Help me!

I need to know how to upload a text file. The search and replace function in the on-line editor is broken and I need to edit an article in vi and then upload the text file as a replacement for the existing article. BurroLoco (talk) 19:55, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Then what you're looking for is not uploading a file. You have used the source editor; you can copy the wiki code of the article you wish to edit into vi, search-and-replace there, and copy-paste it back into the source editor. Huon (talk) 20:09, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
