Happy to support the valid points you made. By the way, I've proposed some additional language citing facts that are not supportive of the IPCC's projections on climate change. You may be interested, and I would encourage you to check them out in the talk page. Kolg8 (talk) 14:12, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, Kolg8. Have you had a chance to look into this list? Cheers.
I noticed that you are a heavy contributor to all sorts of lists of data points on Wikipedia. I am interested in such lists as well, but many of them are very difficult to maintain and update. In theory, the ones that come from a single source should be easy to update, but someone needs to write a script to do this. Still, it is hard to believe that every update currently made (e.g. annual update) is made by hand. Are you aware of any existing tools for updating such lists, even if they only deal with a specific list?
Hi Ynhockey, what I've been trying to do is link the lists via transclusion. Look for instance at the List of South American countries by population and how it's linked to the List of countries by population. Not only were the population figures there static (and therefore outdated), but all calculations were pasted as number. I have since then replaced them with formulas linked to the source column. This doesn't always work, as the wiki engine is not designed for spreadsheets, so it takes some playing around with the syntax for it to work.
Alternatively, there's a script that queries tables from Wikidata, but I find that's too automated, as much of the work in keeping the data up to date requires pulling it out from external sources not prepared for scraping (and many times in foreign languages). Again, a good example of that is the List of countries by population, which is maintained by vigilant wikipedians. But even there the percentage calculations were made by entering the population numbers twice, one for the pop column and one for the percent column, which is obviouly prone to error, instead of transcluding from one to the other, so I changed that.

I realized on a re-read that I'd been a bit testy in my wording toward you, on the content alignment threads. Sorry about that. I think it's a seasonal affect thing that's put me in a poor mood. Today is American Thanksgiving, and Christmas is around the corner. Both of them being very family-oriented holidays, they make me unhappy because few of my family members are still living and those that are live half a continent away. At least I'm catching myself at projecting my mood around. Need to compartmentalize better again! — SMcCandlish☏¢ 😼 19:34, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for intervening, RoySmith. This is the result of a clear effort from a mob of Wiki activists at the service of the US medical establishment to impose their own consensus over the whole English-speaking world, of which WP.en should be a reflection of.

Hello Guarapiranga. I noticed your attempt to fix a ping. Unfortunately, that method does not work. The notifications system only informs a user when you link their username in the same saved edit as you successfully sign your post. A ping cannot be fixed in a later edit by adding your signature or fixing a botched username. Instead, reference the user by adding [[User:Example]] to an edit summary, or use one of the other methods at Help:Fixing failed pings. ―Qwerfjkl | 𝕋𝔸𝕃𝕂 (please use {{reply to|Qwerfjkl}} on reply) 11:23, 31 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Twice in the last few days, you have made multiple edits to live templates that are transcluded in many pages, introducing breaking changes. I recently reverted erroneous edits at {{Flaglist}}, which happened after you broke {{UN population}}. For any but the simplest of edits, please make your edits to the template's sandbox, then use the template's testcases page to ensure that you have not broken anything, then explain your changes on the template's talk page. Feel free to ping me from a template talk page if you would like feedback on your proposed edits to a template sandbox. If there are no objections to your proposed changes, it is then appropriate to copy the sandbox code to the live template. Thanks. – Jonesey95 (talk) 03:14, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
To add to this, are you aware of the "Preview page with this template" feature at the bottom of the edit form? I've wondered if you are given the pace at which you edit modules. Sorry if you already know this. Nardog (talk) 04:04, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have observed the new editing you recently do in the current version of the article and I appreciate your efforts. However, it makes me extremely confused about how you made the ranking as it seems there is no scenario by restructing the tabulation which shows some statistical advanced countries being put behind while some others have lower figures are forwarded. May I ask your criteria on how you determined the ranking before the renewal? If you have no appropriate elaboration then I regret I would request to reverse to the old one. 123.195.130.73 (talk) 04:26, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The ranking is not fixed. Rather, the 1st column has {{static row numbers}}, and you can rank the rows by whichever column you choose.
