Hi Anomie, AnomieBOT made a few edits recently to User:Becky Sayles/sandbox. I think it happened because I forgot to include {{User Sandbox}} on the page. I'm not familiar with AnomieBOT's functions, but I think it may be helpful for you to take a look at those edits. I imagine that if the page had been something other than a sandbox, the edits might not be desirable. B E C K Y S A Y L E S 01:39, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

I've got a design flaw in a script, and I need leads on possible approaches for fixing it. I'm hoping you can point me in the right direction...
I'm working on a script to make browsing and reading lists on Wikipedia easier. It's called User:The Transhumanist/anno.js. It toggles the hiding of annotations, so you can turn them off when you just want to see the items listed for quick browsing. And you can reactivate them again when you come across a term you don't know. For example...
It makes:
Look like this:
Rather than show/hide DOM elements, which would require inserting divs into articles in order for those pages to work with the script, when the toggle is activated the script saves the content and then uses regex to remove the annotations. Pressing the toggle again gets the saved state back.
The problem is that the view port shifts position relative to what the user was looking at. When annotations before his location in the article are removed, the text he was looking at disappears off the top of the view port. When those annotations are restored, it pushes the text in the view port down.
What I'd like to do is have the top line of the topmost bulleted item in the view port retain its position when the toggle is pressed, with everything else being updated above and below it. If there are no bulleted items on the screen, then the topmost line of text should retain its position.
This is where I'm stuck.
Everything I've read so far about view port location adjustment requires doing so relative to an identifiable DOM element.
<li> tags apparently are not specific enough.
Is there a way to apply regex to just the content of the viewport?
If so, I could insert a div (with ID), and then determine and save the location of the div, and work off of that.
I'm hoping you can point me in the right direction.
Sincerely, The Transhumanist 11:36, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
<span>
with a particular class instead of cloning the whole page, inject a stylesheet rule for that class into the page, and toggle the display property.<span class="anno">annotation goes here</span>
, like you said, and then I used .hide and .show on the class, like this: $( ".anno" ).hide();
$( ".anno" ).hide();
individually adjusts every 'anno' tag in the page, while if you injected a stylesheet rule and changed its display
you're letting the browser handle the element-adjusting. Chances are it doesn't matter a great deal.

Heya Anomie, hope you're doing well.
On
User:Anomie/talklink you mention that if a user wants to change the colors displayed on the talk page tab they should omit importStylesheet('User:Anomie/talklink.css'); // Linkback: [[User:Anomie/talklink.css]]
from their common.js. Is there a way to customize the color without omitting that line? The reason I'm asking is that I'm working on implementing the script as a gadget on my home wiki, and gadgets don't allow that level of granularity (you check the box, you get both the js and css). I still want users to be able to customize the colors via their common.css, but I'm unsure as to how to do it. Any suggestions?

Beginning in September 2017, the Wikimedia Foundation Anti-harassment tool team will be conducting a survey to gauge how well tools, training, and information exists to assist English Wikipedia administrators in recognizing and mitigating things like sockpuppetry, vandalism, and harassment.
The survey should only take 5 minutes, and your individual response will not be made public. This survey will be integral for our team to determine how to better support administrators.
To take the survey sign up here and we will send you a link to the form.

Hi Anomie,
Here's a summary/update on my script writing efforts, in case you would like to provide insight of any kind...
As you might remember, I'm in the process of building scripts for viewing outlines and for outline development.
So far, there is:
It is my objective to build a set of scripts that fully automate the process of creating outlines. This end goal is a long way off ( AI-complete?). In the meantime, I hope to increase editor productivity as much as I can. Fifty percent automation would double an editor's productivity. I think I could reach 80% automation (a five-fold increase in productivity) within a couple years. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
There's more:

Your bot's edit at this page revision incorrectly transcribed two parameters – see bottom of infobox – as refcoachyears and refcoachteams (instead of repcoachyears and repcoachteams) due to a typo in your coding. Please fix the typo and redo all other instances affected by this error. -- Ham105 ( talk) 16:52, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

But it looks like AnomieBot III deleted List of Little Bill episodes as a broken redirect to a deleted page, except it wasn't a redirect at the time, it was a full-fledged article. I've restored the article, but could you take a look and either explain what I got wrong, or figure out what needs fixed? Thanks. -- Floquenbeam ( talk) 22:11, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
Hi @ Anomie:
Is the source code for your not readily available or:
...but this snazzy userbox you created, User:Anomie/User Admin adminstats, seems to be broken for some reason. It's decided that neither you or I are admins at the moment, and last I checked, I still was. Honestly I'm more curious about the bug than anything else, because if there are some bits of Wikipedia that don't know we're admins, that might be a problem at some point.

Hello, Cyberpower76 referred me to you. When I try to login to IABot to run it manually, I get a blank page and the expected popup that asks if I want to allow the app to access my account doesn't appear. This started happening late last week. If there's anything that can be done, I would appreciate your assistance. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 16:08, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

Anomie, I'm working on a userscript to strip redlinks from outlines, and I've run into a problem that I'm hoping you know how to fix.
Please see my post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject JavaScript#Nested RegExp.
Thank you.

Heya Anomie, hope you're doing well.
On
User:Anomie/talklink you mention that if a user wants to change the colors displayed on the talk page tab they should omit importStylesheet('User:Anomie/talklink.css'); // Linkback: [[User:Anomie/talklink.css]]
from their common.js. Is there a way to customize the color without omitting that line? The reason I'm asking is that I'm working on implementing the script as a gadget on my home wiki, and gadgets don't allow that level of granularity (you check the box, you get both the js and css). I still want users to be able to customize the colors via their common.css, but I'm unsure as to how to do it. Any suggestions?

At AnomieBOT's SPERTable, there's a possible bug: it's saying there's an open request at Unite the Right rally, only it takes me to one of the Talk page's archives with no unanswered request. Is there something you can do about this? jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) ( talk) 21:29, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
Hello,
Beginning in September 2017, the Wikimedia Foundation Anti-harassment tool team will be conducting a survey to gauge how well tools, training, and information exists to assist English Wikipedia administrators in recognizing and mitigating things like sockpuppetry, vandalism, and harassment.
The survey should only take 5 minutes, and your individual response will not be made public. This survey will be integral for our team to determine how to better support administrators.
To take the survey sign up here and we will send you a link to the form.
We really appreciate your input!
Please let us know if you wish to opt-out of all massmessage mailings from the Anti-harassment tools team.

Hi Anomie,
Here's a summary/update on my script writing efforts, in case you would like to provide insight of any kind...
As you might remember, I'm in the process of building scripts for viewing outlines and for outline development.
So far, there is:
It is my objective to build a set of scripts that fully automate the process of creating outlines. This end goal is a long way off ( AI-complete?). In the meantime, I hope to increase editor productivity as much as I can. Fifty percent automation would double an editor's productivity. I think I could reach 80% automation (a five-fold increase in productivity) within a couple years. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
There's more:
Script and script feature requests (for outlines) are welcome. The Transhumanist 06:45, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Are you sure you received no notification for this ping?
