Adding a category to the bottom of a page
Step 1
python pwb.py add_text -cat:"category" -text:"[[Category:New category]]" -pt:2 -except:"New category"
Step 2
python pwb.py replace -cat:"New category" -regex "\[\[Category:(New category)\]\]\n([\s\S]*)\n\[\[Category:(.*?)\]\]" "\2\n[[Category:\3]]\n[[Category:\1]]" -pt:2

Adding FTRW category only if contains {{wikipediainfo}}

Videos
Good vids
Step 1: DPL search
{{#dpl:
|category=Videos

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