Potential problem
Very nice tool for looking at the number or words in an article. In playing with the tool I noticed that it does not pick up editable text with the following characteristics:

<:> indented information is excluded

<*> bulletized information is excluded

<#> numbered information is excluded

For individuals working on large articles these are commonly used techniques for presenting information. Looking at a few articles it seems to reduce actual count by 10-20 percent depending on the structure of the article. Sincerely -- Bullock  Talk 18:38, 24 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your comments. As explained on the script documentation page, there are a couple of reasons why the script acts in the above way. First, WP:SIZE explicitly excludes lists from "readable prose". Second, the script works by counting text within HTML &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; tags; the things you mention above are HTML &lt;dl&gt;, &lt;ul&gt;, and &lt;ol&gt; respectively. One reason why it is non-trivial to include these lists in the prose size calculation is that these tags are also used for the lists of references, citations, and external links, as well as in navboxes, templates, etc, and there is no easy way to exclude those in all articles. I'm very busy at the moment, so I don't have time to try to implement a not-so-easy way. Dr pda (talk) 22:46, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

JavaScript error with Internet Explorer 6
I have a problem with using this script with Internet Explorer 6. Whenever I try pressing the "Page size" script, a JavaScript error shows up, and only empty bullet points show up. Is this possible because the XMLHttpRequest object isn't created correctly? I recall that there are two different versions for different Internet Explorer versions. (And just if you are wondering why I'm using Internet Explorer 6: I am using a public library computer, so I have no choice about my browser. I use Firefox at home.) — MC10 ( T • C • GB •L)  00:02, 10 July 2010 (UTC)


 * You might want to consider carrying a copy of Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition.   — Jeff G. ツ 03:40, 16 July 2010 (UTC)


 * I am seeing this same error in Internet Explorer 8, although admittedly a corporate edition that uses an older version of Java. Was any kind of workaround ever discovered? Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition is not an option for me. Will talk 18:50, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Not working
I've been using this script for over a month, but it is no longer working. I tried deleting it and adding again, to no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks. Cindamuse (talk) 10:08, 26 July 2010 (UTC)


 * It still works for me. Maybe there's a clash with something else in your settings. Try switching off other settings and then adding them in again until you find the one that may be doing that.- Wolfkeeper 21:24, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Mention "characters"?
Just a small suggestion: perhaps you could change references to "b [bytes]" to "b (characters)" (and "Kb" to, I don't know, "Kb (1,024 characters)"?), or something along those lines? I was trying to use the tool to figure out if articles achieve the 1,500-character minimum required for DYK, and had to ask someone before discovering that one byte equals one character. — Cheers, Jack Lee  –talk– 12:13, 13 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Actually, a character can be more than one byte, for example the mdash — (U+2014) is three bytes when stored in UTF-8 . However, this is turn of the ASCII characters since UTF-8 was specifically designed to be a superset of it.  — Dispenser 14:11, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Request for readable prose (in lists) count
Per Article_size and Manual of Style (embedded lists), list text should be counted, if separately. Could you add a readable prose(in lists) count? --Lexein (talk) 18:43, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Article size refers to the fact that articles which are lists need not be broken up if they exceed 30–50 kB. It doesn't refer to calculation of readable prose, and as such should probably be moved to before the preceding section to avoid confusion. I agree that embedded lists are sometimes appropriate as described in Manual of Style (embedded lists), however see the first section on this talk page for why it is non-trivial to include such lists in the prose size calculation. Unfortunately I am still busy. Dr pda (talk) 22:37, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the prompt response. Food for thought, and grounds for further research. --Dave Emory. --Lexein (talk) 01:24, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Query
Hi Dr pda, I noticed something odd recently with your script. In an effort to reduce article size, I moved some blockquotes out of the text, and placed them instead in footnotes. The result was that the readable prose size increased, though I thought words in footnotes were not counted. (I realize that words in blockquotes aren't counted.) Can you advise? SlimVirgin talk| contribs 23:10, 6 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Another query: I noticed that something changed recently. It used to be the case that we could go back into old revisions and see your prosesize button in the toolbox, which meant we could compare versions in terms of word count. Now, for me at least, your tool is only visible in the latest revision. Is that something you can fix? SlimVirgin  TALK |  CONTRIBS 18:07, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
 * On a page like ? Still works for me. Amalthea  20:02, 28 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Looking at that old revision with Firefox, in the toolbox I see only What links here, Related changes, Upload files, Special pages, permanent link, and Cite this page. On new revisions I have two further links in the toolbox -- WP:RFPP (a protection tool), and Page size. I just tried it with Google chrome, and I can see the page size tool in old revisions there too, so I wonder if I need to update Firefox or something. Will do that and report back. SlimVirgin  TALK |  CONTRIBS 20:10, 28 January 2011 (UTC)


