{{edit protected|answered=yes}}
I've reformatted and edited parts of the code. Please change the current code to the code found at [[User:MC10/defaultsummaries.js]]:

:: I've tested the code in IE 7+ and Firefox 7.0.1. All that it does is switch <code><nowiki>addOnloadHook</nowiki></code> with the jQuery <code><nowiki>$</nowiki></code>, which does the same thing without using deprecated code, and used some more commonly-used code (<code><nowiki>""</nowiki></code> instead of <code><nowiki>new String()</nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki>functionname</nowiki></code> instead of <code><nowiki>new Function("functionname()")</nowiki></code>, etc.).

== Installation on Wikivoyage ==

How could this gadget be made available on Wikivoyage? 
Different standard summaries would be preferable, but I assume that would just be a matter of adjusting the code to suit. &bull; &bull; &bull; [[User:Pbsouthwood|Peter (Southwood)]] [[User talk:Pbsouthwood|<sup>(talk)</sup>]]: 17:43, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

== Request for Gadget modification ==

Could the two lists be taken out of the gadget itself and a generic version be placed in [[MediaWiki:Gadget-defaultsummaries/standard]] and [[MediaWiki:Gadget-defaultsummaries/minor]] if [[User:ExampleUser/Gadget-defaultsummaries/standard|User:&lt;username&gt;/Gadget-defaultsummaries/standard]] and/or [[User:ExampleUser/Gadget-defaultsummariesminor|User:&lt;username&gt;/Gadget-defaultsummaries/minor]] do not exist.  Also, selecting a ''minor'' summary should also check the ''minor edit'' checkbox. <span class="ShoeSig">— [[User:Technical 13]]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Technical_13|C]]&nbsp;•&nbsp;[[User_talk:Technical_13|M]]&nbsp;• [[User:Technical_13/Sig|Click to learn how to view this signature as intended ]])</span> 16:43, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

== Removing unsourced content ==

<small>(Copied from [[en:Help_talk:Preferences#Quick_edit_summaries]], to proper place here. Sorry about that. — [[User:TransporterMan|<span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS; color:blue; font-variant:small-caps;">'''TransporterMan'''</span>]] ([[User talk:TransporterMan|<span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS"; font-size:x-small">TALK</span>]]) 16:14, 10 July 2013 (UTC))</small>

At Preferences:Gadgets:Editing there is a checkoff preference for "'''Add two new dropdown boxes below the edit summary box with some useful default summaries'''". When enabled, one of the quick preference selections is: "'''Removing unsourced content'''". Due to a change in [[WP:BURDEN]] back around October, 2012, this summary is inadequate and its use would be, arguably, a violation of policy, which says, "When tagging or removing material for not having an inline citation, please state your concern that there may not be a published reliable source for the content, and therefore it may not be verifiable.<ref>When tagging or removing such material, please keep in mind that such edits can be easily misunderstood. Some editors object to others making chronic, frequent, and large-scale deletions of unsourced information, especially if unaccompanied by other efforts to improve the material. Do not concentrate only on material of a particular POV, as that may result in accusations that you are in violation of [[WP:NPOV]]. Also check to see whether the material is sourced to a citation elsewhere on the page. For all of these reasons, it is advisable to communicate clearly that you have a considered reason to believe that the material in question cannot be verified.</ref>"
{{reflist-talk|close=1}}
Could it be changed to read "Removing unsourced content, no published reliable source may exist, thus perhaps not verifiable", which would now seem to be the minimum statement allowable for this particular edit summary? (Just for the record, let me note that I am on the record at the [[WP:V]] talk page as feeling that this requirement is ridiculous, a position which I still maintain, but I'm not trying to be [[WP:POINT|pointy]] by making this request, but truly only trying to help editors avoid stepping into a pitfall by using the tools provided by WP.)

:Perhaps it would be simpler for it to be removed instead? To save anyone else having to do the search: the list is hard-coded in [[MediaWiki talk:Gadget-defaultsummaries.js]], so that's where the edit would be needed. -- [[User:John of Reading|John of Reading]] ([[User talk:John of Reading|talk]]) 14:54, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

== VE support ==

{{edit protected|ans=y}}
I changed the gadget code to support both the classic editing and visual editor interface. For the regular editing this change doesn't affects anything, and for VE editing it adds summaries dropdown boxes near summary box.

Thanks, [[User:ערן|Eran]] ([[User talk:ערן|talk]]) 10:00, 12 October 2013 (UTC)

You’re right on orthography, though it’s not a widely-used word. Style/layout errors does not cover punctuation errors, as I understand it. “Style” there means, or seems to mean, things like use of italic or putting commas inside or outside of quotes, not language use. I could live with Copyedit (minor). However, I think punctuation’s importance should be made visible. Maybe editors will pay it more attention.

