2923:

please look it over and see what you can do. I'd be happy to do any specific testing you want to make sure that none of the changes I made break anything (and I think I've already done most all of the test, although I didn't save them all).

1119:"team" right now. We could certainly do with your help there. I don't think you need to be super-active in admin duties to make having the admin tools worthwhile; even if you make only a few admin actions every now and again, your having the admin tools is still a benefit to the project. And being an admin doesn't mean that you have to change your editing patterns (and neither would I want you to). It just means that you have a few extra buttons that mean you can help out once in a while if you see a need for it. Honestly, I don't think you would have any problem at all passing RfA; I know answering the questions might be a bit of a pain, but as long as you don't ignore the RfA page entirely I think that you would be a shoo-in. Are you sure that you aren't willing to give it a try? — 4049: 3474: 2055:

unchallenging grunt work that doesn't teach coding. It teaches a data markup syntax that usually is only seen in output, and practice entering it manually won't generally be of use to those interested in programming. Getting kids involved in some aspect of the actual MediaWiki PHP code (give them some of the simpler unresolved bugs, feature requests, or create new ones for them?) seems like it would more appropriately fulfill Google Code-in's goal of introducing them to open-source development. If no one wants them to be doing that stuff then it's pointless to participate in a program like Code-in in the first place.

There would be added complications and continued maintenance: We'd need to maintain additional data on which scripts need to load in which situations, and if there isn't someone around continually checking to make sure that information is accurate for all scripts, it'll start failing down the line. The current script/template can be used forever with no intervention, barring some unforeseen changes to MediaWiki. 3044: 961: 5302: 5095: 4952: 4678: 4449: 4351: 3506: 3264: 6137: 5860: 5822: 5784: 5746: 5708: 5670: 5632: 5507: 4912: 4311: 4276: 4241: 4170: 4137: 4019: 3859: 3438: 2956: 5243: 5396: 5898: 5547: 4786: 2855: 21: 696:'s noautoinstall=yes param. Although it may be disabling your script installer, the text that users see in the footnote is still the same "Copy this in your common.js". If the script is not supposed to be installed automatically because more than a simple importScript() is needed, then it doesn't make sense the footnote to tell users to subst a template in their common.js that does only that. So it seems in those cases the 4884: 3380: 2705:, why protect a page that only the user and admins can edit so only admins can edit it? That makes NO sense to me. I suggest unprotecting it as the only thing that protection is doing is preventing the maintainer of the script from maintaining it. Then, if Equazcion doesn't reply to my request below in a few days, would you be willing to take a look at it and make the changes please? Thanks. — 1461:

loud, templates like reflist, infobox, naxvbox, !, •, etc are now also essentially interface elements that affect everyone the way MediaWiki pages do, so that could be one possible hook. But again, I'm predicting a lot of "solution in search of a problem" votes, unless there's enough credible testimony that this a need that's comparably dire to that of the original template editor user right.

mediawiki software doesn't allow for cross-wiki watchlists, the least we could do is provide the links for navigating. The gadget would need to get a list of which projects a user's unified login has an account with, and display a link to Special:Watchlist at each one. Obviously, the trick is getting the unified login information, but if toolserver tools

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Knowledge (see 1348:, it's obviously a technical swamp. But your username is available to a script, and that can be checked in some way, since toolserver tools use it, so that seems like the route to me. Plus, it has the advantage of looking exactly like other pages on wikipedia, with interlanguage links just tucked over to the left. 1323:

something like once a day, with a link to update it manually. Thinking out loud. Gah. It seems unnatural. I'm not big on complex applications via script; they tend to be the most susceptible to breaking down over time. It seems almost trivial to do this on the back-end at Wikimedia, in comparison to this.

These are documentation tasks, not coding tasks. Check the link above, Google Code-in has other categories of tasks in addition to coding. Yes, I think some students will be interested by the fact that, by editing wiki pages with basic JSON syntax, they are giving shape to specialized user interfaces

team is small, and we also have other responsibilities (which is part of why I'm writing you this message at past 9 o'clock at night, still at the office). As I said on the bug, we'll try to wrap up agreement on the basic requirements shortly, and then we can work on launching the first version. From

and kissing enough ass to actually win it. :) It puzzles me a little bit that anyone wants to be an admin, but that's an essay for another time. Practically speaking, there isn't really any admin duty I feel I could contribute substantially to anyway, other than perhaps the ability to edit others' JS

1073:

Hi Equazcion. :) Would you be interested in running for adminship? Your blocks seem far enough in the past, and your content work seems good enough, and we need more JavaScript coders with the bit. And as well as your excellent coding work, you have shown yourself to have a very good understanding of

It also seems like overstepping the intent of the script, and would make common.js more complicated for non-technical people to look at. I'm not looking to improve performance (a backend change seems more apt for that), but rather to simplify implementation of the current practices, reliably, so that

Thanks for the tips -- I've generally used literals in the past, but didn't know they were faster -- I actually just started using "new RegExp" recently because txt2re.com uses it :) I have a nominal grasp of regex and debugging it can sometimes cause areas of my brain to liquify and leak out my ear.

