Let me start by saying this: This is by and far the most user-friendly counter-vandalism tool I have used. It's got a better interface than Huggle and the fact that you're kept on the same page is a big plus over Twinkle. That being said, there's a couple things I think could be improved.
Overall, this is fantastic and the kind of tool I've always wanted to make but never knew where to begin. I'm really excited to have hopped on it in the beginning, because I have a feeling it'll be commonplace soon enough :) ThadeusOfNazereth Talk to Me! 02:47, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

Would it help you if I tried to help with your documentation some? There's a few things I think I could help with (like for example, rather than going to special pages/recent changes, you can go to recent changes via the interaction heading on the left of the screen. It's just a few things like that and clarifying the color that i mentioned on my talk page. I'd make comments and you could accept or reverse without any chance of hurting my feelings. I just know how much you're doing and thought I might be able to help a touch. Cheers ToeFungii ( talk) 22:28, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Are there welcome messages that can be sent (TW has them). To follow along with AGF and because of a user that i just came across, they made an edit but if I used TW I would have left a welcome message vs editing test.

Firstly, can you replace the "Thumbs up" with something else (like a thumbs up + revert arrow)? I, as a wikiHow contributor, have associated thumbs up with "Thanks" as that is how it is done on wikiHow.
Secondly, have you thought of restricting the tool (at least the instant parts of the tool) to rollbackers and admins? Then edits can be tagged with #mw-rollback as well. A a s i m 03:49, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

@ Ed6767: I just started using RW, and I immediately noticed it does not tell you how many edits you are rolling back when you rollback. This is an important feature which can be found in TW and I suggest putting it on your priority list to implement to RW. I will come back here if I have any other feedback. Otherwise RW is easy to use, well designed and is an overall awesome tool which destroys TW in my opinion. Hillelfrei • talk • 17:21, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

The rollback is now working for me as a autoconfirmed user. But there's something I didn't like very much. Sometimes I right-click to open the user's sandbox in another tab, but this is no longer possible. It would be nice if you had the option to open the "talk" in another tab. ✍ A.WagnerC ( talk) 18:58, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

@ Ed6767: Upon reverting an edit on RedWarn, you are automatically given a pop-up to warn the user. However, if it's a new user who doesn't yet have a talk page, {{welcome-anon-unconstructive}} may be more a more appropriate introduction than a caution. This is an option on TW, what do you think about implementing this to RW? Hillelfrei • talk • 17:13, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

Wanted to let you know that STiki is no longer active which makes Redwarn potentially even more valuable although it would need to incorporate the id'ing of vandalism better like STiki did. You might want to take a look at WikiLoop_Battlefield that is a new vandalism tool trying to start in case you hadn't come across it. ToeFungii ( talk) 23:10, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
Is if there was a tool that would allow me to report content to oversighters. This is because I sometimes come across spreadable content and I would like to be able to report it fast. That would be nice for RW. A a s i m 03:16, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
In future, could redwarn list articles for AfD/speedy/PROD in the future? It'd be a pretty neat feature for article maintenance.

Hi, I am enjoying using the tool as it makes fighting vandalism much easier compared to Twinkle. I especially like the feature where a pop-up like a box appears when 'REDWARN' is clicked on the recent changes page.
The only bug I've noticed is when warning a user on their talk page, RedWarn does not detect any previous warnings and as you can't see the talk page when setting the warning you don't know what the past users history is without making a new tab with the user's talk page.
I know it's probably quite a stretch to fix this but it would improve my experience immensely.--

IMO, RW's interface is much more fluid tham TW, particularly during reverts - however, it would be nice if the single-issues cautions/warnings that are already included in TW are also added here. lavender|(formerly HMSSolent)| lambast 05:07, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
RedWarn is a very helpful and user friendly tool as I inferred based on my first edits using it. However a few more improvements would be helpful-
Hey @ Ed6767: The RedWarn recent changes button isn't showing up for me. Is this something you know how to resolve? Would VPT be able to help? Hillelfrei talk 14:57, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
wikiEditor.recentChanges.openPage(window.location.search.substr(1));
@ CrazyBoy826: That could be it, it only checks is the line starts with two equal signs. Ed6767 ( talk) 01:43, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
I've just started using RedWarn. It works mostly okay, and the design works much better than Twinkle, but there are some things that need improving:
There are also a few small bugs with the display:
It could also be useful if RedWarn also included other options, such as CSD, XfD, or ARV.
Thanks!
P.S. I've made a doppelganger account, RedWarn, to prevent confusion. CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 22:04, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
@ Ed6767: This could be happening because the code inserts the new message under the previous template, but the shared IP notice is under the template and the two are put together. CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 01:31, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

