You may be looking for MediaWiki:Edittools.

Notice: Some of these tools may be obsolete or need to be updated. Also, they are not all guaranteed to work with your current configuration or preference settings.

External editors

A wikipedia-enhanced text editor can make editing much easier. There are extensions for several text editors. They provide many useful functions, e.g.:

  • Syntax highlighting;
  • Easy navigation between the article's sections. This makes editing big articles much easier, especially if the overall outline structure of an article needs to be improved. Especially take a look at Eclipse and Emacs;
  • Direct down- and uploading of articles without using the web browser.

For details, see Wikipedia:Text editor support.

Similar tools:

Firefox extension (Firefox version 1.5 only) which adds the Wikipedia formatting commands to context menu and toolbar.

MediaWiki Edit Toolbar


MediaWiki toolbar includes different buttons that can help you in editing. This is the French version, with buttons for citations.

WikiEditPuffer

WikiEditPuffer: edit online – save locally
WikiEditPuffer is an add-on for Mozilla-Firefox making the editing of contributions safer by maintaining local copies of editors content automatically.

  • Store your contribution: every n seconds, and/or every m keystrokes
  • Forget about it, when everything works perfectly
  • Use it, when you need it (transmission error, blue screen, server fault)
  • Keep track of all your edits, locally and at your own

User:Zocky/Search Box, a simple search/replace box. Supports regular expressions.

secEdit

User:Supadawg/secedit.js, allows editing of article sections inline (without opening a separate page) – also supports previewing and showing changes inline.

xul4wikipedia

User:Plindenbaum/xul4wikipedia generates on the fly a Firefox addon used to insert your custom texts (templates...) in wikipedia.

MW (ubiquity script)

MW is a Firefox Ubiquity script. It uses the mediawiki API to suggest and insert an internal link.

Semi-auto edit bots

AutoWikiBrowser

AutoWikiBrowser – Makes repetitive, tedious edits such as spell checkings or category moves faster and easier.

Request for program access should be made at Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage
Make task requests at Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks
Typo fixing request should be made at Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Typos
Bugs should be reported at Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Bugs
Feature Requests: Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Feature_requests

mwpush

Description mwpush.pl is a Perl script which takes a Wikified text file or input and submits it to a target MediaWiki page.

Pywikipediabot

Useful for creating bots, or for interactive repair of interwiki links.

Humanbot (currently not running)

Description

A semi-automatic bot that automatically corrects mistakes in Wikipedia pages. The bot requires Mozilla Firefox, Greasemonkey 0.5-beta+, and a special script. This only works with the (default) Monobook theme. See the bot's page for more information.

Instructions (incomplete)

  • If you don't have Mozilla Firefox, see the Firefox page on the Mozilla website.
  • If you don't have the Greasemonkey extension, see the Greasemonkey page on the Mozilla Update website. Remember to restart your browser after installing it.
  1. Navigate to the script page.
  2. On the menu bar, go to Tools >> Install User Script.
  3. Click the 'Ok' button in the "Install User Script" window to add it to Greasemonkey.
  4. On Wikipedia, a new menu will appear on the sidebar, called "auto-edit" with the options 'on', 'off', and 'home'. Click 'on' to activate the bot.
    • Note: Do not activate the bot with multiple tabs open!
    • Note: The rest of the instructions are missing. If you can add to this, please do so.

Usage

The bot will send you to the correct page, make the changes, and press the preview button. You just need to check that the changes are reasonable, and the edit will be made under your own username.

WagTools

WagTools – a Firefox extension containing a set of tools to speed up repetitive processes, similar to AutoWikiBrowser. (Currently under development – there's only two tools available at the time of writing, a project tagging tool and a typo fixer, but the intention is to add more later).

DotNetWikiBot

DotNetWikiBot has an option to review and change each edit in Microsoft Word before saving it to live wiki. DotNetWikiBot is a client API on .NET, intended for building bots for MediaWiki sites.

Information display

Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation popups gives a popup box containing the first paragraph of an article when hovering over a link; it also allows quick access to common editing operations. If the wiki provides the NavPop gadget, it can be enabled in user preferences under the gadgets tab. Otherwise, installed by editing the user's [[User:Name/monobook.js]] file.

Templates

User:Zondor/Toolboxes provide a list of templates as tools for one to put in pages such as their user page.

Alternative preview

  • Pilaf's Live Preview is a script that allows very fast preview in the browser window during article editing, without loading a new page, using a JavaScript parser. It does not support templates and has some other limitations. Installed by editing your Special:Mypage/monobook.js file. It is also used by the wikEd editor tool.
  • User:Sverdrup/Wikipreview.html uses Pilaf's great Live Preview to make a downloadable stand-alone previewer for offline editing. (Download this link to save the file: wikipreview.html).
  • Alex Smotrov's QPreview adds an edit toolbar button that uses XMLHttpRequest to generate page preview without reloading the whole page. QPreview functionality has also been added to the wikEd editor tool.

wpvfdhide

wpvfdhide hides VfD discussions which are already closed on demand. This is useful both for finding unclosed entries in the logs and for finding things which weren't speedied in the current VfD day pages. The latest link to it is at User:R3m0t and it requires Firefox and Greasemonkey. r3m0t talk July 3, 2005 13:56 (UTC)

WikiCheck watchlist tool

WikiCheck is a small tool to make checking your watchlist easier. Docked to the left screen edge it shows a list of changes that occurred since the last time the list was checked. Clicking on a change will open the corresponding diff in a new browser window. Recently rewritten.

