Note that there's a key difference between updating links to articles and links to files. When it comes to files, all you really need to do is to make sure that the file in the link has the proper file name. But when it comes to wiki links, you need to remember that they also have a link text. And the link text can be in a plural form, or have a suffix that you may not expect. For instance, if you were to rename the article Sweet to Candy, you might come up with sentences around your wiki that go like this: All candys are confections. As for that, you'd need that script to consider suffixes, and also store suffixes for special cases and even individual words, which could be extremelly unefficiant. You might also need to consider the fact that the link text could be relevant.

I'd say that the best ways for handling file moves, are:
 * Check for double redirects after the renaming, and if exist, update them
 * If there's a need to, run a bot to update crucial links, but include all possible cases that you can think of for that specific page name
