Wikipedia:Featured articles nominated in 2006/scripts

The monthly tables at Wikipedia:Featured articles nominated in 2006 can be generated using the following scripts. The process I've used (on a Mac OS X) is:

1. edit script1 to change the month and run it, producing a file featured.noms.YEAR.MONTH
2. carefully check the output (the script makes a guess about who the nominator is, and is sometimes fooled)
3. run script2 featured.noms.YEAR.MONTH
4. copy and paste the output into the by year list

Please feel free to use and/or improve these scripts.