One could question the wisdom of posting such a thing, but I felt it was something that needed to be said; and the WMF would be in even more dire straits than I'd thought, if someone feeling insulted could actually halt the implementation of a community consensus. This is again just speculation. For

I'm not really so concerned with the other workings, but pulling in all the possible changes using the API is the issue. You're suggesting a saved cache - it would need to update periodically, I think, rather than run once. I guess it would be saved on the wiki where the script is installed, updated

Writ Keeper is correct. The top_icon template is meant to produce a graphic in the same location where the lock shows up (I think the locks themselves might even use the top_icon template). So what you're seeing there, instead of an additional icon next to the lock, is the part the template's source

251:

Especially the escaping makes expression a bit more difficult to write if you want to use RegExp . It is actually only needed if you want to create expression dynamically, that is, if you want to include text stored in a variable for example. If you have a fixed expression, a literal /.../ is easier

MediaWiki: pages are somewhat finicky, some of them allow no formating, some allow wikitext, others allow raw HTML, and some can even contain JavaScript or CSS. The point is that like other templates and modules, it requires a level of technical knowledge, and I don't see administrators having any

Hi Equazcion. :) You might have seen the recent messages about the Desktop Improvements project that we're just starting to work on. One of the existing tools/inspirations we've listed is your "Floater" userscript. I'm wondering if you know of any other gadgets/userscripts/etc that are not already

People with autism like to put things in order, and might find that kind of data entry sort of hypnotically comfortable. Tasks most people find boring can be appealing to autistics. I've often thought I myself am a borderline case. I apologize if you saw my comment as making light of autism, but I

The ability for you to edit others' JS pages would come in very handy around now, what with everyone's scripts breaking because of the removal of those deprecated functions. And how about answering protected edit requests? We often get requests for JS pages in the MediaWiki namespace, and we don't

you provided, and most of those seem much more on-target. On first read I thought this template parameter stuff was all there was, my mistake. Now I'm not really sure what the purpose of pointing out that one was, if you were just looking for new task ideas? ...but in any event, if this parameter

1436:

Hey there Equazcion! Do you think enough time has passed since TE was created to ask if the community thinks expansion to include MediaWiki: might be appropriate? It uses exactly the same skill-set as template and modules, and if there are any specific MediaWiki pages people are concerned about

1257:

Looks like they could theoretically do it. I'm not sure how fast it would be be with all the individual API calls, and again I'm not seeing any way to list only the wikis where you actually have a watchlist, so I think it would mean an API call for every wiki you've ever logged into on each load.

1163:

I literally just had an idea pop into my head for a gadget, and it seems right up your alley. Since I don't know how to program such a thing, I thought I'd put it here and see if it strikes you as something worth pursuing. Quite simply, it's an interwiki sidebar for your watchlist page. Since the

That's actually more-or-less working as intended: it's the actual code of the top icon template, or more accurately the result of rendering the template's code. Since you're viewing the template directly, its parameters (imagename, description) haven't been given any values, so it spits out that

We could be spending more time here discussing what Google Code-in students want and need. Instead, I'd rather let them decide with their feet. These students have hundreds of tasks to choose from. If they don't like these, they will choose other, if they don't like ours, they will go to another

1460:

Tough one. My gut tells me it has a good chance of failing as there isn't as much apparent need for it, as far as Ive seen, but I could be wrong. I'm also not really prepared to head up another one of those. If you got someone else to get something started I'd offer my input though. Thinking out

1343:

I don't know for sure, but I would think that in order to grab all the interwiki watchlist data, you'd have to be logged in to every project, since watchlist tokens are not public, and they differ across wikis. You couldn't just login to en.wiki and have any other work at that time. Since it's a

I see you've been away a little over a month now, and I'm wondering how you are. I've commented on a few discussions on your talk page for you and have resolved a few of the questions asked, but I also have a request of my own that can only be resolved by you or an admin. If you have a moment,

That's better. Great stuff. I keep wondering about learning how to do this sort of thing. I used to program COBOL (and create .COM and .BAT files), and these things now are so much shorter and more powerful. I created a password handling prog in COBOL once, and I hate to think how many pages of

Although in seriousness, even though they do the same thing in effect, I'm not sure what the benefit is to it inserting the full mw.loader line, as it just points statically to en-wiki anyway. Maybe it was written before the importScript function was available? I guess the two should be merged,

2054:

I don't see how that's documentation. It's data entry. Template parameters are already documented, but they need to be entered as arrays to make Visual Editor better. The reason no one here wants to do it is the same reason you probably shouldn't have had kids doing it -- it's boring, tedious,

I'm honored that you'd suggest this, but I'm not really interested in being an admin. Frankly you couldn't pay me enough. Well, that's probably not true. I certainly wouldn't do it for free though, and I'd need a substantial bonus for voluntarily putting myself through one of those