The initial order, if I'm not mistaken, is the average of the GDP estimates (nothing to do with how advanced the countries are).
Thank you for respondng. I have seen the enhancement to the new tabulations you have made today and it's a great work, same structure can be applied to other similar lists like GDP (PPP) in your convenience, I would appreciate that.123.195.130.73 ([[Usersage delivered to you with love by Yapperbot :) | Isthis wrong?

Hi, regarding WP:Village pump (technical)/Archive 191#Invoking scripts from the url.... (Sorry I didn't get to this until it was archived.) What you may have been thinking of is the following: you can go to a page, then enter something like javascript:importScript('User:UserName/scriptName.js'); in the address bar to invoke the script.
This method works in Chrome and Edge. For Internet Explorer, you'd have to tack functionName(); onto the end. A different method is required for Firefox: you'd have to open the JavaScript Console (Ctrl-Shift-K in Windows) and enter importScript('User:UserName/scriptName.js');.

Hey! I see you've been adding some usage examples to some templates (12). Please keep in mind that, when using tbullet, you must use {{BASEPAGENAME}}, not {{PAGENAME}}. This is because {{PAGENAME}} includes the entire title. This means the page attempts to transclude the /doc, and this leads to template recursion (See Category:Pages with template loops). Meanwhile, {{BASEPAGENAME}} is just the regular template page. Thanks! Aidan9382(talk)04:44, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Why do your recent edit summaries contain the page titles as section links? They're not helpful as they lead nowhere. Nardog (talk) 13:53, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, it's wikiplus; I configured it wrong. I based it on its instructions, which picks up wgPageName instead of the section name. What's the mw.config variable for section name? I couldn't find it here or on meta.— Guarapiranga☎03:44, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A-ha, so that's what it's for! I noticed it on Enterprisey's and SD001's versions, but thought they were commented out testing stuff.
Any particular reason why you chose to ask rather than make the change yourself? Is it a rule or protocol not to edit user scripts (even if they intervene with the functioning of WP more widely)? — Guarapiranga☎20:28, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, that worked! Could you do the same with User:Guarapiranga/vector.css or just fix the double braces around the font-size:85%? It is currently showing in Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Font-size:85%. Only you or interface editors are allowed to edit your .css and .js pages. Someone could do a lot of damage to your WP experience by maliciously editing those pages, which is why there are high-level edit restrictions to those pages. In the past, as an administrator, I was allowed, but not anymore. It's probably for the best since not all administrators understand css and javascript. Thanks again!

Hi Guarapiranga, I'm not sure what you were trying to achieve with this edit to Results of the 2022 Australian federal election (Senate) - labeling a section with tags <section begin= /><section end= /> enables you to transclude the labeled section, BUT using the same heading more than once on a page causes problems - it only works for the first section. It seems like what you want to achieve is to transclude only the main parties. A better way to achieve this is to use <noinclude></noinclude> tags to prevent transcluding particular rows. The way it's been done for previous elections is to only include parties that won or lost seats. You can also use <includeonly></includeonly> tags to add an additional row at the end for others - this will only show up on the transclusion. Also {{Excerpt}} is generally easier to use than transcluding. I have edited Results of the 2019 Australian federal election (House of Representatives), Results of the 2019 Australian federal election (Senate) and 2019 Australian federal election to do what I think you're trying to achieve. --Find bruce (talk) 00:56, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what you were trying to achieve with this edit That.
using the same heading more than once on a page causes problems Not according to H:LST.
