Would anybody be able to port m:User:Erwin/SBHandler-gadget from meta to en.wikipedia. I have tried to port it manually (using my userspace) but it (at that time) did not work because of something that was not enabled on en.wikipeida. Moreover, I am not knowledgeable in the programming language of the script.
When ported, it would be great if it could be changed to handle the following:
{{
LinkStatusLocal|en.wikipedia.org|open}}
in stead of {{
LinkStatus|open}}
(the script changes the 'open'/'close'-state of the template on meta.When this is working, the script needs tweaking further, as I would like it to be able to handle additions to XLinkBot's revertlist - the 'add' function needs to be duplicated, one for 'add to blacklist' (adds to MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist) and one for 'add to revertlist' (adds to User:XLinkBot/RevertList).
Both the blacklist and the revertlist have logs, which should also be updated according to the addition of the links, these may be formatted slightly different from meta. I have no problem if XLinkBot's-RevertList-Log has to be unified to the Spam-blacklist-Log if that makes programming easier.
Feel free to enable this in e.g. my userspace first, I am of course very willing to test this first as a user-gadget, and I may be able to help tweaking it a bit (I do know how to program).
Thanks! -- Dirk Beetstra T C 09:15, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

mw:Extension:SandboxLink was enabled on enwiki and the old mySandbox gadget was removed. This means that there is no easy way for users to disable the Sandbox link.
I am proposing a CSS-only gadget to replace mySandbox to hide the personal sandbox link added by mw:Extension:SandboxLink to the personal tools menu:
/* _____________________________________________________________________________ * | | * | === WARNING: GLOBAL GADGET FILE === | * | Changes to this page affect many users. | * | Please discuss changes on the talk page or on [[WT:Gadget]] before editing. | * |_____________________________________________________________________________| * * Hide personal sandbox link (added by [[mw:Extension:SandboxLink]]) from the personal tools menu */ */ #pt-sandbox { display: none; }

Hi Gadgeteers! As one who often needs to get revision numbers for specific pages (for copyright/revdel/attribution tagging), I've found it would be most helpful if there was a gadget to display the revision number right there in the main History page where it could be easily Ctrl-C'ed. Just a suggestion looking for a bored coder! Crow Caw 22:20, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
I am proposing to discuss possibility of using a script div.GoogleMap as a default-enabled gadget. Nitobus ( talk) 14:17, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
Some Wikimedia Foundation folks on Meta have developed FormWizard, a neat feature that allows you to create a new page by clicking a button and filling out a form (as opposed to getting an edit window). I specifically would like this for meetups, where you click a button, fill out a few details (name of the event, date, venue, etc.), and then you have a meetup page, easy as that. There are other use cases beyond this; it would help streamline some processes on Wikipedia. However, in order for it to be effective, it would have to be an opt-out gadget (enabled by default). Also, though the FormWizard is still under development, it appears to be stable enough to be used on live pages; see e.g. meta:Grants:PEG/Submit request. Would people support this gadget being enabled? Harej ( talk) 22:37, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
I'm taking this page off of my watchlist. If any progress comes on this front, let me know on my talk page. Thanks! Harej ( talk) 00:05, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
@ Kaldari: I've updated the doc and will continue to do so. I've also launched an additional demo on testwiki, showing that the FormWizard supports multiple portals in the same namespace ( testwiki:Wikipedia:Co-op and testwiki:Wikipedia:WikiProject_Testwiki), as well as multiple wizards per portal (buttons at testwiki:Wikipedia:Co-op/Become_a_mentor and testwiki:Wikipedia:Co-op/Become_a_mentor).
One question for you: where does it make sense to put the configs on enwiki? On test (and Meta) they're subpages of the documentation page, in the Project namespace:

Hi,
The wpxstyling gadget adds some extra styles for the Wikipedia:WikiProject Directory and its subpages. Example with styling and without styling. Normally the CSS could have been inlined into a template, but that would have caused the page to be too large and probably been larger than 2MB.

The JavaScript Standard Library gadget is pretty ancient (2007). At this point it's support for older versions of IE is pointless since the gadget has to be loaded via ResourceLoader and ResourceLoader doesn't support older version of IE. Also most of its JS shims are now in core, except for execScript, and it doesn't look like anything on English Wikipedia uses execScript. [6] I would like to propose that we either move it under the Deprecated header of MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition (which is currently empty) or remove it altogether.

