Hey there, welcome to the 25th issue of the Wikipedia [[Wikipedia:Scripts++|Scripts++ Newsletter]], covering all our favorite new and updated user scripts since {{#formatdate:2024-03-01|dmy}}. 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! <small>gift us with some rows before it's too late</small> [[User:Aaron Liu|<span style="color:#0645ad">Aaron Liu</span>]] ([[User talk:Aaron Liu#top|talk]]) 04:01, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

Hello everyone, and welcome to the 26th issue of the Wikipedia [[Wikipedia:Scripts++|Scripts++ Newsletter]], covering all our favorite new and updated user scripts since 1 August 2024. At press time, over 94% of the world has legally fallen prey to the merry celebrations of "Christmas", and so shall you soon. It's been a quiet 4 months, and we hope to see you with way more new scripts next year. Happy holidays!

: '''[[m:User:Ponor/inline-diff-inline-patrol|inline-diff-inline-patrol]]''' by '''[[m:User:Ponor|Ponor]]''' is this edition's featured script. By loading diffs inline on every page that shows a list of changes, it implements the 2023 community wish [[m:Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Admins and patrollers/Inline diffs and inline patrol]]. Hopefully we won't need this script anymore soon, with the WMF's [[m:Community Wishlist Survey/Wishlist Survey Audit 2023|focus on the backlog]]...

* [[User:Doğu/Adiutor|Doğu/Adiutor]], a recent [[WP:Twinkle]]/[[WP:RedWarn]]-like userscript that follows modern WMF UI design, is now [[mw:Extension:Adiutor|an extension]]. However, its sole maintainer has left the project, which still awaits WMF [[mw:code stewardship]] (among some audits) to be installed on your favorite WMF wikis.
* [[User:DannyS712|DannyS712]], our former chief editor, has ascended to [[MediaWiki]] and the <s>greener</s><!--Yes, the usage of the <s> element to denote "things that are no longer relevant or no longer accurate" here is intentional.--> <ins>purpley</ins> pastures of [[PHP]] with commits creating [[Special:NamespaceInfo]] and the <syntaxhighlight inline lang="wikitext">__EXPECTUNUSEDTEMPLATE__</syntaxhighlight> magic word to exclude a template from [[Special:UnusedTemplates]]!

* Many of our favorite scripts such as [[User:Fred Gandt/userResourceManager|Fred Gandt/userResourceManager]], [[User:Guarapiranga/search-shortcuts|Guarapiranga/search-shortcuts]] and [[User:Bradv/Scripts/Superlinks|Bradv/Superlinks]] haven't been updated for Vector 2022.

* [[User:Elominius/gadget/media timer|Elominius/media timer]] works, but its UI looks alien. Someone could improve it...
* [[User:Elominius/gadget/media timer|Elominius/media timer]] and [[User:PrimeHunter/Search sort.js|PrimeHunter/Search sort]] work, yet have alien [[user interface design]]. Someone could improve them...
* [[User:BilledMammal/Move+|BilledMammal/Move+]] needs updating to order list of pages handle lists of pages to move correctly regardless of the discussion's page, so that we may avoid repeating [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3AWikiProject_Weather&action=history&limit=10&offset=202412150415 fiasco history].
* To a lesser extent, the same goes for [[User:PrimeHunter/Search sort.js|PrimeHunter/Search sort]]. I wish someone would integrate the sorts into the sort menu instead of adding 11 portlet links.
* We want...
:* ...watchlist notices support for [[User:Aaron Liu/Watchlyst Greybar Unsin|Aaron Liu/Watchlyst Greybar Unsin]]
:* ...a tool to automatically fix [[CAT:BROKENREF]]s, preferably a fork/addition to [[User:TheJJJunk/ARA|TheJJJunk/ARA]]
:* ...a fix/fork of [[User:DannyS712/SectionRemover|DannyS712/SectionRemover]] to make it work

===[[File:Ambox clock yellow.svg|20px]] Requested scripts===
We need scripts that...
* Automatically delink all duplicate links within the same section per [[MOS:LINKONCE]].
* allow you to edit {{tl|sfn}} references graphically a la [[:User:Ingenuity/ReferenceEditor.js|Ingenuity/ReferenceEditor]]
* Collapsible parentheses in body text, which had [[Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests#Collapsible parentheses in body text|a ridiculously long original request title]] and was accidentally moved to [[WP:US/L]] by me. Oops!
* copy specific named references from other pages to help with splitting and whatnot
* 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)]].
* make adding icons/links to the top toolbar (or other portlets) much easier
* [[Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests#Mobile edit preview|Preview an edit under the mobile viewport on desktop]], with perhaps [[MediaWiki:Gadget-mobile-sidebar.js]] used for inspiration.
* graphically generate a {{tl|source assess table}}
* ...and many more, all available at [[Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests]]. [[User:Jeeputer|Jeeputer]] and [[User:Nardog|Nardog]] have been the most active on the page in the past five months.
* award a [[WP:Four Award|Four Award]]
* ...and many more, all available at [[Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests]]. Thanks to the editors at US/R—including [[User:Nardog|Nardog]], [[User:Novem Linguae]], [[User:Jeeputer]], and many more!—for their work in processing userscript requests this past year.