Just saw your table at Templates for discussion - labeled section tags do work to exclude text from transclusion, but the reason for noinclude tags is more obvious to other editors and avoids any issues with multiple sections with the same name. Find bruce (talk) 01:11, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Guaraparanga. I noticed that you reversed my rather small edit on Brit Milah. It was kind of a test edit, as I find that this article violates, in many ways, the WP policy on NPOV. As a relatively inexperienced WP editor, I thought that I would reach out to you and see what your POV and intentions are with respect to the article. If you look at the Brit Milah Talk page, you will see a couple of complaints about the obvious problems with this article. It has obviously been edited by people who do not like circumcision. If you look at the article on Circumcision, an admittedly controversial topic, you will notice that the article is quite balanced, including circumcision within the Jewish population. "Brit Milah" is about the Jewish ceremony and practice. It was a minor point within the biased article, but still highly misleading for someone to say that a "growing number" of Jews have chosen not to circumcise their sons. If it is growing from .01% to .03%, then that is growing, but it is still insignificant. In your reversal, you indicated that you would add a RS. However, there are already 6 sources there. Are you saying that these sources are not reliable? The Brit Milah article is full of sources, but that does not necessarily make them reliable. Soon, I plan to enter on the Talk page my intention to considerably edit the article to give it NPOV. Speaking of sources, the article on Brit Milah in the Jewish Virtual Library would seem like a great reference. I see that the JVL article is linked at the bottom of the article, but it is not listed as a numbered source in the WP article. So, at this point, I am looking for feedback and guidance from you. Regards, Howardlhoffman Howardlhoffman (talk) 00:25, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I noticed that you reversed my rather small edit on Brit Milah. All part of the WP:CYCLE.
It was kind of a test edit, as I find that this article violates, in many ways, the WP policy on NPOV. In what ways?
As a relatively inexperienced WP editor, I thought that I would reach out to you and see what your POV and intentions are with respect to the article. What I can tell you is that WP:NPOV doesn't mean what most new editors think it means. The neutrality it speaks of is that of the editors in relation to the sources, not of the sources themselves (WP:YESPOV):
Achieving what the Wikipedia community understands as neutrality means carefully and critically analyzing a variety of reliable sources and then attempting to convey to the reader the information contained in them fairly, proportionately, and as far as possible without editorial bias.
Our own POV, as editors, therefore ought to be irrelevant; that's what WP:NPOV means.
It was a minor point within the biased article, but still highly misleading for someone to say that a "growing number" of Jews have chosen not to circumcise their sons. If it is growing from .01% to .03%, then that is growing, but it is still insignificant. WP doesn't draw conclusions; that's WP:OR. If the RS say it's "growing", then WP says it's growing (whether significant or not).
In your reversal, you indicated that you would add a RS. However, there are already 6 sources there. Are you saying that these sources are not reliable? One of them wasn't—and advocacy website—so I removed it, and added others.
The Brit Milah article is full of sources, but that does not necessarily make them reliable. Indeed it doesn't; consensus at WP:RSP does. The ones that aren't reliable ought to be removed per WP:RS (as I've just done).
Speaking of sources, the article on Brit Milah in the Jewish Virtual Library would seem like a great reference. And right there is an example of a source deemed not reliable here at WP.
Hi Guarapiranga. Thank you for the detailed response to my comments above. You have been most helpful. I have spent quite a bit of time reviewing the WP references in your response.
To answer your question: It was a test to see what would happen when I made a small edit to the article. I have in mind doing a lot of edits to the Brit Milah article, but I wanted to see what kind of response I would get from other editors. And, I was hoping for help, so thank you again.
With respect to your comment: "WP doesn't draw conclusions", I have found 3 important WP policies that are relevant to the Brit Milah article and my interest in editing it: WP:Cherrypicking, WP:Fringe, and WP:Undue. As of this moment, the article has lots of good information, but it is full of Cherrypicking, relies on Fringe theories, and gives Undue weight to certain POV's. All of this is in violation of NPOV. The article is especially in violation in the Lead Section. So, I started checking the sources. Great example: the cited article "Increasingly, a Ritual Is Bypassed" from the NYT. The NYT article states: ". . . circumcision remains nearly universal among American Jews, with 98 percent of Jewish men having been circumcised". This is precisely why I made my small initial edit. The NYT article goes on to say "But within the Bay Area, there is a debate ...". Well, I have lived in the [SF] Bay Area for most of the past 52 years, and I am familiar with this fringe line of thinking (against circumcision within the Jewish community). I know hundreds of Jewish males, including converts, in the Bay Area and I know of exactly 2 that are not circumcised. Admittedly, there might be others, as I do not do inspections :>) And, as the NYT article states is most often the case, the 2 are of a single mixed marriage (father not Jewish).
