Since on the To Do list it says you want to use the EN names for things does this wiki have the Special:ReplaceText function I have seen on other pages.

If I'm not wrong, we don't have Special:ReplaceText, only Special:MassEditRegex which doesn't seem to work on the title. How many pages need an edit? Can I help you? Also, did you join our [[Girls_Frontline_Wiki:About|Discord Channel]] yet? | |||
