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!

===[[File:Cscr-featured.svg|20px]] Featured script===
:Very useful for changelist patrollers, '''[[User:Nardog/DiffUndo|DiffUndo]]''', by '''[[User:Nardog|Nardog]]''', is this edition's featured script. Taking inspiration from [[WP:AutoWikiBrowser]]'s double-click-to-undo feature, it adds an undo button to every line of every diff from "show changes", optimizing partial reverts with your favorite magic spell and nearly fulfilling [[m:Community Wishlist/Wishes/Partial revert undo]].
* [[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]]! I wonder if Wikipedia has a templaters' newsletter...
===[[File:Ambox important.svg|20px]] Improve a script===
* 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. You could be the one to change that!
* [[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].
* allow you to edit {{tl|sfn}} references graphically a la [[:User:Ingenuity/ReferenceEditor.js|Ingenuity/ReferenceEditor]]
* copy specific named references from other pages to help with splitting and whatnot
* make adding icons/links to the top toolbar (or other portlets) much easier
* graphically generate a {{tl|source assess table}}
* 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.
* 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: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.
===[[File:Gnome-colors-list-add.svg|20px]] New scripts===
<!--The current convention is to use the [[Example/ScriptName]] notation for scripts added by someone other than the script author and [[Example]]: [[SciptName]] for scripts the author adds themselves. Of course, you are always free to ignore all rules.-->
* [[User:1AmNobody24|1AmNobody24]]: [[User:1AmNobody24/Find Link|Find Link]] provides a shortcut to its namesake tool, [[User:Edward/Find link|Edward/Find link]], which helps de-[[WP:ORPHAN]] articles.
* [[File:Wikipedia Contribs ranger screenshot of contributions by Jimbo Wales dark mode.png|frameless|right]][[User:Andrybak|Andrybak]]: [[User:Andrybak/Scripts/Contribs ranger|Contribs ranger]] (''pictured'') generates links to a limited range of [[Help:User contributions|user contributions]], log items, or page history. You see, it's not just [[Wikipedia:Glossary#Contribs|contribs]]!
* [[User:CanonNi/Scripts/VoteVisualizer|CanonNi/VoteVisualizer]] is a rewrite of [[User:Pythoncoder/Scripts/voteSymbols|Pythoncoder/voteSymbols]] that makes everything saner to configure.
* 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.
* 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:Nardog/InsertAnyChar|Natdog/InsertAnyChar]] adds a searchable list of all Unicode characters to the 2010 source editor.
* [[Wikipedia talk:Scripts++/Issue 26|Discuss this issue]]

Doğu/Adiutor, a recent WP:Twinkle/WP:RedWarn-like userscript that follows modern WMF UI design, is now 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.
DannyS712, our former chief editor, has ascended to MediaWiki and the greener purpley pastures of PHP with commits creating Special:NamespaceInfo and the __EXPECTUNUSEDTEMPLATE__ magic word to exclude a template from Special:UnusedTemplates! I wonder if Wikipedia has a templaters' newsletter...