So, here is how I plan on proceeding and I would appreciate your feedback on this: I plan on announcing my intentions on the Brit Milah talk page so that everyone can see why I am editing the way I am. I hope that you and other editors can help me in improving this article. I will do the editing in pieces, rather than doing it all at once, and there will be an entry on the talk page each time instead of long Edit Summaries.
Question: When an editor cites a book as a source, how does one go about seeing if it is a legitimate source for the small amount of text added? Anyone can cite a book as a reference and Cherrypick to their heart's content. Life is too short to read every book on the subject listed as a reference in this article. Howardlhoffman (talk) 23:28, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed it is, Howardlhoffman. Hopefully, one of the 122,190 of us, (active) editors, will check each book. Typically, what happens to me is that when I'm looking into a topic, I start with WP of course, and follow it to the sources. If I find the sources don't support its text, I change it. I never really took a whole article to have it completely checked and revamped (other than perhaps lists and very small ones).
Now, specifically regarding your edit that I reverted, you say the vast majority of male Jews are circumcised, and I see no source stating the opposite. Saying that the proportion of uncircumcised Jews is growing doesn't contradict that. — Guarapiranga☎22:42, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hey. Your recent edits on circumcision keep breaking the notes and citation parts of the article. They're both now presently filled with "error" messages; many aren't displaying at all.
You also reverted my edits that corrected the reference in that section (Assaf is not the lead author—Bolnick is—and that's not even his last name—it's Yosha!).
I'm not going to revert your reversion, or else we'll be truly and fully in an edit war, so I please ask you to revert it yourself and let me know what "error" messages you saw.
The citations show "cite error" (citation error). I think it's because the references in the circumcision article are named differently than those in the prevalence of circumcision. The note in the subsection also becomes broken: probably for different reasons. I'm not presently knowledgeable about Wikicode to fix it. However, if you can figure it out, I support your edits. I don't have a problem with that section of prevalence of circumcision being linked with the circumcision article.
corrected the reference in that section My apologies. I didn't notice that part got added back in the reversion. Feel free to correct it.
Don't consider reverting it (after fixing) an edit war. I don't have an objection with it. The original edit just broke the formatting. KlayCax (talk) 19:51, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Got anything good? Tell us about your new, improved, old, or messed-up script here!
User:Alexander Davronov/HistoryHelper has now become stable with some bugfixes and features such as automatically highlighting potentially uncivil edit summaries and automatically pinging all the users selected.
To a lesser extent, the same goes for User:PrimeHunter/Search sort.js. I wish someone would integrate the sorts into the sort menu instead of adding 11 portlet links.
Aaron Liu: Watchlyst Greybar Unsin is a rewrite of Ais's Watchlist Notifier with modern APIs and several new features such as not displaying watchlist items marked as seen (hence the name), not bolding diffs of unseen watchlist elements which doesn’t work properly anyways, displaying the rendered edit summary, proper display of log and creation actions and more links.
Alexis Jazz: Factotum is a spiritual successor to reply-link with a host of extra features like section adding, link rewriting, regular expressions and more.
User:Aveaoz/AutoMobileRedirect: This script will automatically redirect MobileFrontend (en.m.wikipedia) to normal Wikipedia. Unlike existing scripts, this one will actually check if your browser is mobile or not through its secret agent string, so you can stay logged in on mobile! Hooray screen estate!
Deputy is a first-of-its-kind copyright cleanup toolkit. It overrides the interface for Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations for easy case processing. It also includes the functionality of the following (also new) scripts:
User:Elominius/gadget/diff arrow keys allows navigation between diffs with the arrow keys. It also has a version that requires holding Ctrl with the arrow key.
Frequently link to Wikipedia on your websites yet find generating CC-BY credits to be such a hassle? Say no more! User:Luke10.27/attribute will automatically do it for ya and copy the credit to yer clipboard.
User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft, a spiritual successor (i.e. fork) to Evad37's script, with a few bugs solved, and a host of extra features like check-boxes for choosing draftification reasons, multi-contributor notification, and appropriate warnings based on last edit time.