* [[User:Andrybak/Scripts/Unsigned helper|Andrybak/Unsigned helper]] forks [[User:Anomie/unsignedhelper|Anomie/unsignedhelper]] to add support for binary search, automatic edit summaries after generating the {{tl|unsigned}} template, support for {{tl|undated}}, and support for generating while syntax highlighting is on.
* After the <ruby>ＲＩＩＪ<rp>(</rp><rt>rewrite it in [[jQuery]]</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby> update, [[User:Aaron Liu|Aaron Liu]]: [[User:Aaron Liu/Watchlyst Greybar Unsin|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.
* Pour one out: [[User:DreamRimmer/User not around.js|DreamRimmer/User not around]] forks [[User:Andrybak/Scripts/Not around|Andrybak/Not around]] to allow configuration precise to a number of days (from the original precision of years).
* [[User:Lordseriouspig/StatusChangerImproved|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!
* [[User:Red-tailed hawk/cv revdel.js|Red-tailed hawk/cv revdel]] forks [[User:Enterprisey/cv-revdel|Enterprisey/cv-revdel]] to automatically add CopyPatrol reports.
* [[User:Frost/moveplus.js|Polygnotus/Move+]] updates BilledMammal's classic Move+ to add automattic watchlisting of all pages—except the target page(s)—changed while processing a move.

* Administrators only! [[User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/UnblockReview|Novem Linguae/UnblockReview]] forks the now-broken [[User:Enterprisey/unblock-review|Enterprisey/unblock-review]] to review unblock requests with a graphical interface.
* [[User:Aaron Liu|Aaron Liu]] has created [[User:Aaron Liu/duplinks.js|Duplinks]] from [[User:Evad37/duplinks-alt|Evad37/duplinks-alt]]; {{their|Aaron Liu}} fork adds a config variable to automatically highlight duplicate links on the loading of any page where the portlet link would've appeared.
* [[User:BilledMammal/Move+|BilledMammal/Move+]] expands the powers of [[User:TheTVExpert/rmCloser]] to include common procedures done with the art of moving pages.
* On a holiday? Somewhere? Gotta learn ye ABCs? [[User:CanonNi/Scripts/StatusSetter|CanonNi/StatusSetter]] puts the fun into [[User:Enterprisey/StatusChanger|Enterprisey/StatusChanger]] with a quadruple more statuses. That starts with a C!
* In our continuing trend(s?), [[User:DaxServer/DiscussionCloser|DaxServer/DiscussionCloser]] forks [[User:DannyS712/DiscussionCloser|DannyS712/DiscussionCloser]] to make it work. Sadly, this is the end of our lexicographic combo.
* [[User:Andrybak|Andrybak]]:
** [[User:Andrybak/Scripts/user-tabs-on-contribs|user-tabs-on-contribs]] is a fork of [[User:Enterprisey/user-tabs-on-contribs]] for [[Wikipedia:Vector 2022|Vector 2022]].
** [[User:Andrybak/Scripts/Archiver|Archiver]] is a fork of [[User:Enterprisey/archiver]] with automatic calculation of the destination archive subpage and with support for non-Vector skins.
* Quite coincidentally, [[User:Elli/OneClickArchiver|Elli/OneClickArchiver]] has been forked from [[User:Equazcion/OneClickArchiver]] to work with the [[mw:Heading HTML changes]].
* [[User:FlightTime/OneClickArchiver|FlightTime/OneClickArchiver]] forks the same thing but also no longer nonsensically prepends {{tl|clear}} to page archives.

* [[User:Andrybak/Scripts/Not around|Andrybak/Not around]] can help you mark talk pages of inactive users with {{tl|not around}}.
* [[User:CanonNi/Scripts/VoteVisualizer|CanonNi/VoteVisualizer]] is a rewrite of [[User:Pythoncoder/Scripts/voteSymbols|Pythoncoder/voteSymbols]] that makes everything saner to configure.
* [[User:BrandonXLF/AddCopied|BrandonXLF/AddCopied]] automatically tags talk pages of pages you've copied between with {{tl|copied}}.
* When viewing [[:Category:Articles missing coordinates with coordinates on Wikidata]], [[User:Jeeputer/coordInserter|Jeeputer/coordInserter]] adds links to automatically insert coordinates into the article selected.
* [[User:Bugghost/Scripts/UserRoleIndicator|Bugghost/UserRoleIndicator]] adds text labels (which default to emoji) to user links that label the user's usergroups. Wow, that's a mouthful
* To satiate archaeology and curiosity (the same thing, perhaps?), [[User:JJPMaster/AfC time logger|JJPMaster/AfC time logger]] logs the time it takes for a user to review each submission to [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation]].
* [[User:CanonNi/Scripts/AlertAssistant|CanonNi/AlertAssistant]] adds a Twinkle-style dialog for alerting users about contentious topics.
* [[User:Nardog/InsertAnyChar|Natdog/InsertAnyChar]] adds a searchable list of all Unicode characters to the 2010 source editor.
* [[User:CFA/scripts/AttributeTranslation|CFA/AttributeTranslation]] automatically tags articles translated from other places with appropriate attribution.
* In the defense of the 'pedia, the humble [[User:Jeeputer/defconIndicator|Jeeputer/defconIndicator]] adds the [[WP:WIKIDEFCON]] status to the toolbar.
* Tired of staring at a bunch of filtering text and waiting for darn filter logs to load? [[m:User:Msz2001/AbuseFilter analyzer|Msz2001/AbuseFilter analyzer]] can parse abuse filters into a visual syntax tree and evaluate locally on-demand!
* [[User:Polygnotus/DuplicateReferences|Polygnotus/DuplicateReferences]] finds references with the same link and displays the number of them along with a button to add the {{tl|duplicated citations}} tag under the references section. Being lazy has never been easier!
* fastest gun on the net [[m:User:Ponor/really-quick-block|Ponor/really-quick-block]] really quick add to contribution lists three buttons awesome
* [[User:TheTechie/Help Me Tool.js|TheTechie/Help Me Tool]] is a quick and easy way of responding to {{tl|help me}} requests.
* Per [[MOS:CONFORM]], [[User:ZKang123/TitleCaseConverter|ZKang123/TitleCaseConverter]] converts all citation titles to... title case, unfortunately.
