[[Category:Wikipedia scripts|{{PAGENAME}}]]

Really old unfullfiled user scripts [[Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Requests|requests]] are moved to this page.

Line 26 ⟶ 28:

== History of a single section of a page ==

This request is related to the one above about the watchlist. A way to only see the history for that section. It would be hard to search the whole page's history for one little change in one section. --<i><b>[[User:GeorgeMoney|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#5ADD22"><font; font-size="1:x-small;">George</span>]][[User:GeorgeMoney|George]]</font></font><fontspan sizestyle="1"font-size:x-small; color=":#FF0000;">Mon</span>]][[User:GeorgeMoney/Esperanza|Mon]]</font><fontspan sizestyle="1"font-size:x-small; color=:green;">e</span>]][[User:GeorgeMoney/Esperanza|e]]</font><fontspan sizestyle="1"font-size:x-small; color=":#FF0000;">[[User:GeorgeMoney|y]]</fontspan>]]</b></i>^{<font color="#0000FF"><span style="font-size: 6pt">[[User_talk:GeorgeMoney|Talk]]</span></font><span style="font-sizecolor: 3pt"></span><font color="#0000FF"><span; style="font-size: 6pt;">Talk</span>]]&nbsp;&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/GeorgeMoney|Contribs]]</span style="color:#0000FF; font-size:6pt;">Contribs</fontspan>]]} 22:21, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

: The ULS still is not implemented though. For the record. t is possible, check the last script in my monobook [[User:Voice of All/monobook.js]], and you will find a cross-site XML request system and instructions. I use a similar code to check Commons images licenses and a normal XML request script to inform me of all admin backlogs just like new messages. What you are asking for could be created by merging those ideas and applying it to al relavent wikis (though you would have to be logged into them).'''[[User talk:Voice of All|<fontspan colorstyle="color:blue;">Voice</fontspan><fontspan colorstyle="color:darkblue;">-of-</fontspan><fontspan colorstyle="color:black;">All</fontspan>]]''' 20:17, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

== Rename "edit this page" tab to "edit" ==

Line 99 ⟶ 101:

== Convert external links to <nowiki><ref></nowiki> tags ==

Is there any way to write a script that converts normal links in <nowiki><ref></nowiki> tags to use the {{tl|cite web}} template? Anything would be appreciated. -- [[User:Selmo|<fontspan colorstyle="color:red;"><b>Selmo</b></fontspan>]] ^{<i>([[User_talk:Selmo|talk]])</i>} 21:44, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

: You could use one of the regex search tools to search for <nowiki><ref>.*http:\/\/.*<\/ref></nowiki> or something. But automatically replacing is very difficult considering the large differences in the way these are linked. [[User:Gerbrant|Shinobu]] 23:14, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Line 111 ⟶ 113:

== Tag articles with <nowiki>{{prod}}</nowiki> ==

How about a script for tagging articles for PROD? We have them for speedy deletes and AFDs, but not PROD. It'd be pretty useful, I think. <fontspan colorstyle="color:#000000;">&spades;</span>[[User:PMC|P]]</font><fontspan colorstyle="color:#FF00FF000000;">P</span>]][[User_talk:PMC|M]]</font><fontspan colorstyle="color:#000000FF00FF;">M</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Premeditated Chaos|<span style="color:#000000;">C</span>]]<span style="color:#000000;">&spades;</fontspan> 20:16, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

== Automatic imagecopyvio script ==

I'd like an automatic imagecopyvio script, could be adapted from autocopyvio with a few simple additions and tweaks, such as adding user talk page notification, there isn't much work. I tried to modify it but failed. See [[User:Mecu/imagevio.js]]. --[[User:Mecu|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#CEBE70;">'''MECU'''</fontspan>]]≈<small>[[User talk:Mecu|talk]]</small> 23:01, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

== Automatically watchlist article of the day ==

I don't know if this is possible, but I'd like a script that automatically adds the article of the day to my watchlist, so I can revert vandalism there. If this is not possible, then perhaps something in the toolbox that says "add AOTD to watchlist" or something of the like. I'd appreciate any help, as I am a completly incompetent when it comes to scripts.

: Doing it automatically would be incredibly difficult to keep track of, so instead I've made it a toolbox link (per your second choice).

:# Pop-up a second window with [[Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images]], and place at the bottom of the page '''<nowiki>[[:Image:filename.ext]] - <!-- insert reason here --> ~~~~</nowiki>'''

:#: (It'd be great too if the "reason" that was inserted could be a pop-up text entry box.)

If this already exists, please let me know so I can start using it! And if not, I'd appreciate your help with it. The whole process is really time-consuming, and I feel that a lot of unfree images are being used because people don't have the patience to make all these edits. Thanks!

:Perhaps rather than opening a new window, the edits can be manually approved on the image page and then made with [[Ajax (programming)|Ajax]]? Gah... now we're turning into Google Web Development... (at least I am) It's possible, though. What does anyone else think about going about this?

== RC birds ==

What about a script version of RC birds that runs in the background, while still having controls in the form of a user subpage. {{<small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:CommonEditor2345|CommonEditor2345}}]] ([[User talk:CommonEditor2345|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/CommonEditor2345|contribs]]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->

:What are you talking about? Do you mean "RC birds" like an [[ornithopter]]? This page is for requests for scripts that help you improve the encyclopedia and it doesn't sound like that's what you're looking for. Sorry if I misunderstand.

Line 168 ⟶ 170:

Could anybody make me a rollback link thing? Up until now I've only done mostly color stuff with my monobook(on other wikis), but I'm interested in adding a rollback link. If you can, make it as similar to the one used by admins as possible. i.e. [ [[rollback]] ] looks like this, reverts last users edits, shows up on user contribution page, as well as the history of the page. I can't seem to find this anywhere, but I've heard of a few people doing it, so I'd like it for myself. Thanks, [[User:Pinky49|Pinky]] 06:03, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

:[[User:Ilmari_Karonen/godmode-light.js]] used to do this, but it hasn't been maintained for ages so I don't know if it still works. If it doesn't, fixing it would probably be easier than writing a new script. --[[User:ais523|ais523]] 12:54, 11 June 2007 ([[User:ais523|U]][[User talk:ais523|T]][[Special:Contributions/Ais523|C]])
