New year, new scripts. Welcome to the 23rd issue of the Wikipedia [[Wikipedia:Scripts++|Scripts++ Newsletter]], covering around 39% of our favorite new and updated user scripts since {{#formatdate:2021-12-24|dmy}}.  That’s right, we haven’t published in two years! Can you believe it? Did you miss us?

=== [[File:Cscr-featured.svg|20px|alt=Featured script|This month's featured script]] Featured script ===
: '''''[[User:Nardog/RefRenamer|RefRenamer]]''''' by '''[[User:Nardog|Nardog]]''' is this issue's featured script. For whatever reason, [[m:Community Wishlist Survey 2019/Status report 1#Named References in VE|the foundation will only give us better reference names]] in [[WP:VE|VisualEditor]] if we [[Wish (film)|wish]] for it in [[m:Community Wishlist Survey 2024|the next survey]]. Nardog to the rescue! This script has a ton of options to satisfy almost anyone who wishes to use better refnames than [[WP:VECRUFT|":0" and ":418"]].

===[[File:Gnome-colors-view-refresh.svg|20px|alt=Updated scripts|Updated]] Updated scripts===
* [[User:Nardog|Nardog]]: [[User:Nardog/MoveHistory|MoveHistory]] can now look up the move history of any page from anywhere on the site.
* [[User:Enterprisey/diff-permalink]] now has a version that copies the Special:Diff link with square brackets.
* [[User:GhostInTheMachine/WatchlistTidy]] now moves the Active Filters panel to the right so that the Show/Hide button doesn't constantly jump.
* [[User:Alexander Davronov/HistoryHelper]] has now become stable with some bugfixes and features such as automatically highlighting potentially uncivil edit summaries and automatically pinging all the users selected.
* [[Wikipedia:AutoEd/unicodehex.js]] will no longer replace [[mw:Manual:$wgFragmentMode#Details|legacy MediaWiki dot-entities]] (dot followed by two uppercase alphanumeric characters) in article links, which caused several links to become broken.

===[[File:Ambox important.svg|20px]] Improve a script===
* Many of our favorite scripts such as [[User:Fred Gandt/userResourceManager]], [[User:Guarapiranga/search-shortcuts]] and [[User:Bradv/Scripts/Superlinks]] haven't been updated for Vector 2022. You could be the one to change that!
* [[User:Elominius/gadget/media timer]] works, but its UI looks alien. Someone could improve it...
* To a lesser extent, the same goes for [[User:PrimeHunter/Search sort.js]]. I wish someone would integrate the sorts into the sort menu instead of adding 11 portlet links.
* We want...
:* ...a mark-as-read button for [[User:Aaron Liu/Watchlyst Greybar Unsin|Watchlyst Greybar Unsin]]
:* ...a tool to automatically fix [[CAT:BROKENREF]]s, preferably a fork/addition to [[User:TheJJJunk/ARA]]
:* ...a fix/fork of [[User:DannyS712/SectionRemover.js]] to make it work

===[[File:1009Clock.jpg|20px|alt=Pending requests]] Requested scripts===
* A [[WP:3O]] requesting and responding tool, similar to [[WP:ERT|Terasil's classic edit request tool]]
* A "bytes removed"/"added" filter on the user contribs page
* A review tool for [[WP:proposed deletion]]s
* Mass patrol new pages by a user for use in [[WP:RFP/A]]
* ...and many more, all available at [[Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests]]