See MediaWiki talk:Gadget-metadata.js § 2015 overhaul. Long story short: I'm overhauling the assessment metadata gadget code, taking over as maintainer (current maintainer hasn't edited for approx. 3 years), and would like some quick review and/or testing of the revised code, which I've posted at User:Nihiltres/Gadget-metadata.js, before I update the main script. {{ Nihiltres | talk | edits}} 15:51, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
Hi there,
For some reason the GoogleTrans gadget is loading intermittently. Sometimes it loads (check MORE menu item to see if it has). When it does load there is no javascript error message. When it doesn't load the following javascript error message can be seen:
TypeError: Unable to get value of the property 'data': object is null or undefinedTypeError: Unable to get value of the property 'data': object is null or undefined
I assume this is a wiki thing since the gadget was last changed two weeks ago, and has run well since then. MediaWiki hasn't been updated, according to SignPost, either.

How about a feature where you can take the intersection of two categories. Let's say you had two categories:
Both groups are a little too big to go through by eye, but the intersection of the two lists would suddenly give you a nice concise list of french sprinters who were at the 1984 games. It's not really worth making a categories for this but the intersection of the two categories would be really useful behavior.

Is there a gadget for easily searching for external links using Special:LinkSearch? Ideally the user would be able to hover above an external link and a navigational popup would come up and provide the number (or estimated number) of additional links. The popup should contain a link to the full Special:LinkSearch result which has been properly formatted. For example, a use case would be when removing spam because the same URLs are often spammed elsewhere, possibly by different accounts. LinkSearch would be the easiest way to find them. Having the gadget operate here would be helpful too, as it's a tedious process to manually select/copy the suspected spam URL, format it (*.example.com) and submit it to LinkSearch. Thanks.

For at least the past four or five years, I've been cross-wiki importing a script from the Russian Wikipedia that strikes out usernames that have been blocked. I finally bothered to copy and paste the code here: User:Keegan/MarkBlocked.js. Added it to my common.js, performs as it did before (but faster, of course). I think this could make a useful gadget. Keegan ( talk) 23:01, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
A year ago I proposed adding a gadget that displays links to disambiguation pages in orange (so that they can be easily distinguished from other kinds of links and fixed). At the time, the proposal received one supportive comment and one negative comment (that the gadget was too simple). Personally, I think this would be a really useful gadget despite its simplicity. I use it myself on a daily basis to fix disambiguation links. I know there is another user script that also changes the colors of disambiguation links, but it does so in a way that is inefficient (requiring calls to the API), and it also changes the colors of numerous other types of links, which IMO, just makes things confusing. I would like to repropose the DisambiguationLinks gadget since there was no consensus reached last time and a year has passed since then. Kaldari ( talk) 20:41, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

Both groups are a little too big to go through by eye, but the intersection of the two lists would suddenly give you a nice concise list of french sprinters who were at the 1984 games. It's not really worth making a categories for this but the intersection of the two categories would be really useful behavior.

Thanks, that worked. Endo999 ( talk) 20:59, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
The following article shows the progress towards "category intersection". It is a desired feature but not currently implemented

Is there a gadget for easily searching for external links using Special:LinkSearch? Ideally the user would be able to hover above an external link and a navigational popup would come up and provide the number (or estimated number) of additional links. The popup should contain a link to the full Special:LinkSearch result which has been properly formatted. For example, a use case would be when removing spam because the same URLs are often spammed elsewhere, possibly by different accounts. LinkSearch would be the easiest way to find them. Having the gadget operate here would be helpful too, as it's a tedious process to manually select/copy the suspected spam URL, format it (*.example.com) and submit it to LinkSearch. Thanks.

For at least the past four or five years, I've been cross-wiki importing a script from the Russian Wikipedia that strikes out usernames that have been blocked. I finally bothered to copy and paste the code here: User:Keegan/MarkBlocked.js. Added it to my common.js, performs as it did before (but faster, of course). I think this could make a useful gadget.

A year ago I proposed adding a gadget that displays links to disambiguation pages in orange (so that they can be easily distinguished from other kinds of links and fixed). At the time, the proposal received one supportive comment and one negative comment (that the gadget was too simple). Personally, I think this would be a really useful gadget despite its simplicity. I use it myself on a daily basis to fix disambiguation links. I know there is another user script that also changes the colors of disambiguation links, but it does so in a way that is inefficient (requiring calls to the API), and it also changes the colors of numerous other types of links, which IMO, just makes things confusing. I would like to repropose the DisambiguationLinks gadget since there was no consensus reached last time and a year has passed since then. Kaldari ( talk) 20:41, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

, too, since hatnote disambiguation links are almost always intended. {{
