== Scripts borrowed and stolen ==

I use various user scripts written by other people.
See the notes in the page covering [[../common|my common.js]]

== Loading user scripts ==

{{Y}} Template {{tl|Lusc}} = {{tl|Load user script}}
* This is the current way to load a user script which uses the newer mw.loader.load() function
* [[MW:ResourceLoader/Migration_guide_(users)#Legacy_removals|Migration guide re Iusc vs. Lusc]]
* [[MW:ResourceLoader/Core modules]]
* [https://doc.wikimedia.org/mediawiki-core/master/js/#!/api/mw.loader mw.loader] mw.loader
** [https://doc.wikimedia.org/mediawiki-core/master/js/#!/api/mw.loader-method-using mw.loader-method-using] load dependencies
Also {{Y}} {{tl|Js}} — uses the full URL, so it can load scripts from another wiki

== Installing user scripts ==

{{N}} Template {{tl|Iusc}} = {{tl|Install user script}}
* This was the old way to import a user script which uses the importScript() function
* Do '''NOT''' use this — the importScript() function will probably be deleted one day
* The function was altered in August 2022 and is {{red|no longer safe}}

{| class="wikitable"
|+ Timeline for importScript function
|-
| February 2010||  [[MW:MediaWiki_1.16|MediaWiki 1.16]] || added importScript as part of the mediawiki.util module
|-
| November 2015|| [[MW:MediaWiki_1.26|MediaWiki 1.26]] || unconditional preload of mediawiki.util disabled by default
|-
| June 2016 || [[MW:MediaWiki_1.27|MediaWiki 1.27]] || preload of mediawiki.util module no longer available — scripts that use the mediawiki.util module must express a dependency on it
|-
| July 2017|| [[MW:MediaWiki_1.29|MediaWiki 1.29]] || the importScript() function is [[MW:ResourceLoader/Migration_guide_(users)#Legacy_removals|deprecated]]
|-
| August 2022 || [[MW:MediaWiki 1.39/wmf.26#Core_changes|MediaWiki 1.39/wmf.26]] ? || the importScript() function was rewritten and is now not safe in many situations
|-
| Unknown || Unknown || the importScript function is deleted. Global chaos erupts
|}

== JavaScript misc ==

* [https://api.jquery.com/ jQuery API] documentation
* [[MW:Manual:Interface/JavaScript#mw.config|JavaScript mw.config]] — direct access to config variables currently works but is strongly discouraged
* [[MW:ResourceLoader/Core_modules#mediaWiki.config|loading config variables]] — instead, load config variables via mw.config.get( 'wgUserEditCount')
* [[User:SD0001/Making user scripts load faster]] — Enable caching for resource loads
* [[Wikipedia:Syntax highlighting]]

== Gadgets ==

* [[MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]] &rArr; [[Special:Gadgets]] {{--}} list of special gadgets users can enable