vfd_NavBar

vfd_NavBar is a modified version of the experimental navigation bars. This will hide closed discussions in the AFD & AFC pages, but not in the AFD sub pages (where there's only 1 discussion) and allows you to toggle them individually. There's no other requirements, just {{subst:User:Sanbeg/vfd_NavBar.js}} into your monobook.js -Steve Sanbeg 21:12, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiDiff

Firefox only extension for tracking and rendering diffs of Wikipedia articles. Essentially like taking a highlighter and marking what is new since your last visit. Allows you to watch pages you aren't specifically watching. Requires the Java Runtime. --Dmg46664 (talk) 07:58, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wikisyntax conversion utilities

From tables

From Microsoft Word

  • User:Cacycle/wikEd editor extension functionality, see above
  • Extension:Word2MediaWikiPlus: Converts most text, tables and pictures into wiki format.
  • Word2MediaWiki
  • Adding code to Microsoft visual basic editor
    Add the below source code (currently hidden in a collapsed table) to the visual basic editor in Word.

    To open the visual basic editor: (tools->macro->visual basic editor)

    Then (insert >> module)

    Copy and paste the below code.

    Save the code (File >>Save normal)

    Then close the visual basic editor.

    Converting the Word formatted text is simply done by running your new 'installed' macro (tools->macro->macros).

    See the notes[1] for more formatting options.

Regex: change heading levels

The following may seem trivial for Unix-experienced people, but a collection of ready to use regular expressions can help people who don't know anything or much about regular expressions. For these people: You can use regular expressions in many editors to perform complex editing tasks.

This will give the headings more (or less) equal signs ("="). I can only provide a version which is verified to work in Eclipse, but it will work in many text editors which feature Unix-style regular expressions.

Please change the expressions only if you are very, very sure that it will work correctly, say you have tested that it works.

Verified in Eclipse

Search-string:
^=(=*?)([^=]+?)(=*?)=\s*$
For more equal signs replace with:
==$1$2$3==
For less equal signs replace with:
$1$2$3
To balance right equals signs to left:
=$1$2$1=

Hints for text editors not mentioned

In other editors the replace strings will have to be different:

For more equal signs replace with: 

==\1\2\3==

For less equal signs replace with: 

\1\2\3

Footnote renumbering tool

Strikeout

The following simply adds a strikeout button to your editing tools: 

function addStrikeoutButton() {

    editingTools = document.getElementById('toolbar');

    if (editingTools != null)  {

        StrikeTextButton = "  <a href=\"javascript:insertTags('<s>','</s>','Insert text here');\"><img 
src=\"http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c9/Button_strike.png\" alt=\"Strike\" title=\"Strike-through text\"></a>";
 
        editingTools.innerHTML = editingTools.innerHTML + StrikeTextButton;
    }
}

window.onload = addStrikeoutButton;

Units of measure formatting and conversion tool and date formatting tool

User:MJCdetroit/monobook.js is a monobook tool that allows many common units to be correctly formatted (e.g. km² and not sq km) and converted between metric and imperial/U.S. customary systems with one click on a 'units' tab in edit mode.

Dates can be delinked and common errors associated with can be corrected with one click on a 'dates' tab in edit mode.

Units and dates can be combined by clicking the 'combined' tab in the edit mode.

To avoid false positives, editors can/should review the changes offered and accept or reject the changes offered and/or do more editing before pressing 'Save'. Simply add importScript("User:MJCdetroit/monobook.js"); to your own monobook. Follow the instructions in your monobook to clear the cache (i.e. press Ctrl-Shift-R in Firefox, or Ctrl-F5 in IE) before it will work. —MJCdetroit (yak) 20:32, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Welcome

// A small piece of JS writen by [[User:MatthewFenton]], This is my first piece of JS.
function welcome() {
  if (document.title.indexOf('Editing User talk:') == 0) {
    document.editform.wpTextbox1.value = document.editform.wpTextbox1.value + '==' + 'Welcome' + '==\n' + '{{subst:User:' + 'MatthewFenton/Welcome}}\n~~' + '~~';
    document.editform.wpSummary.value = 'Welcome a user to Wikipedia using JS WW';
  }
}
function welcome_tab() {
  add_link('javascript:welcome()', 'Welcome');
}

if (document.title.indexOf('Editing User talk:') == 0) {
  addOnloadHook(welcome_tab);
}

The code adds a tab when you are on user talk pages, you can then click it to add a welcome template and then save. A little time saver for me i thought I would share. Matthew Fenton (contribs) 16:25, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Auto-replace for romanized Sanskrit text input

User:Visarga/monobook.js is a script that uses an internal Sanskrit dictionary to automatically replace romanized words typed without diacritics with their proper form. Typing Sakti will get you Śakti. A second function of this script is to allow the manual input of diacritics like the upper line, below dot or cedilla. Type : a-- and get ā. The dictionary might contain mistakes. The script was created for personal use so it has not been evaluated yet. Visarga (talk) 09:15, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notes

  1. ^ Note: You may want to alter this Microsoft Word visual basic editor code so that Word H1 tags become Wiki H2 tags, H2->H3, and so on. H1 is widely considered the title of a web page, whereas H1 is widely considered just the top-level heading in Word.

    Note: this macro also provides a workaround converting linebreaks from word to paragraphs in wiki – line breaks in word are ignored in wiki so everything runs together in one paragraph in the older version of this code. Also, the code no longer makes any changes to the source document. Changes are made on a document in memory and put on the clipboard for pasting into the wiki text area.
