Scripts++ Newsletter – Issue 24
 Hello everyone, and welcome to the 24th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter, covering all our favorite new and updated user scripts since. Uh-huh, we're finally covering the good ones among the rest! Aren't you excited? Remember to include a link in double brackets to the script's .js page when you install the script, so that we can see who uses the script in WhatLinksHere! The ScriptInstaller gadget automatically does this. Aaron Liu (talk) 01:00, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Got anything good? Tell us about your new, improved, old, or messed-up script here!

Cscr-featured.svg Featured script

 * Making user scripts load faster by SD0001 is this month's featured script, which caches userscripts every day to eliminate the overhead caused by force-downloading the newest version of scripts every time you open a Wikipedia page. Despite being released in April 2021, our best script scouters have failed to locate it due to its omission from the US of L. For security reasons, the script only supports loading JavaScript pages.

Farm-Fresh error go.png Newly maintained scripts
After earthly attempts at improving the original have failed...
 * Aaron Liu has created What redirects here from Guarapiranga/WhatRedirectsHere; their fork includes support for every MediaWiki wiki, corrected link positions, an access key, and some rudimentary translation.
 * Ahecht has created a fork of SiBr4/TemplateSearch, which adds the "TP:" shortcut for "Template:" in the search box, and updated it to be compatible with Vector 2022.
 * AquilaFasciata/goToTopFast is a much faster fork of the classic goToTop script that also adds compatibility for Minerva and Vector 2022.
 * Mesidast/Tidy citations is a fork of Meteor sandwich yum/Tidy citations is a fork of Waldyrious/formatcitations. It configurably harmonizes whitespace and cleans up parameters in citation templates, descriptive edit summary included.



Ambox important.svg Improve a script
Unfortunately, this section has remained nearly identical. Help us out here!
 * Many of our favorite scripts such as Fred Gandt/userResourceManager, Guarapiranga/search-shortcuts and Bradv/Superlinks haven't been updated for Vector 2022. You could be the one to change that!
 * Elominius/media timer works, but its UI looks alien. Someone could improve it...
 * To a lesser extent, the same goes for PrimeHunter/Search sort. I wish someone would integrate the sorts into the sort menu instead of adding 11 portlet links.
 * We want...
 * ...a mark-as-read button and watchlist notices support for Aaron Liu/Watchlyst Greybar Unsin
 * ...a tool to automatically fix CAT:BROKENREFs, preferably a fork/addition to TheJJJunk/ARA
 * ...a fix/fork of DannyS712/SectionRemover to make it work

Ambox clock yellow.svg Requested scripts

 * A simple script to second or archive proposed deletions
 * A script to auto-expand V22 ToC sections like this demo
 * A WP:3O response tool that can automatically remove the relevant request from the 3O dashboard
 * A byte filter to be split from Nux/LongTableFilters
 * ...and many more, all available at User scripts/Requests

Gnome-colors-list-add.svg New scripts

 * DannyS712/AbuseFilterMessageLinks add links to the "warn" and "disallow" messages in edit filters.
 * Diegodlh/Web2Cit/script adds an option to use Web2Cit (which WP:ProveIt also uses) instead of Citoid to generate citations in the Visual Editor.
 * Dragoniez/SuppressEnterInForm stops you from accidentally submitting anything due to pressing enter while in the smaller box, and works on almost anything... except the InputBox element itself, used in subscription lists and the Signpost Crossword! Oh, the humanity!
 * CopyVio detector, Adiutor.pngǵu/Adiutor (pictured) provides a nice, integrated interface to do some twinkley tasks such as copyvio detection, CSD tagging, and viewing the most recent diff.
 * Eejit43's redirect-helper script demo.png43 has quite the aesthetically pleasing scripts, all made in TypeScript.
 * /afcrc-helper is a replacement for the unmaintained Enterprisey/AFCRHS and processes Redirects for Creation and Categories for Creation requests.
 * /ajax-undo stops the "undo" button from taking you to another page while providing a text box to provide a reason for the revert.
 * /redirect-helper (pictured) adds a much better interface for editing and redirects, including categorization, for which valid categories are dictated by /redirect-helper.json.
 * /rmtr-helper helps process technical requested moves without being able to actually move them.
 * User Info Popup screenshot 1.jpg2/UserInfoPopup (pictured) adds a flyout after the watchlist star on userspace pages that displays the common information you might use about a user.
 * Jeeputer/editCounter, under userspace, adds a portlet link to count your edits by namespace, put them in a table, and put that table in a hardcoded subpage, all in the background.
 * Hilst/Scripts/sectionLinks converts all section links to use the § sign, which are known to be preferred over the ugly # by 99% of the devils I've met.
 * Moonythedwarf/extra-unreliable highlights phrases commonly used in spammed and POV'd paragraphs.
 * FormattedEditRequest-in-work.pngDungKhongDinhDanh/FormattedEditRequest (pictured) generates a wikitext-formatted diff view of any changes you've made that you can copy and paste anywhere.
 * PrimeHunter/Category source.js adds portlet links to tell you where a category for an article comes from and supports those from template transclusions.
 * Qwerfjkl/massCFD creates mass WP:CfD nominations.
 * Rublov/refspace highlights footnote spacing errors in red.
 * Sophivorus's MiniEdit adds some nice, li'l buttons next to paragraphs to edit their wikitext with a minimal interface.

Edit-listings

 * Dragoniez/ToollinkTweaks adds more and customizable links next to users in page history, logs, watchlist, recent changes, etc.
 * Firefly/more-block-info optimizes the display of rangeblocks in contribution pages. Doesn't work outside the English locale of any wiki, unfortunately.
 * Ingenuity/AbuseFilterContribs adds the edit filters that an edit tripped (if any) to a user's contributions page.
 * Nardog/ExamineMore makes it so the paging at Special:AbuseFilter/examine actually works, pending a fix to.
 * NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh/AjaxLoader makes paging links (e.g. older 50, 500, newest) load without refreshing and makes you realize how slow your internet actually is.

Appearance-ricing

 * Ahecht/RedirectID adds the redirect target to all redirects. For all the WP:NAVPOPS haters. (Do these exist?)
 * Dragoniez/MarkBLockedGlobal: Remember the "strike blocked usernames" gadget? Now you can use a red, dotted line to highlight rangeblocks and global locks!
 * GhostInTheMachine/GraphicReplyLink replaces the [ ] link with 💬, which is some sort of rainy cloud I guess?
 * En.WP VPP Screen Shot 2024-01-13 with custom CSS.pngey/common (pictured) has some styles to overhaul your Vector 2022 experience. It reduces padding everywhere, and makes the top bar animation faster.
 * Aaron Liu/V22 is a fork that narrows the sidebars instead of upheaving them, reverts the January 2024 dropdown changes, and restores the old page-link color for links that don't go outside the current wiki.
 * Nardog: SmartDiff is a spiritual successor to Enterprisey/fancy-diffs. It makes the page title part of links in diffs clickable, along with template and parser function calls. Unnamed parameters can be configured per template to also be linked. All links are styled based on the normal CSS classes of rendered links.
 * Phlsph7/ClassicalTOC (Vector 2022) reinserts the inline table of contents to pages under Vector 2022.
 * For the paranoid: Rublov/anonymize replaces your username at the top of the screen with the generic "User page" text. Remember, it is your duty to persuade everyone that editing is an honor.
 * Sideswipe9th/Vector 2022 Floating Tools Menu moves the Page Tools menu to the left and makes it float along with the table of contents.
 * Sm8ps/SectionEditing makes pressing Tab toggle the visibility of the tiny [ ] links next to section headings.. Not a great name, eh?
 * The wub/tocExpandAll adds a button on top of the floating ToC to expand or collapse subheadings.

Permissions required!

 * Ahecht/potd-helper: A script to post the picture of the day. A powerful upgrade for your mop.
 * Selective Rollback dialog.pngniez
 * /AjaxBlock provides a dialog box for easy input of reasons while blocking users.
 * /Selective Rollback (pictured) provides a dialog box to customize rollback edit summaries and does them without reloading the page. Seriously, why doesn't MediaWiki already do this?
 * Theleekycauldron/DYK promoter automates (nearly) all the work needed to post a DYK hook.

QOL shortcuts

 * BrandonXLF/SVGEditor lets you edit any file that is an SVG, straight from the file page.
 * DanCherek/UAABotRemover adds a portlet link to enable a removal shortcut of faulty reports from Usernames for administrator attention.
 * DreamRimmer/BlankUserPage helps you destroy webhost-ers' hopes and dreams with a user-friendly dialog box.
 * ESanders (WMF)/commentlinks.js adds a "link" button right after the "reply" button while the WMF struggles to reach feature parity with Convenient Discussions.
 * Isaacl/copy-comment-link-to-clipboard does exactly what you'd think it does, but in Wikitext.
 * FenrisAureus/SimpleStatus adds a shortcut at the top to edit your /Status subpage while providing a pre-made template.
 * Fred Gandt/addCloneClearButtonAboveScributoConsole: What a mouthful! Yet all it does (no offense) is add another button on top of the Lua module debug console.
 * Guarapiranga/GlobalWatchlistLink adds a link to metawiki:Special:GlobalWatchlist next to the normal watchlist.
 * Nardog
 * PasteToCommons adds a paste handler to upload the pasted image to Wikimedia Commons.
 * Unpipe tries to detect violations of WP:NOPIPE and fix them as much as possible.
 * Ohconfucius/tometricunits automatically adds unit conversions of imperial units in brackets after their uses per MOS:UNITS.
 * Suntooooth
 * /flickrsearch adds a portlet link to search for uploadable flickr images about the subject.
 * /randomincategory adds a portlet link when on Category pages to go to a random page in the current category.
 * Vghfr/EasyTemplates adds a portlet link to automatically insert some of the most common inline fix templates.

Yes, we're just doing 'em as we go now. Thanks for reading through this looong issue, if you did! I'm sure this'll send a record for the longest issue ev-ah. You may need to wait even longer for the last issue, as our reserve of old-y and goodie scripts have ran out... We encourage you to try and do some of the requests or improvement tasks. See you in Summer, hopefully!

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024
Hello ,

Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to, who led with over 2,300 points.

Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.

It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!

2023 Awards won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.

Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.

Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.

Reminders:
 * You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
 * Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
 * To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.
