:I think that it looks like a very useful script for [[WP:US]]. I don't see how it would help to have it in the sitewide monobook.js, since it seems that the only people who will use it will do so from scripts they are already adding to their personal monobook.js. If there were some function coded into a standard template that required it, that would be an argument in favor. Of course there is also the magic word <nowiki>{{urlencode}}</nowiki> built into mediawiki. [[User:CMummert|CMummert]] · <small>[[User talk:CMummert|talk]]</small> 23:22, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

== Better search engine ==

After requests from WikipediaSearch.net I copied the enhanced search JavaScript from fr:; feel free to revert or alter. [[User:David.Monniaux|David.Monniaux]] 20:14, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

:Umm...how difficult would it be to announce and discusss it first? The code could be shorter and more readable. Formatting could definitely be better. And all those sites can now track Wikipedia visitors because of the pictures. — [[User:Alex Smotrov|Alex Smotrov]] 20:24, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

::This was apparently announced and discussed before. [[User:David.Monniaux|David.Monniaux]] 20:29, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

:::Where? It doesn't seem to have been announced here or at [[Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)]]. [[User talk:Mike Dillon|Mike Dillon]] 20:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

:What in the bejesus was that? Do away with the advertising, even for other free services thank you very much. And get the alignment right. [[User:Splash|Splash]] - [[User talk:Splash|tk]] 23:01, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

:Sorry for my english is poor.

:I am the french editor of the http://www.wikipediaondvd.com, and also of http://www.wikipediasearch.net.

:And I want to show you the difference beetwen our engine and the engine of wikipedia :

:http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&search=nasa&fulltext=Search

:http://www.wikipediasearch.net/index.php?action=nasa&lang=en

:You can see the related vocabulary that is helping the internaute to find what is want like this :

:http://www.wikipediasearch.net/index.php?lang=en&action=nasa%20astronaut

:So really, i think that it is for that we have a better search.

:We improve our engine every day at the end of the week we have got a very nice version to propose.

:Bye

::The search looks nice, but that doesn't change the fact that there needs to be concensus to add it. Using [[Special:Linksearch/*.wikipediasearch.net]], I only see discussion on one user's talk page and a single mention at [[Wikipedia talk:Version 0.5]]. Using a link search for [[Special:Linksearch/*.wikipediaondvd.com|wikipediaondvd.com]] finds a few more places this may have been discussed, although nothing with much visibility. It also looks like this was also added into the interface text at [[MediaWiki:Searchnoresults]] on April 7. [[User talk:Mike Dillon|Mike Dillon]] 02:36, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

There is something weird here. I was contacted on IRC by [[User:DragonflySixtyseven]] who told me that the matter had been discussed and all was needed was a technical fix, which he didn't feel comfortable doing because he did not know how to hack JavaScript. [[User:David.Monniaux|David.Monniaux]] 05:10, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

I was thinking that the concensus are find on saturday afternoon on IRC, i speak with

[[User:DragonflySixtyseven]] and he told me that we can modify the page of the namespace 8, I was explain to [[User:DragonflySixtyseven]] that the community are very happy to see our engine

http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Linksearch/*.wikipediasearch.net [[User:Pmartin76|Pmartin76]] 05:32, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

It doesn't help that PMartin76's English isn't the best, and that I was feeling sickly all weekend. If this is inappropriate, revert it. [[User:DragonflySixtyseven|DS]] 13:31, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

==Sorting==

I plan to add a bug fix for sorting tables, like I have done on Meta, to allow sorting of numbers with more than one thousands separator, see [[m:MediaWiki:Common.js]]. Any comments?--[[User:Patrick|Patrick]] 13:47, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Compare [[Help:Sorting#Making_variable-length_numbers_with_thousands_separators_sortable]] with [[m:Help:Sorting#Making_variable-length_numbers_with_thousands_separators_sortable]].--[[User:Patrick|Patrick]] 14:06, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

:I added it.--[[User:Patrick|Patrick]] 12:12, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
