Revision as of 17:04, 4 December 2007
This page is an attempt to determine which scripts should be added to the 'Gadgets' section of Special:Preferences. You can help by writing comments explaining why a script should or should not be included.
Rules
(This is only a first attempt, feel free to edit these if you disagree with any or want to suggest new ones)
- Gadgets must work if just included with no further configuration. (They may be configurable via monobook.js, but must work even if not configured.)
- Gadgets must work in all major browsers.
- Gadgets must not be so powerful that new users using them would be likely to cause disruption by mistake.
- Gadgets must be in MediaWiki space. (This is a technical restriction, although it exists for good reason; it can be fixed simply by moving scripts to MediaWiki space, although the permission of the script's maintainer, if any, should be found first.)
- Gadgets must not require their own source code to be edited to update them.
- There must not be multiple gadgets with exactly the same apparent effect.
- Gadgets should not be a collection of multiple scripts (although they can be one script with multiple functions); splitting off the scripts separately makes more sense.
- Gadgets should not rely on non-Wikimedia websites for their operation.
- Gadgets should be useful for a wide set of users.
- Gadgets should not require any permissions other than a username (possibly scripts that require autoconfirmed should be allowed, depending on what they do, but this should be made clear).
Scripts
| Script | Gadgetability |
|---|---|
Navigating to Edit page | |
| [[/../Scripts/Add edit section 0/]] | probably redundant to the next script, which is designed as a more portable version |
| Simplified edit section 0 | no obvious problems (ais523: I'm happy for this to be moved to MediaWiki space, but remember to leave a script redirect in place (this can be done with {{subst:js}})!) There is some problem with the profusion of edit-top scripts around, though; clearly they shouldn't all be used. |
| [[/../Scripts/Edit Top/]] | |
| Gerbrant.edit.top | |
| Universal EditTop | |
| Randall Bart's Fiddle Edit Tab | |
| [[/../Scripts/Talk page section tabs/]] | |
| HighlightEditSections.js | |
Editing | |
| wikEd | not portable between browsers |

| Gerbrant.edit.autoReplace | |
| XEB | |
| qPreview | |
| Quick Preview | |
| defaultsort | |
| [[/../Scripts/Force edit summary/]] | |

| Sidebar translator | |
| Selfrefs as a tab | not reliable |
| HighlightRedirects | |
Discussions | |
| !Vote symbols | Is it a good or bad idea to include this? It's a compromise that adds symbols to your own view rather than everyone's which has been useful in de-escalating the argument in the past, but it may encourage a 'voting mentality'. |
| Username highlighter | not portable |
| Username highlighter 2 | portable version of previous script (ais523: I'm happy for this to be moved to userspace; no problems I know of, unless you happen to have a username that's a common English word) |
| Admin highlighter | relies on changing the imported code |