===[[File:Gnome-colors-list-add.svg|20px|alt=New scripts|New]] New scripts===
* [[User:Aaron Liu|Aaron Liu]]: [[User:Aaron Liu/Watchlyst Greybar Unsin|Watchlyst Greybar Unsin]] is a rewrite of Ais's Watchlist Notifier with modern APIs and several new features such as not displaying watchlist items marked as seen (hence the name), not bolding diffs of unseen watchlist elements  which doesn’t work properly anyways, displaying the rendered edit summary, proper display of log and creation actions and more links.
* [[User:Alexis Jazz|Alexis Jazz]]: [[User:Alexis Jazz/Factotum|Factotum]] is a spiritual successor to reply-link with a host of extra features like section adding, link rewriting, regular expressions and more.
* [[User:Aveaoz/AutoMobileRedirect]]: This script will automatically redirect MobileFrontend (en.m.wikipedia) to normal Wikipedia. Unlike existing scripts, this one will actually check if your browser is mobile or not through its secret agent string, so you can stay logged in on mobile! Hooray screen estate!
* [[User:Chlod|Chlod]]:
** [[User:Chlod/Scripts/Deputy|Deputy]] is a first-of-its-kind copyright cleanup toolkit. It overrides the interface for [[Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations]] for easy case processing. It also includes the functionality of the following (also new) scripts:
*** [[User:Chlod/Scripts/Deputy/AttributionNoticeTemplateEditor|Attribution Notice Template Editor]] (ANTE) graphically modifies content attribution notices. It is the successor to [[User:Chlod/Scripts/CopiedTemplateEditor]] and supports more templates than {{T|copied}} ones.
*** [[User:Chlod/Scripts/Deputy/InfringementAssistant|Infringement Assistant]] allows a user to hide sections of a page for suspected copyright violations and report the page to the appropriate [[Wikipedia:Copyright problems]] noticeboard.
* [[User:Elominius/gadget/diff arrow keys]] allows navigation between diffs with the arrow keys. It also has a version that requires holding {{key press|Ctrl}} with the arrow key.
* [[User:Enterprisey|Enterprisey]]
** [[User:Enterprisey/diff-permalink-2.js|diff-permalink-2]] allows quickly copying wikilinks to diff and permalink pages from those pages, a variation of existing script [[User:Enterprisey/diff-permalink]]
** [[User:Enterprisey/archiver|archiver]] is a fork of Σ's Archiver with several bugfixes.
** [[User:Enterprisey/parent-cats|/parent-cats]] highlights categories that are a subcategory of a category already included in a page's categories. 
* [[User:Guarapiranga/accessKeysCheatSheet]] adds an [[WP:access key|access key]] shortcut to display all shortcuts based on code provided by [[User:Nardog|Nardog]] and [[User:NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh|NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh]].
* [[User:HungKhanh0106/ProperDisplay]] loads a bunch of fonts to add correct [[Help:Multilingual support#Scripts|rendering support]]s for "esoteric" languages.
* [[User:Jeeputer/highlightPiped]] will make piped links [[Cerise (color)#Irresistible|irresistible]] (or [[Lists of colors|else]]).
* [[User:Jerome Frank Disciple/curlyfixer.js]] adds an [[WP:AutoEd]] function that straightens curly quotes per MOS. That's right! Such a module was only made in the 14th year of AutoEd's existence! [[WP:AutoEd/Customization|Configure]] away!
* Frequently link to Wikipedia on your websites yet find generating CC-BY credits to be such a hassle? Say no more! [[User:Luke10.27/attribute]] will automatically do it for ya and copy the credit to yer clipboard.
* [[User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft]], a spiritual successor (i.e. fork) to [[User:Evad37|Evad37's]] script, with a few bugs solved, and a host of extra features like check-boxes for choosing draftification reasons, multi-contributor notification, and appropriate warnings based on last edit time.
* [[User:Nardog|Nardog]]
** [[User:Nardog/CopyCodeBlock|/CopyCodeBlock]]: one of the most important operations for any scripter and script-user is to copy and paste. This script adds a copy button in the top right of every code block (not to be confused with <nowiki><code></nowiki>) that will, well, copy it to your clipboard!
** [[User:Nardog/RCMuter|/RCMuter]]: Hide specific users, perhaps [[User:MediaWiki message delivery]], from the Watchlist and Recent Changes.
** [[User:Nardog/VitalTopicon.js|/VitalTopicon]] makes you see the vital article topicon on [[WP:vital articles]].
* [[m:User:NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh/AceForLuaDebugConsole.js]] adds the [[Ace (editor)|Ace]] editor (a.k.a. the editor you see when editing JS, CSS and Lua on Wikimedia wikis) to the Lua debug console. "In my opinion, whoever designed it to be a plain <textarea> needs to seriously reconsider their decision."
* [[User:Novem Linguae|Novem Linguae]]
** [[User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/DraftCleaner.js|DraftCleaner]] fixes formatting of new articles.
** [[User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/GANReviewTool|GANReviewTool]] quickly and easily closes good article nominations.
** [[User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/ReviewStatus|ReviewStatus]] displays whether or not a mainspace page is marked as reviewed.
** [[User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/SpeciesHelper|SpeciesHelper]] tries to add the correct speciesbox, category, taxonbar, and stub template to species articles.
* [[User:Opencooper/svgReplace]] and [[:m:User:Tol/RealSVG.js|Tol's fork]] replaces all rasterized SVGs with their original SVG codes for your loading pleasures. Tell us which one is better!
* [[User:Phlsph7/HighlightUnreferencedPassages]] adds a button to highlight all unreferenced paragraphs in reds, and can even do it automatically. 
* Still hate [[WP:Vector 2022|Vector 2022]]'s floating TOC? [[User:Phlsph7/UnfoldedNumberedTOC(Vector2022)]] might make you give it a try.
* Quite a bit of pages at [[Special:WantedCategories]] either exist now or got removed. [[User:Qwerfjkl/scripts/hideUnwantedCategories]] automatically hides those.
* [[User:SuperHamster]]'s [[Wikipedia:Tools/View it!]] generates a gallery of images for a given subject on any Wikimedia project utilizing [[Structured Data on Commons]]. Images can then be added as needed.
* [[User:Terasail|Terasail]]
** [[User:Terasail/ArticleInfo|ArticleInfo]] displays page information at the top of the page, directly below the title.
** [[User:Terasail/HeaderIcons|/HeaderIcons]] takes away the Vector 2022 user dropdown and replaces it with all of the icons within, top level, right next to the Watchlist. One less click away! There's also an [[User:Terasail/HeaderTextLinks|alternate version]] that uses text links instead of icons.
* ...and any more, all available at [[WP:US/L]].

Due to budget and procrastination limitations, we've only had time to review the first ~39% of the [[Special:Diff/1061928044/1189431990|scripts since last issue]].
