User talk:Lourdes/Backlinks

Adapted for all Wikipedias
Hi Lourdes,

In 2017 you created the tool Backlinks and I have been an avid user for some years. Mostly active at Dutch Wikipedia I had to change the url from .en. to .nl. which is'nt a chore of course, but today I have created an internationalized version. It's very easy actually, see nl:user:Bertux/Backlinks.js if you wish:
 * is replaced with

I have tested it at several wikis including some with non-western scripts like zhwiki, arwiki and yiwiki and it works in all of them. Of course users should call the tool from m:Special:MyPage/global.js to make this work.

I also encountered another stumbling block: the tool doesn't show up in the Vector 2022 skin so I have set Vector 2010 as my global default; I don't know if there is a better cure for this absenteeism  →bertux 08:41, 12 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Should you decide to change your tool accordingly please ping me; there is no sense in identical parallel versions. Thanks!  →bertux 08:44, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I got a tip to simplyfy the code and make it work at, and  too: just strip the site url (!), it is added implicitly.

So line 11 should simply read:
