Hi, is it possible to develop script like Google translator gadget but for Wiktionary that can use Wiktionary definition instead of Google translation? I saw that gadget that works with double click and transfer your to Wiktionary but in my opinion popup gadget are much useful.yours Reza1615 ( talk) 21:15, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello PleaseStand,
Would you know of any bot (or script or anything like this) to automatize reference formatting? For example one that would turn a ref like [1] into a ref like [2]
Thanks. Nodar95 ( talk) 20:01, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
The 1.19 upgrade seems to have broken your userinfo script, leaving me bereft without intimate details of every editor whose userspace I touch. Any chance you could take a look at it and see if you can figure out where it's gone wrong? The denizens of #wikimedia-tech on IRC have offered that if you need help figuring out the borkage, you can go to mw:Talk:RL/MGU and mw:RL/MGU. Thanks! A fluffernutter is a sandwich!

I'm leaving this message for all recent contributors to Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts.
This scripts listing page is in dire need of cleanup. To facilitate this, I've created a new draft listing at Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts cleanup. You're invited to list scripts you know to be currently working and relevant. Eventually this draft page can replace the current scripts listing.
If you'd like to comment or collaborate on this proposal, see the discussion I started here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject User scripts#Scripts listing cleanup project. Thanks! Equazcion (talk) 00:19, 25 Mar 2012 (UTC)
I invite you to the yearly Berlin hackathon. It's 1-3 June and registration is now open. If you need financial assistance or help with visa or hotel, just mention it in the registration form.
This is the premier event for the MediaWiki and Wikimedia technical community. We'll be hacking, designing, and socialising, primarily talking about ResourceLoader and Gadgets ( extending functionality with JavaScript), the switch to Lua for templates, Wikidata, and Wikimedia Labs.
Our goals for the event are to bring 100-150 people together, including lots of people who have not attended such events before. User scripts, gadgets, API use, Toolserver, Wikimedia Labs, mobile, structured data, templates -- if you are into any of these things, we want you to come!
I also thought you might want to know about other upcoming events where you can learn more about MediaWiki customization and development, how to best use the web API for bots, and various upcoming features and changes. We'd love to have power users, bot maintainers and writers, and template makers at these events so we can all learn from each other and chat about what needs doing.
Check out the the developers' days preceding Wikimania in July in Washington, DC and our other events.
Best wishes! - Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation's Volunteer Development Coordinator. Please reply on my talk page, here or at mediawiki.org. Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Volunteer Development Coordinator 14:39, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello, now it's already quite some time, but you informed of some issues w/ my script. Today, I've had time to work on those, and AFAICS these no longer apply. Feel free to have a look at User:The Evil IP address/hdedit.js. Thanks, -- The Evil IP address ( talk) 17:05, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I am assuming that your Hide Vector sidebar code hides the side bar at the left of this page which is what I am trying to do. I copied and pasted the code into TengoKbailar/vector.js then saved and bypassed cache but I can not make it work :( Oh for a show/hide button at the top of the page how simple. I would appreciate it if you could tell me how to achieve this.
I do not know if I am complicating my life.....when I download pages from toolbox PDF the navigation links do not work, when I create a page using Adobe they work but I have the side bar taking up space.
Thank you

PleaseStand (
talk) Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Green Launching Pad, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Lynch ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

PleaseStand, Thanks so much for helping me clean up the Fathom.com article. I'm new to Wikipedia, obviously, so I didn't know everything that went into the process of creating/editing/'wikifying' a new page. Appreciate all your contributions! I'm learning, and hopefully next time I'll be able to do many of these things myself! Ebeese ( talk) 13:50, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi, PleaseStand. I'm just dropping you a line because the references segregator tool seems to be not available for the last couple of days. I was wondering if you have any idea what's going on? Thanks so much for creating this valuable tool. -- Dianna ( talk) 14:32, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
On 8 October 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Fathom.com, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that Columbia University failed to turn a profit on Fathom.com, an early online learning website? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fathom.com. If you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

You cited bug 40789. Do you know anything more about it? In particular, do you have any idea when the fix will be deployed? (I ask because it has broken User:Scsbot, and we're wondering whether we're going to have to start archiving the Reference Desks by hand.) Thanks. — Steve Summit ( talk) 10:43, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
Every time I try to use the segregator on User:Takuy/sandbox, or Talk:The_New_52/Temp, the green button disappears once I click it. Nothing at all happens. I just click "Edit" in the header, and then click "segregate refs for editing". It goes poof. The pages are forks of The New 52, and it works fine on that page. Any idea what I could be doing wrong? || Tako ( talk) 00:49, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
<refname="[...]"> [...]
, and because of a typo in the "refScanRegex", the script mistakenly identified it as a valid ref tag while scanning the article's wikitext. Once it did, it tried to parse the tag and failed; I fixed the "refScanRegex" to prevent this particular failure from happening again. You may need to
clear your web browser's cache to receive the fix.I noticed you said there was no such thing as a global arbitration committee. We need something like that, and I'm not clear on what was meant here, but I got a response here.

Hi.
I think this template is absolutely brilliant, but i think the right thing to do will be to convert it to Lua (or rather, create a counterpart in Lua that will overcome many of the limitations).
some of the advantages i think we can gain are:
I'd love it if you can peek at Module:Chart, and maybe also at the discussion in Wikipedia:Lua requests, and specifically at Wikipedia:Lua requests#Numerous prior templates.