In the rollback, there needs to be a certain number of characters or it will say "You must enter a longer rollback reason." This is unnecessary, as some reasons are short and some may not require a reason at all. CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 15:00, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

03:14, 31 May 2020 (UTC)@ Ed6767: In a previous message, you said that testing these features is difficult because they notify administrators.
However, you can easily test them without notifying admins or causing disruption by constructing fake CSD, XfD, and ARV pages in your userspace, and change the code to put the nomination there instead. Then, you can nominate some other user pages to test them. After this testing is done, you can easily change the code to put the message on the actual pages, and (quickly) test RedWarn on legitimate cases.
For ARV, you can report Sandbox for user warnings on your own user page, and test it lightly on an actual case. CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 15:19, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
My highly wanted feature is to welcome, send new message, send notice, and report from the contributions page. It is very annoying, to have to go to the user page to do various things. Hopefully this gets implemented. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSA talk 15:45, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

What I'm doing now is going to the editfilter log and looking at the contributions of users who have triggered vandalism edit filters. From there, I click "prev" to see the diff and rollback. Then, I go to their talk page and warn them.
However, when I click rollback with Redwarn, it says "redirected to the latest revision" and I have to click the rollback again. This just makes things take twice as long, and what's more, I was already on the latest revision and it just reloaded the page.
Can you figure out what's happening? CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 16:39, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
Append the RedWarn icons to "#siteNotice" and use "float: right; margin-left: 10px;" to put them in the correct place. A a s i m 02:01, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
@ Ed6767: Every time I load a page on Wikipedia, there is a small message saying "your config file is corrupt". I checked all the Redwarn files in my userspace, and there weren't any changes that were made recently. What's happening? Crazy Boy 826 19:02, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
In the preferences, hovering over the sidebar size says "...Use small is your screen is low resolution..." can you change the 1st is to if? Crazy Boy 826 19:24, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Ed6767 I think it would be better for you to action=compare the rollback preview rather than open up an iframe. That way, it does not take as long to load when you click the diff button. A a s i m 19:27, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
I think that saying "Rollback recent rev." is a bit redundant (since 99% of the time the reverted edit will have been within the past few minutes or hours). Also, when adding {{ uw-bio1}}; the edit summary states "New Notice: Adding unreferenced defamatory information about living persons" but I feel that's too bitey as I often use that template for unsourced changes of any kind (including, for example, as mundane things as changing infobox parameters or adding unsourced non-defamatory information) to BLPs, since it communicates clearly that sources are required while linking to relevant policies and being more precise than the generic {{ uw-error1}} or {{ uw-unsourced1}}.
Now to the more technical question: is Opera supported by this? The rollback and everything works fine, but there's no icon for patrol in Special:RecentChanges.
Thanks, RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 15:12, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
I was wondering, can you change the #redwarnmessageid to ?/&redwarn=redwarnmessageid as it breaks another user script that attempts to find missing discussions in archives. (i.e. change #preferencessaved to ?redwarn=preferencessaved. You can do that by doing this:
(new URL(window.location)).searchParams.set("redwarnmessageid", themessageid);

Did you know you can create an edit notice for your talk page (without the need for editintro or anything like that)? You can do so by going to User_talk:Ed6767/Editnotice and paste your message there. Or you can move the editintro to your editnotice page. A a s i m 14:30, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

A relatively minor issue, but nevertheless:
Redwarn seems to insist on <code>== May 2020 ==</code>. On some talk pages, because it was added manually, this is sometimes also <code>==May 2020==</code> (which has no impact on what is displayed). This creates duplicate headers. It would be useful if this insignificant difference could be ignored. Thanks, RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 01:17, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

By far in the history of RedWarn so far, you adding pending changes accept/decline is the MOST USELESS feature. Have you ever seen the default pending changes reviewing interface? It already has accept and decline. Were the buttons not there? We don't need extra buttons; all it does is slow my computer down even more.
And not related to pending changes, RedWarn patrol still doesn't work like
above. I can't see the button. {{

No wonder why you "died" - you've been editing at 3am BST... The Multiple Action Tool is useful, but the "commit selected" button (which is the button that makes the edits) is too similar to the other buttons, so people could get confused.

