I was able to boot my Mac into Windows and get it done, but that's not an option for everyone. The only thing I can suggest is to have another admin on wiki (using Windows) do it for you, or see if you can get on someone else's Windows machine to do it.

There's something called pywikibot for Mac, but it looks far more complicated than AWB. AWB is written in C# making it .NET based. This means that it usually will not play nicely with other OS's (although I /can/ run it using Wine). The best option for now is to use PyWikipediaBot and hold out for a rumored version of AWB written in Java so that it is cross platform.

What is PyWikipediaBot -- and where do I find it -- and what do I do with it?
