{{Pinggroup|list=yes|Theopolisme|mabdul|Hasteur|Bility|Equazcion|Writ Keeper}} can one of you help me understand how callbacks work? I have the hardest time understanding them, as is evident by this and a few other stalled ideas of mine. It's not like I can chain things together with .done() statements, as those don't seem to work in the older version of jQuery that we are using. How do I force the script to process parts of the script before or after others. I want to be able to have it process all of the parts that gather information from APIs first, obviously, and then format/process/decided how to offer that information after. Can someone tweak this script so that this happens, or tell me how to do it (preferred), and if you do it yourself, tell me why yours worked and why mine wasn't. Thanks.

* I almost forgot to mention, since stats.grok.se is not using https, you will run into the script being blocked because it is mixed mode unless you either disable the block (I know it can be done on [about:config about:config] in firefox, not sure about other browsers.) or you manage to force your way to the http version of Wikipedia. This will be a major "issue" for this script until someone takes the time to recode stats.grok.se on labs or something so it can be https. (I'm looking into trying to do itmyself, but have little understanding of how to write tools on labs at the moment. Hopefully I can get {{Pinggroup|list=yes|Legoktm|Cyberpower678|Theopolisme|Hasteur|Petrb}} or someone else that knows how such a thing might be written to help me. I know that I'll be able to get all of the information for it from [http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/ http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/]. Anyways, thanks for any help I can get. [[User:Technical 13|Technical 13]] ([[User talk:Technical 13|talk]]) 22:20, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