Hi - I got a belated welcome today on my talk page from someone using RedWarn. The welcome is appreciated, but my initial glance at my watchlist had me jumping, the name REDWARN on my talk page made me think I'd made an error somewhere!
Maybe this is just me... but a "recent edits patrol and warning tool"/"counter-vandalism tool" maybe shouldn't be used for welcoming people? Sends the wrong vibe, in my opinion. Do let me know if I'm barking up the wrong tree.
The tool looks clever and interesting (from my brief read of the page, anyway!) Best wishes, Turini2 ( talk) 22:02, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
Hi Ed- Just alerting you that when I used the "quick rollback non-constructive edit" on this diff, RedWarn reported that it made the rollback, but the history does not show it. I was reverting a session with no net change, so it's not a real problem. I think I have run into this before with RedWarn, and just wanted to let you know. Eric talk 23:52, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

Would it help you if I tried to help with your documentation some? There's a few things I think I could help with (like for example, rather than going to special pages/recent changes, you can go to recent changes via the interaction heading on the left of the screen. It's just a few things like that and clarifying the color that i mentioned on my talk page. I'd make comments and you could accept or reverse without any chance of hurting my feelings. I just know how much you're doing and thought I might be able to help a touch. Cheers ToeFungii ( talk) 22:28, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Are there welcome messages that can be sent (TW has them). To follow along with AGF and because of a user that i just came across, they made an edit but if I used TW I would have left a welcome message vs editing test. They might be in the drop down, am I just missing them? thx ToeFungii ( talk) 02:33, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

Firstly, can you replace the "Thumbs up" with something else (like a thumbs up + revert arrow)? I, as a wikiHow contributor, have associated thumbs up with "Thanks" as that is how it is done on wikiHow.
Secondly, have you thought of restricting the tool (at least the instant parts of the tool) to rollbackers and admins? Then edits can be tagged with #mw-rollback as well. A a s i m 03:49, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

@ Ed6767: I just started using RW, and I immediately noticed it does not tell you how many edits you are rolling back when you rollback. This is an important feature which can be found in TW and I suggest putting it on your priority list to implement to RW. I will come back here if I have any other feedback. Otherwise RW is easy to use, well designed and is an overall awesome tool which destroys TW in my opinion. Hillelfrei • talk • 17:21, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

The rollback is now working for me as a autoconfirmed user. But there's something I didn't like very much. Sometimes I right-click to open the user's sandbox in another tab, but this is no longer possible. It would be nice if you had the option to open the "talk" in another tab. ✍ A.WagnerC ( talk) 18:58, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

@ Ed6767: Upon reverting an edit on RedWarn, you are automatically given a pop-up to warn the user. However, if it's a new user who doesn't yet have a talk page, {{welcome-anon-unconstructive}} may be more a more appropriate introduction than a caution. This is an option on TW, what do you think about implementing this to RW? Hillelfrei • talk • 17:13, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

Wanted to let you know that STiki is no longer active which makes Redwarn potentially even more valuable although it would need to incorporate the id'ing of vandalism better like STiki did. You might want to take a look at WikiLoop_Battlefield that is a new vandalism tool trying to start in case you hadn't come across it. ToeFungii ( talk) 23:10, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
Is if there was a tool that would allow me to report content to oversighters. This is because I sometimes come across spreadable content and I would like to be able to report it fast. That would be nice for RW. A a s i m 03:16, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
In future, could redwarn list articles for AfD/speedy/PROD in the future? It'd be a pretty neat feature for article maintenance.

Hi, I am enjoying using the tool as it makes fighting vandalism much easier compared to Twinkle. I especially like the feature where a pop-up like a box appears when 'REDWARN' is clicked on the recent changes page.
The only bug I've noticed is when warning a user on their talk page, RedWarn does not detect any previous warnings and as you can't see the talk page when setting the warning you don't know what the past users history is without making a new tab with the user's talk page.
I know it's probably quite a stretch to fix this but it would improve my experience immensely.--

IMO, RW's interface is much more fluid tham TW, particularly during reverts - however, it would be nice if the single-issues cautions/warnings that are already included in TW are also added here. lavender|(formerly HMSSolent)| lambast 05:07, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
RedWarn is a very helpful and user friendly tool as I inferred based on my first edits using it. However a few more improvements would be helpful-
Hey @ Ed6767: The RedWarn recent changes button isn't showing up for me. Is this something you know how to resolve? Would VPT be able to help? Hillelfrei talk 14:57, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

@ CrazyBoy826: That could be it, it only checks is the line starts with two equal signs. Ed6767 ( talk) 01:43, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
I've just started using RedWarn. It works mostly okay, and the design works much better than Twinkle, but there are some things that need improving:
There are also a few small bugs with the display:
It could also be useful if RedWarn also included other options, such as CSD, XfD, or ARV.
Thanks!
P.S. I've made a doppelganger account, RedWarn, to prevent confusion. CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 22:04, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
@ Ed6767: This could be happening because the code inserts the new message under the previous template, but the shared IP notice is under the template and the two are put together. CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 01:31, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

In the rollback, there needs to be a certain number of characters or it will say "You must enter a longer rollback reason." This is unnecessary, as some reasons are short and some may not require a reason at all. CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 15:00, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