 * No, it didn't work. SlimVirgin  TALK |  CONTRIBS 01:28, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * This script works fine for me in Firefox 3 and 4 when viewing old revisions, as it always has (for me). Gary King  ( talk  ·  scripts )  03:41, 7 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Any idea what might have changed my end? It was visible in old revisions in Firefox until around four weeks ago, and is still visible to me with browsers other than Firefox. I'd like to try to fix it, because I do a lot of copy-editing to tighten texts, so I'm often comparing word counts between revisions, which now I can't do. The RfPP script that I have in my toolbox has also disappeared in old revisions. SlimVirgin  TALK |  CONTRIBS 15:07, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I assume that some script in your monobook causes an error, which in turn prevents all subsequent scripts from loading. You can have a look into your javascript error console to find out if there are any errors logged (Ctrl+Shift+J in Firefox). Amalthea2 (talk) 15:16, 7 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Amalthea, I'll try to do that and see what it says. SlimVirgin  TALK |  CONTRIBS 15:29, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * The problem is not with any of your scripts in User:SlimVirgin/monobook.js, since I just imported it to test, and received no JS errors. Your scripts also appeared for me in Firefox when viewing an old revision. The problem could either be with one of the gadgets you're using, although that's a bit unlikely, too, since those are usually held to a higher standard than most scripts, meaning they're less likely to throw errors—or maybe it's a Firefox extension you recently installed. You could try creating a new profile in Firefox, to see if the problem still exists there. Gary King  ( talk  ·  scripts )  18:25, 7 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Gary. I started trying to do that, but then got worried about losing my bookmarks, and never finding my way back, so I didn't complete it. :) I haven't changed anything recently in Firefox—haven't installed or uninstalled anything—so I can't think what might have caused it. I may just have to live with it. SlimVirgin  TALK |  CONTRIBS 19:09, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi, as you can see from here I've just fixed a couple of issues with the script, addressing the cases you mentioned (and have now made it count blockquotes). One other thing I discovered is that diffs now have  in the URL, and not. This must be a recent change. Since I explicitly checked for the type of action being done on the page before adding the "Page Size" link to the toolbox, this may explain why it wasn't showing up for you in some cases. If you bypass your cache this might allow you to see the page size link on old revisions. However, rereading what has been written above, it seems like you also experience this problem also on old revisions, rather than diffs between old revisions, and it is browser-specific, so maybe it's something different. Dr pda (talk) 08:44, 9 February 2011 (UTC)


 * I also recommend making these changes, so that the link doesn't appear on pages that have no content. Or, the script should at least not throw an error when clicking on it on pages with no content. Gary King  ( talk  ·  scripts )  18:54, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Not working for just one article
I use this tool all the time, and it seems to work great, but I just found one article, Prince Ferdinand Philippe, Duke of Orléans, for which most of the numbers come up as 0. Spock of Vulcan (talk) 20:38, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
 * ✅ . Amalthea  21:49, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

I ran into a similar problem while looking at Barak Obama. The tool only returns the File size, and 4 empty bullet locations below that. Cliff (talk) 18:40, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Roundoff
Is there an easy option to show raw numeric counts, rather than (or in addition to) "11 kB"? Values <10000 show four digits of precision, while values >10000 show two. Readable prose size precision does matter somewhat when calculating 5x article size changes for WP:Did you know. Example: Steven Matheson (revision 413440046), actual size 11497 (by my count). --Lexein (talk) 00:15, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes - install User talk:Dr_pda/prosesizebytes.js instead. Doh. --Lexein (talk) 00:37, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi Dr pda, Your tool is wonderful. I like it. I am preparing a series of studies about Wikipedia. I would like to know whether or not your tool can count the number of sentences only in PROSE section on a Wikipedia article as your word count function works. cooldenny (talk) 18:25, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

