User:Jeff G./Section link for section 0 for all users

Section link for section 0 for all users
Please enable this feature. Having such a link would be fairer (than the current situation of not having such a link) to registered users who can't or don't use the Gadgets, as well as to users of IP Addresses.

"The section edit link can be added to MediaWiki: namespace pretty straightforwardly by an admin if any given wiki wants it." [Comment #13 From Simetrical 2006-06-09 01:28:50 UTC]

"If you (or others) believe an edit link for section 0 would generally be useful, it seems more useful to turn it on for all users on all pages (probably suggested through bugzilla or WP:VPT), rather than to rely on a page-by-page basis. – Luna Santin  (talk) 13:11, 21 January 2008 (UTC)"

General comments

 * A section 0 edit link can be enabled on a per-account basis by checking the " Add an [edit] link for the introduction section of a page" box on the Gadgets tab at Special:Preferences Nakon  17:16, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I know that, but that Gadget is no help "to registered users who can't or don't use the Gadgets, as well as to users of IP Addresses" (the majority of the userbase).   — Jeff G. (talk&#124;contribs) 20:55, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


 * But are they the majority of editors? Prodego  talk  01:59, 12 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I think they are. A developer could compare the sum of registered users with edits and IP Addresses with edits with the quantity of checkmarks to that box; I suspect the ratio would be rather large.    — Jeff G. (talk&#124;contribs) 17:58, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Neutral

 * 1) I would like to comment that Simetrical's comment #13 appears to be mistaken, unless he's talking about doing something in Mediawiki:Common.js (which won't work with javascript disabled). —Random832 06:21, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