03:14, 31 May 2020 (UTC)@ Ed6767: In a previous message, you said that testing these features is difficult because they notify administrators.
However, you can easily test them without notifying admins or causing disruption by constructing fake CSD, XfD, and ARV pages in your userspace, and change the code to put the nomination there instead. Then, you can nominate some other user pages to test them. After this testing is done, you can easily change the code to put the message on the actual pages, and (quickly) test RedWarn on legitimate cases.
For ARV, you can report Sandbox for user warnings on your own user page, and test it lightly on an actual case. CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 15:19, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
My highly wanted feature is to welcome, send new message, send notice, and report from the contributions page. It is very annoying, to have to go to the user page to do various things. Hopefully this gets implemented. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSA talk 15:45, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

What I'm doing now is going to the editfilter log and looking at the contributions of users who have triggered vandalism edit filters. From there, I click "prev" to see the diff and rollback. Then, I go to their talk page and warn them.
However, when I click rollback with Redwarn, it says "redirected to the latest revision" and I have to click the rollback again. This just makes things take twice as long, and what's more, I was already on the latest revision and it just reloaded the page.
Can you figure out what's happening? CrazyBoy826 ( talk | contribs) 16:39, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
Append the RedWarn icons to "#siteNotice" and use "float: right; margin-left: 10px;" to put them in the correct place. A a s i m 02:01, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
@ Ed6767: Every time I load a page on Wikipedia, there is a small message saying "your config file is corrupt". I checked all the Redwarn files in my userspace, and there weren't any changes that were made recently. What's happening? Crazy Boy 826 19:02, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
In the preferences, hovering over the sidebar size says "...Use small is your screen is low resolution..." can you change the 1st is to if? Crazy Boy 826 19:24, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Ed6767 I think it would be better for you to action=compare the rollback preview rather than open up an iframe. That way, it does not take as long to load when you click the diff button. A a s i m 19:27, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
I think that saying "Rollback recent rev." is a bit redundant (since 99% of the time the reverted edit will have been within the past few minutes or hours). Also, when adding {{ uw-bio1}}; the edit summary states "New Notice: Adding unreferenced defamatory information about living persons" but I feel that's too bitey as I often use that template for unsourced changes of any kind (including, for example, as mundane things as changing infobox parameters or adding unsourced non-defamatory information) to BLPs, since it communicates clearly that sources are required while linking to relevant policies and being more precise than the generic {{ uw-error1}} or {{ uw-unsourced1}}.
Now to the more technical question: is Opera supported by this? The rollback and everything works fine, but there's no icon for patrol in Special:RecentChanges.
Thanks, RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 15:12, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
I was wondering, can you change the #redwarnmessageid to ?/&redwarn=redwarnmessageid as it breaks another user script that attempts to find missing discussions in archives. (i.e. change #preferencessaved to ?redwarn=preferencessaved. You can do that by doing this:
(new URL(window.location)).searchParams.set("redwarnmessageid", themessageid);

Did you know you can create an edit notice for your talk page (without the need for editintro or anything like that)? You can do so by going to User_talk:Ed6767/Editnotice and paste your message there. Or you can move the editintro to your editnotice page. A a s i m 14:30, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

A relatively minor issue, but nevertheless:
Redwarn seems to insist on <code>== May 2020 ==</code>. On some talk pages, because it was added manually, this is sometimes also <code>==May 2020==</code> (which has no impact on what is displayed). This creates duplicate headers. It would be useful if this insignificant difference could be ignored. Thanks, RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 01:17, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

By far in the history of RedWarn so far, you adding pending changes accept/decline is the MOST USELESS feature. Have you ever seen the default pending changes reviewing interface? It already has accept and decline. Were the buttons not there? We don't need extra buttons; all it does is slow my computer down even more.
And not related to pending changes, RedWarn patrol still doesn't work like
above. I can't see the button. {{

No wonder why you "died" - you've been editing at 3am BST... The Multiple Action Tool is useful, but the "commit selected" button (which is the button that makes the edits) is too similar to the other buttons, so people could get confused.

Hi - I got a belated welcome today on my talk page from someone using RedWarn. The welcome is appreciated, but my initial glance at my watchlist had me jumping, the name REDWARN on my talk page made me think I'd made an error somewhere!
Maybe this is just me... but a "recent edits patrol and warning tool"/"counter-vandalism tool" maybe shouldn't be used for welcoming people? Sends the wrong vibe, in my opinion. Do let me know if I'm barking up the wrong tree.
The tool looks clever and interesting (from my brief read of the page, anyway!) Best wishes, Turini2 ( talk) 22:02, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
Hi Ed- Just alerting you that when I used the "quick rollback non-constructive edit" on this diff, RedWarn reported that it made the rollback, but the history does not show it. I was reverting a session with no net change, so it's not a real problem. I think I have run into this before with RedWarn, and just wanted to let you know. Eric talk 23:52, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