My page size tool is not working.
I have noticed since yesterday that when I want the page size to be shown, all that pops up are four bullet points with emptiness to their right while the respective statistics are supposed to be there instead. I don't know what the problem is there; I signed up for the copyediting drive, and I question how much I am capable of doing without that tool. What should happen for the tool to work again? Backtable Speak to meconcerning my deeds. 03:55, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Not sure why measuring prose size is required for copy-editing, but: Still works for me when I tried it on Jimmy Thorpe. Which page doesn't work for you? If all: what browser are you using (exact version please), and are you getting any messages in your javascript console? Amalthea  07:51, 17 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Script works fine for me. It hasn't been modified in a while and you haven't edited any .js pages in a while, either. Perhaps it's a gadget you recently enabled? Try using a different browser to see if it works there, then we can eliminate one variable. Gary King  ( talk  ·  scripts )  12:08, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * The browser that I am using is Internet Explorer 9, and all pages I've tried the page size gadget on have yielded no success. I tried using page size on another computer, this time with Internet Explorer 8, and I found the yellow higlights and the statistics that I was looking for. Also, I'm not sure or confident that I have another internet browser on my computer, which, for this situation at least, is somewhat undesirable. Also, when Amalthea states "Not sure why measuring prose size is required for copy-editing", that page size tool is used in the Guild of Copy Editors' Backlog elemination drives to determine the amount of words a page has; the words are important in those contests. Backtable Speak to meconcerning my deeds. 22:31, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * On second thought, when I said that I wasn't confident that I had another browser on my computer, that was before I remembered that I also have Google Chrome. I tested the tool on that browser, and it worked there. Thanks for the tip about alternate browsers. Backtable Speak to meconcerning my deeds. 01:55, 19 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Scripts typically work fine in most browsers but Internet Explorer, so when using scripts in IE, do so at your own risk. The one major difference is in how IE counts empty nodes compared to the other browsers, but there are also other differences as well. Gary King  ( talk  ·  scripts )  02:15, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Ouch. I wonder if the recent WP page mods, or the recent server upgrade, or switching to FF 7/7.01 broke it? --Lexein (talk) 17:18, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Yep, works. Gary King  ( talk  ·  scripts )  20:38, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

A similar edit needs to be made elsewhere in the script, for when you click on the link and Prose Size is already activated, then this will properly deactivate it by uncoloring the article. Gary King ( talk  ·  scripts )  07:11, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

No longer works for sections
In the Guild of Copy Editors backlog-reduction drives, sometimes only a section of a very long article needs copyediting and this script worked well in edit-preview mode until recently (I can still get page sizes for whole articles, but not for sections). I recently added a duplicate-links highlighting tool, but am now unable to delete the duplicate-links script from my .js page to see if that's the problem (which exists in both Firefox and Chrome, so I don't think it's a browser issue). Any help much appreciated!--Miniapolis (talk) 02:25, 13 November 2011 (UTC)


 * It still works in sections for me. Try removing other scripts and just keeping this one, then bypassing your cache. Gary King  ( talk  ·  scripts )  07:27, 13 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the advice, but I took the other three scripts out:

importScript('User:Ucucha/duplinks.js'); importScript('User:Smith609/toolbox.js'); importScript('User:Topbanana/RLRL_SR_Utility.js' ); if(wgAction == 'edit') { addOnloadHook(function minorEdit { document.getElementById('wpMinoredit').checked = true; } )}

and bypassed the cache and it still doesn't work. My JS error console has many entries for this script; is it possible my version got corrupted somehow?--Miniapolis (talk) 14:36, 13 November 2011 (UTC)


 * It might be conflicting with one of your other scripts. I have my own version of the script at User:Gary King/prose size.js if you want to try it out, although it's not that different from the original anymore so I doubt it would fix the problem. Gary King  ( talk  ·  scripts )  19:16, 13 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi, could this not be one of those bot type meta tools instead of a somewhat daunting DIY million bytes of code, and don't forget to bypass your systems..?

How to install on Chrome?
I am new to this whole area, so maybe I am doing something wrong... Trying to follow the instructions, I clicked on the link to "your skin script file" which says there is no such user page "Gronk Oz/vector.js" - I accepted the option to create it.

However, when I pasted the line of code  User:Dr_pda/prosesize.js  into the top of this new page, it would not allow me to save the changes. The top line (where I pasted the code) had a red cross to the left, and when I hovered the cursor over it, it displays the following error messages:
 * Expected a string and instead saw {.
 * Expected ':' and instead saw 'subst'.
 * Expected a JSON value.
 * Expected '}' and instead saw ':'.
 * Expected '(end)' and instead saw 'js'.

Has anybody else installed it on Chrome and can advise how to address this problem? --Gronk Oz (talk) 05:17, 23 July 2014 (UTC)


 * ✅I got the solution, thanks to Khamar. The correct code that needs to be pasted onto the script page is:

List-defined references not included?
Prosesize returned the following for 2014 Ferguson unrest. The article has a mix of list-defined references and in-body references. The references numbers seemed too small to include the LDRs, so I copied-and-pasted the LDRs into a .txt file and saved it on my computer. The resulting file was 81 kB in size. I conclude that Prosesize does not include LDRs. It would be great if it could be modified to do so; if that is not feasible, the documentation should be updated to clarify this.
