I think you couldn't find out how because it's a external method. There isn't a button on Wikia that will do the trick, so I use a program called AutoWikiBrowser, which is a MediaWiki editor. You can download it here:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/autowikibrowser/files/autowikibrowser/AutoWikiBrowser6001/

Make sure you click on AutoWikiBrowser6001.zip to get the right version (don't click on the big green button). Once downloaded, open the zip file and launch AutoWikiBrowser.exe.

In the bottom right corner of the program, there is a part that reads en.wikipedia. Click on it and change the project to "custom" from the dropdown. Then change http:// to https:// and type in the whole URL for the wiki you want to edit (so anneofgreengables.fandom.com). Click OK and then click on the red box that says User:, also in the bottom right corner. Here you can log on with your regular username and password (I think this part is straightforward). If you do it right then your username should be in the bottom right corner in green. Now you are set up and ready to edit. I'll give you an example of editing.

To change the links from Anne of Avonlea (radio drama) to Anne of Avonlea (1979 radio drama), I clicked on the Source dropdown on the left (under "make list") and selected What links here (all NS). I typed Anne of Avonlea (radio drama) in the box below and clicked the "make list" button. This created a list of all pages linking to Anne of Avonlea (radio drama). Then it was a matter of ticking the "find and replace box", then filling in the fields in "normal settings". Lastly, I clicked on the "start" tab and clicked "start" to preview edit changes, then "save" to save the page (and so on for the rest of the articles).

If you're sure about what you're doing, you can also click on the "bot" tab to set up autosave. Also, there are many more things you can do, so feel free to tinker. (Often people create a separate bot account for semi-automated edits like these, but when I began using AWB I didn't bother because I thought I would only use it occasionally and on this wiki.)

Hope this helps and isn't too complicated. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask :)