/CopyCodeBlock: one of the most important operations for any scripter and script-user is to copy and paste. This script adds a copy button in the top right of every code block (not to be confused with <code>) that will, well, copy it to your clipboard!
m:User:NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh/AceForLuaDebugConsole.js adds the Ace editor (a.k.a. the editor you see when editing JS, CSS and Lua on Wikimedia wikis) to the Lua debug console. "In my opinion, whoever designed it to be a plain <textarea> needs to seriously reconsider their decision."
GANReviewTool quickly and easily closes good article nominations.
ReviewStatus displays whether or not a mainspace page is marked as reviewed.
SpeciesHelper tries to add the correct speciesbox, category, taxonbar, and stub template to species articles.
User:Opencooper/svgReplace and Tol's fork replaces all rasterized SVGs with their original SVG codes for your loading pleasures. Tell us which one is better!
ArticleInfo displays page information at the top of the page, directly below the title.
/HeaderIcons takes away the Vector 2022 user dropdown and replaces it with all of the icons within, top level, right next to the Watchlist. One less click away! There's also an alternate version that uses text links instead of icons.
Could line 7 of WhatRedirects here be changed to mw.config.get('wgArticlePath').replace('$1','Special:WhatLinksHere')+?hidetrans=1&hidelinks=1&target='+encodeURIComponent(mw.config.get('wgPageName')),? This way, the script wouldn't be confined to just enwiki. Aaron Liu (talk) 22:07, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm glad you find the script useful, and wish to globalise it, @Aaron Liu. I haven't been around WP much in the last many months, and don't even remember where it's used or how it works.

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.
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.
Without caching. Each script takes 400–500ms. A particularly large script takes 1.11 s! Internet download speed is 50 Mbps.With caching enabled. Each script takes just 1-2 ms to load.
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.
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!
Doǵu/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 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.
Guycn2/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.
PrimeHunter/Category source.js adds portlet links to tell you where a category for an article comes from and supports those from template transclusions.
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.
NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh/AjaxLoader makes paging links (e.g. older 50, 500, newest) load without refreshing and makes you realize how slow your internet actually is.
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!
Jonesey/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.
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.
/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?
/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!
Hey there, welcome to the 25th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter, covering all our favorite new and updated user scripts since 1 March 2024. We've got a ton of wonderful editors taking back their pitchforks today. Don't worry, for they come in peace, to forcibly fix and extend existing scripts you use with sheer passion. There's so many, them forks have got what's basically their own column now! gift us with some rows before it's too late Aaron Liu (talk) 04:01, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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.
An easily configurable script to add a link to the #p-vector-user-menu-overflow portlet with a name, target, and icon. This one should be a relatively easier one. I would do it myself, but I'm too busy rotting away on Celeste (video game).
After the ＲＩＩＪ update, Aaron Liu: Watchlyst Greybar Unsin has a dismiss button that allows you to mark an item as read in one click and cycle to the next Watchlist item.
Lordseriouspig/StatusChangerImproved is just like Enterprisey's script, except you select your status from a dropdown instead of cycling through them with a button. The WMF operates out of car-centric infrastructure anyway. Shame!
Aaron Liu has created Duplinks from Evad37/duplinks-alt; his fork adds a config variable to automatically highlight duplicate links on the loading of any page where the portlet link would've appeared.
Tired of staring at a bunch of filtering text and waiting for darn filter logs to load? Msz2001/AbuseFilter analyzer can parse abuse filters into a visual syntax tree and evaluate locally on-demand!
Polygnotus/DuplicateReferences finds references with the same link and displays the number of them along with a button to add the {{duplicated citations}} tag under the references section. Being lazy has never been easier!
fastest gun on the net Ponor/really-quick-block really quick add to contribution lists three buttons awesome

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
Hello Guarapiranga. I noticed your attempt to fix a ping. Unfortunately, that method does not work. The notifications system only informs a user when you link their username in the same saved edit as you successfully sign your post. A ping cannot be fixed in a later edit by adding your signature or fixing a botched username. Instead, reference the user by adding
