add subtitles with [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Technical/Silly bespoke scripts#Subtitler|Silly Bespoke Subtitler]]The long list of retrieve_diff calls has to be filled in manually with issue dates and permalink URLs of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost revisions that reflect what the issue was on that date. Why manually? Mostly, because it's impossible to tell without looking which is the canonical set of blurbs for an issue -- the first revision on that date might have typoes in it that later get fixed, et cetera. Hard to tell what the deal is. And the "new issue" edit summaries aren't consistent enough to use regex to figure it out algorithmically. So it is better to just do by hand.
The following script will give you an appropriate hunk of crap to slap into the individual issue page that adds sub= params to the articles in the issue, and even print an edit link.
