[[Category:\1]]" -pt:1
Adding FTRW category only if contains {{wikipediainfo}}
python replace.py -catr:"Example" -regex "\{\{[Ww]ikipediainfo([\s\S]*)\[\[Category:(.*?)\]\]" "{{wikipediainfo\1[[Category:\2]]\n[[Category:Example from the real world]]" -excepttext:"Example from the real world" -pt:1
Locations visited by the good Doc
replace.py "-cat:Example" "-regex" "\[\[Category:Locations visited by the(.*?)Doctor\]\]" "[[Category:Example visited by the\1Doctor]]" "-pt:1"

Step 2
Find-and-replace list into a usable format.
python replace.py "[[Category:Videos]]" "{{good video}}" -pt:1 -page:"File:Video name 1" -page:"File:Video name 2"
You may have to handle videos with double quotation marks in their titles, manually.