On the menu "Common minor edit summaries — click to use" I would like to have "Typo" as an item on that list, as it comes up so frequently. "Typo" is short for "typographical error" – an error in typing. For example, writing 2219 instead of 2019. It isn't covered by any of the items on the menu 
now, it's not a spelling mistake, and it's a very common type of minor correction, at least in my experience. Thank you. [[User:Deisenbe|deisenbe]] ([[User talk:Deisenbe|talk]]) 19:36, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

::I can't find it, I suppose I must not have saved it. So I'll redo it:

Some errors do not fit into "Spelling/grammar/punctuation". For example, writing 2220 instead of 2020 is an error, what editors (non-WP) call typographical.

"Expanding article" is too big for details and small bits of information. So propose adding "Adding information" and "Adding detail", which I use often but have to write out.

"Adding/removing Wikilinks" I use, and I suppose others would to, much more often than the two above it (one of which I'm proposing deleting).

Category edits are done through Hotcat. Those few instances when they can't they can be entered manually. So delete it. 

Most copyedits are too small for major and too big for minor. And Clean-up means the same. So combine them, deleting "major".

I use these menus multiple times every day. "All the time."  Thanks. [[User:Deisenbe|deisenbe]] ([[User talk:Deisenbe|talk]]) 15:02, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
:I think you mean this talkpage itself, at [[#Change requested]]?  I don't know that clarifying "typo" adds much, maybe just saying {{tq|Typographical/grammar/punctuation correction}}?  Four-in-one seems a lot.  I think combining "cleanup" and "copyedit" in the major list is fine.  HotCat is not universal, so I wouldn't want to remove the category item.  I don't know that "Adding information" and "Adding detail" are particularly helpful in addition to "Expanding article" and would just clutter the menu with barely-distinguishable options.  Maybe you'd want to consider something like [[User:Enterprisey/CustomSummaryPresets]] or [[User:BrandonXLF/EasySummary]]?  They seem to do what you might want. ~  <span style="color:#DF00A0">Amory</span><small style="color:#555"> ''([[User:Amorymeltzer|u]] • [[User talk:Amorymeltzer|t]] • [[Special:Contributions/Amorymeltzer|c]])''</small> 16:00, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
::So you'll change cleanup/copyedit, removing "major"?
::Instead of "Expanding article", how about changing it to "Adding information"? That seems the most inclusive of the three (Expanding article/adding information/adding detail). 
::Here's how major changes would read, if all of this discussion were implemented, and putting them in approxinate frequency of use:
:::Adding/removing information<br/>
:::Adding/improving reference(s)<br/>

:::Clean up/copyedit<br/>
:::Removing unsourced content<br/>

::My recommendation is to eliminate "Removing [[WP:SPAM|linkspam]] per [[WP:EL]]" altogether, as "Adding/removing external links" covers it. 

===SUMMARY===

These are the changes which seem to have emerged from the above discussion:

* Minor menu:
** Change "Spelling/grammar/punctuation correction" to "Spelling/grammar/punctuation/typographical error"

* Major menu:
** Move the line "Adding/removing wikilinks" up so it is third.
** Combine "Cleanup" and "Copyedit (major)" (two lines) into "Cleanup/copyedit" (one line), and make it fourth.
** Delete the item "Removing [[WP:SPAM|linkspam]] per [[WP:EL]]".
** Result is that 9-item menu has 7 items.

== Padding? ==

{{edit interface-protected|answered=yes}}
Could some padding (like 6px) please be added to the bottom of the dropdowns when editing via the wikitext editor (not the new wikitext editor/VE) so that theres some space between the dropdowns and the checkboxes? I'd have a diff to show, but I'm not really fimilar with OOUI's JS, but it seems like it should be something that could be simply added. --'''[[User:TerraCodes|<span style="color:#7d77d1;">Terra</span>]]'''&nbsp;<sup><small>([[User talk:TerraCodes|talk]])</small></sup> 09:41, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
:{{not done}} as to the immediate edit request, lacking "specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it". Certainly can be discussed further here and once an edit is ready it can be reviewed and made.

== Proposal: add user-defined Common edit summaries ==

{{courtesy link|WP:VPW#Proposal: add user-defined Common edit summaries to Preferences}}

A user at [[WP:Village pump (WMF)]] responded to a proposal there to add user-defined Common edit summaries to Preferences, by indicating that implementation of such an idea might be better located in this gadget. In brief, the original, Preferences-based idea was this:
: {{talk quote|I'd like to propose an enhancement to Preferences to add a feature enabling a user to enter a list of their own commonly used edit summary phrases, and then present them in the "Common edit summaries" dropdown that appears in Preview mode below the Edit summary input field.}}
Perhaps, as [[User:SD0001|SD0001]] said, this might work better here.
The original discussion is at [[WP:VPW#Proposal: add user-defined Common edit summaries to Preferences]]. Thanks, [[User:Mathglot|Mathglot]] ([[User talk:Mathglot|talk]]) 01:41, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
