 News and updates associated with user scripts from the past month (April 2020).

Hello everyone and welcome to the 15th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter:

Scripts Submit your new/improved script here
 * Cscr-featured.svg SD0001's find-archived-section, now a gadget, is this month's featured script


 * Gnome-colors-list-add.svg Enterprisey:
 * link-deleted-revs (On error pages for deleted revisions, show a link to the Special:Undelete page)
 * undelete-backlink (On Special:Undelete pages for diffs and revisions, link back to the main Undelete page with the list of revisions)
 * Epicgenius's sortcategories (sorts categories in an article alphabetically)
 * Awesome Aasim:
 * addmylinks (adds a customizable area for links and/or text to the sidebar)
 * editrequest (tool that allows for processing and answering edit requests)

 * Guywan's FileMoverHelper (move files and replace their uses in one action)


 * Gnome-colors-view-refresh.svg Enterprisey's reply-link has been updated to fail less, especially around template transclusions.
 * Twinkle released new features, including a new option to disable individual modules, support for stub template nomination at CfD, and integration with the PageTriage extension used to patrol new pages. (See full list of changes)

Open tasks
 * The  resource loader module was deprecated and is no longer needed; its functionality is now available by default. See mw:ResourceLoader/Migration guide (users) for more. Any dependency on it should be removed.

Pending requests
 * A script to reload feeds automatically
 * A script to mark templates in the TFD holding cell as ready for deletion
 * ...and many more, all available at User scripts/Requests



Miscellaneous
 * User scripts/Most imported scripts now also shows the number of active users for each script. It will now be updated by a bot periodically.
 * Twinkle's Morebits library added a new  class to replace the moment library. It can handle custom formatting and natural language for dates, as well as section header regexes. If you were using   or   with   objects, those have been deprecated and should be updated.
 * User:SD0001/find-archived-section was made a gadget. You can enable it from your gadget preferences, in the Browsing section.

Hope everyone stays safe. --DannyS712 (talk) 20:27, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

Articles for Creation: List of reviewers by subject notice
Hi, you are receiving this notice because you are listed as an active Articles for Creation reviewer.

Recently a list of reviewers by area of expertise was created. This notice is being sent out to alert you to the existence of that list, and to encourage you to add your name to it. If you or other reviewers come across articles in the queue where an acceptance/decline hinges on specialist knowledge, this list should serve to facilitate contact with a fellow reviewer.

To end on a positive note, the backlog has dropped below 1,500, so thanks for all of the hard work some of you have been putting into the AfC process!

Sent to all Articles for Creation reviewers as a one-time notice. To opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page. Regards, (talk) MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:35, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
