To install the script:

*Visit your user page. In the address bar, append "/monobook.js" to the end of the URL and press enter, and click "Edit this page"

==Code==

===JavaScript===

<pre>

// This will add an [edit top] link at the top of all pages except preview pages

// by User:Pile0nades

Line 7 ⟶ 30:

function editTopLink() {

// if this is preview page or generated page, stop

if(document.getElementById("wikiPreview") || window.___location.href.indexOf("w/index.php?title=wiki/Special:") != -1) return;

// get the page title

Line 17 ⟶ 40:

// insert divContainer into the DOM before the h1

if(window.___location.href.indexOf("&action=edit") == -1)

document.getElementById("content").insertBefore(divContainer, document.getElementsByTagName("h1")[0]);

if(window.___location.href.indexOf("&action=edit&section=0") != -1) {

document.getElementById("wpSummary").value = "/* Intro */ ";

}

}

setTimeout("editTopLink();", 250);

// This code here is useful for calling multiple functions on page load

</nowiki></pre>

if(window.addEventListener) window.addEventListener("load", dothese, false);

else if(window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload", dothese);

function dothese() {

// List the functions here

editTopLink(); // calls the edit top script

}

</pre>

==Usage==

[[Category:Wikipedia tools]]

Now go to any page on Wikipedia and the [edit top] link will appear at the top right. This link will load only the "zeroth" section of the article into the edit page.
