Luxo's Global edit tool
Could the link to Luxo's Global edit tool please be temporarily removed (or replaced with the quentinv57-tools version linked to on MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer-anon), at least until Luxo can perform the necessary eqiad migration steps and the link works again? Thanks, Storkk (talk) 18:17, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Pictogram voting question.svg Question: Have you attempted to contact to get them to migrate and fix it already?  That seems like it would be a logical first step to me. — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (t • e • c) 00:38, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

Edit Count Link
Please update the edit counter to point to //tools.wmflabs.org/supercount/index.php?user= &project=en.wikipedia Please also update it on the other contribution footers too.— cyberpower Chat Offline 21:51, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes check.svg Done. Done for MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer. I deleted MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer/en-gb, MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer/nl, and MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer/nl-informal, as there didn't seem to be any reason to prefer those versions over MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer. I think that's all the links that needed changing? — Mr. Stradivarius  ♪ talk ♪ 23:38, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Did you do the anon ones too?— cyberpower Chat Offline 00:50, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
 * MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer-anon doesn't have an edit count link!
 * Unless you meant: delete the 3 anon variants MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer-anon/nl and MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer-anon/nl-informal and MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer-anon/en-gb (which seems like a good idea, ping :).  –Quiddity (talk) 08:54, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Actually, deleting the en-gb version was a mistake, and I have undeleted it. It turns out that if your language is set to en-GB then it doesn't fall back to the en version if the en-gb version isn't available. I can't see any reason to have the nl versions on the English Wikipedia, though, unless we are interested in personalising messages for every single MediaWiki language. — Mr. Stradivarius  ♪ talk ♪ 09:01, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

hlist
Please convert this template to hlist. Converting to hlist results to more cleaner code on the template and makes easier for other wiki to use enwiki templates as other wikis use different kind of bullet. I did this conversion on my sandbox. Thank you –ebraminiotalk 09:01, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

I suggest changing tools for created articles and editcount to XTools
 * for editcount
 * for created articles

There are much more statistics.

Could a sysop please revert the last edits to the template…
… because the xtools are back! \o/

Date format
I appreciate that someone updated this template to indicate that the tools were down (which, per the previous section, can be removed now that the tools are up). In the future, could you please not use a MOS:BADDATEFORMAT in the template? Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 15:13, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

The template call should pass the parameter as  in case the user name contains an equals sign. See Help_desk. [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix=Sp-contributions-footer%2F&namespace=8 Three language variants] will need the same fix. -- John of Reading (talk) 18:39, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

Replace [//tools.wmflabs.org/xtools-ec/?user=&project=en.wikipedia.org Edit count] with [//tools.wmflabs.org/supercount/index.php?user=&project=en.wikipedia.org Edit count].

Change to supercount: Xtools down again, funny no one brought it up yet.

Bug
The "articles created" link used to work with one click as recently as about a week ago, would take me to the xtools output without any form filling. Now it takes me to a page where I have to fill in a username, then click "submit" before getting the user's articles created. It would be nice if this worked in one click like it used to. It disrupts my train of thought to have to go back, copy the username, go forward, paste it, then click submit. ☆ Bri (talk) 00:29, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Repro steps: click Special:Contributions/Bri then click "Articles created". Expected result: list of articles created. Actual result: blank Xtools form.

The "SUL Info" tool by Quentinv57 doesn't work
It's the tool linked from "SUL" in the footer. See Phabricator: T198320: The SUL Info tool doesn't work. --Pipetricker (talk) 17:59, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

This should be the right approach. PATH encoding for URL paths, QUERY encoding for URL queries components. Wiki encoding (where an underscore is required to encode a space in a username, is rare and weird. —Th e DJ (talk • contribs) 11:49, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

Proposal for an updated icon aligning to Wikimedia Design Style Guide
I'd like to propose using an updated icon in alignment to Wikimedia Design Style Guide and the. The current icon is not only visually out of place, it features – with the cursive “i” a latin script only localized element, which makes it harder to reuse the template in non-latin script wikis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Volker E.
