mobile hotcat. And the current HotCat won't run on mobile. I suggest you to update your script so it at least replicates the beta Categories feature. Then IMO, there will be no reason not to remove the beta. And if I am not mistaken HotCat is a global gadget and most wikis have it, not sure we had "a community discussion" to add this gadget on every wikis where it is installed. Sometimes it is hard to find discussion participants particularly on smaller wikis. IMO, if a gadget is useful, we should be
22: 232: 733:. The code has been cleaned up extensively, so that is now hopefully readable, making maintenance easier. A few minor issues such as lack of failure handling for getting messages from the API have also been fixed. Also, the script will not modify the thanks button (or make any other CSS changes) if the page is not editable (due to lack of permissions). 434:
I see. Let's suppose Categories beta feature is removed, and it is replaced by one of these scripts (yours/TheDJ's). We wouldn't be able to add(/remove) categories to a page easily. The beta feature currently allows one to add categories to a page without editing the wikitext. It is partially like a

One concern was that the script had used plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to construct the button, which I believe has been addressed. I fully 214:. (Note, the GA badges are using a more generic styling in order to be consistent across all languages. The same styling is shown regardless of whether the Compact Language Links betafeature is enabled - i.e. this is controlled directly by Wikidata.) Hence I recommend removing the gadget entirely. 388:
and a beta feature is available. I think you can submit a edit request instead. Also your script uses wgTitle and it is restricted to mainspace. I don't think it will be much useful if you only include mainspace. Add another thing why you are hiding hidden categories on mobile? This script should

In one breath "socking", in the same "no behavioral issues". Yeah, no. That's not how that works. It's not gravedancing to say "he's not allowed to contribute here right now" and to point that out when he is apparently cited as the primary creator by the person suggesting the tool should be used
663:. They were banned here for sockpuppeting not script abusing. I've interacted with FR a few times, and I see no behaviourial issues. No abuse on other wikis. They are also active on phabricator and Gerrit, no sign of technical abuse there either. It sucks that some people like to gravedance over 410:
As a developer on the mobile project, I can share that there is a possibility we might be removing the beta (and possibly with it the categories beta feature which hasn't been maintained in several years) - hence why I'm interested in getting a more simple global gadget available.
464:
i don't have any plans to expand the category gadget I wrote. I just wanted to provide an option if it does get removed. The code of the beta feature is pretty neglected. It has been touched in a couple of years so I would be hard pressed not to support its removal.

I assume they're suggesting that the search and replace button in the Advanced subtoolbar be copied onto the Cite subtoolbar.
