== Eswatini vs. Swaziland sortkeys ==

Hello!

The country of Swaziland changed its name to [[Eswatini]] in 2018. Nearly all Wikipedia articles and categories that needed renaming have been moved to the new name, see e.g. {{Section link|Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2018 November 5|Swaziland}}.

However, I noticed that this renaming may have left sortkeys that need correction. E.g. I found {{diff2|959553124|Category:Wealth in Eswatini}} in {{Cl|Wealth by country}} and {{Cl|Wealth in Africa}} with sortkey <code>Swaziland</code>, which left Eswatini in sequence between Sri Lanka and Sweden. I corrected them manually to <code>Eswatini</code>.

Is there a way to find all such sortkeys and have them corrected by a bot? That's how I would do it:
* Look for every article or category that has <code>Eswatini</code> as part of its name
* Look for category sortkey (found by <code><nowiki>[[Category:<whatever>|<sortkey>]]</nowiki></code>, sometimes small-case <code>category</code>) or defaultsort (<code><nowiki>{{DEFAULTSORT:<sortkey>}}</nowiki></code>):
** If exactly <code>Swaziland</code> or a prefix (such as <code>Sw</code> or <code>Swaz</code>, except just the letter <code>S</code>), replace by <code>Eswatini</code> exactly
** If a longer sortkey includes <code>Swaziland</code>, not necessarily in the beginning (such as <code>Swaziland, Economy of</code> or <code>Economy of Swaziland</code>)
** For sortkeys that are exactly the letter <code>S</code> (and we know that such sortkeys are found quite often), create a list of such occurrences for later manual treatment.

I think it's pretty safe to replace all the cases I have listed because we limit ourselves to titles that have been renamed to a name explicitly including ''Eswatini'', so we would not affect content such as [[:Category:Treaties extended to Swaziland (protectorate)]], for which Eswatini is anachronical, or ''[[Times of Swaziland]]'', which is a proper noun. I think other namespaces (such as Template:) may be better left out for manual action.

Is there any bot master able to fulfill this request? [[User:Place Clichy|Place Clichy]] ([[User talk:Place Clichy|talk]]) 10:32, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

== Introduction helper ==

Following up on discussion with {{u|Sdkb}} for a sandbox option.  Currently they are using a link such as [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Sample_page/{{Random number|100000000}}&veaction=edit&preload=Help:Introduction/main_sandbox&summary=Creating%20sandbox this one].  I'm looking at ditching the random number part - but would want the button to have a link with a script (from ?withJS=) that will:
#Wait for the page to load in editing mode
#Clear the entire editing box
#Populate the editing box with some text (a template subst)
#Add an edit summary
#Possibly submit the edit as well; understand that the script would need to be in mediawiki ns.  Example of another button that include a script: [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/request]].

Is there a user script that uses AJAX to refresh a history/contributions/log page/watchlist/etc at regular intervals?

== Request for "Gender display" gadget ==

At CaptainEek's RfA there are quite some grievances about misidentifying a user's gender as male. There has been issues of this all over the place, (perhaps) the most recent was less than a week ago ([[Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive1035#Misgendering_by_Flyer22_Frozen]]). I believe it would be a good idea to show a small "he/she/they" text after each username.

== Section sub-headings "outdent" ==

I'd like to have a tool to help with removing levels of sub-sections. For example, to delete a second-level heading, and have all the headings underneath it be automatically promoted or "outdented" one level. All the third-level headings would become second-level, fourth become third, and so on.

(The reverse might also be helpful, though I don't have a need for it myself, but if you add a second-level heading, then selected headings below it could be automatically indented. This would be more complicated, because you'd need a mechanism to select the ones to indent. So I'm not actually requesting this part...) --[[User:IamNotU|IamNotU]] ([[User talk:IamNotU|talk]]) 21:51, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

==Show SD script ==

I would like to propose a script that would place a button on all category pages labeled Show SD. If pressed, the category page would be replaced by a single column listing that included each article's [[WP:short description|short description]], if it has one, next to the article name. 

While short descriptions are primarily intended for the mobile version of Wikipedia, having a script like this would make them valuable in the desktop version as well.     The script would be useful for editors who are maintaining short descriptions as it would allow them to easily review pages in categories to check for inconsistency, missing descriptions and possible vandalism. For general users, the script would be valuable when viewing categories whose article names tell little about content of the article. Examples include categories of industrial standards, mathematical theorems (which are typically named after mathematicians), [[:Category:Military electronics of the United States|military equipment]], and other similarly opaque categories.  

The script would only have to encapsulate article names in the {{annotated link| … }} template. I have created examples of what such a page might look like in my sandbox at:
*[[User:ArnoldReinhold/Category-IEEE standards SD test]]
*[[User:ArnoldReinhold/Category-Theorems in Number Theory SD test]]

The single index letters are easily detected and output as: * ’’’X’’’  

As a first cut, the Subcategories section would be shown unmodified, as categories themselves do not currently have useful short descriptions. An extra credit feature, perhaps for a second version, might be checking if a category name matches an article space name and if so, showing the article space short description. Another extra credit feature would be flagging short descriptions that are longer than 90 characters (the suggested maximum size), perhaps by showing the length next to the short description. Any help appreciated.--[[User:ArnoldReinhold|agr]] ([[User talk:ArnoldReinhold|talk]]) 18:41, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
:{{U|ArnoldReinhold}}, this is an interesting idea. You might want to specify whether the script should show the Wikidata short description, and under what conditions. For example, should it show only a local description if it exists, and otherwise display to the Wikidata description? Should it show both descriptions? – [[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95|talk]]) 19:17, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
::{{U|Jonesey95}} Good question. I'm inclined to stick with what the annotated link template shows, which is just the local description (bases on my experiments).  As I understand it, per [[Wikipedia:Short description#History]], the way things happened was that the Wikimedia Foundation decided to use the WikiData short descriptions in the mobile app and the Wikipedia community was concerned about content being displayed under the Wikipedia brand that was not subject to our quality checks. As a result, local short descriptions were added that are part of the normal Wikipedia edit process. So I think the conservative thing for now is to stick with the local description. I would, however, add a hatnote to category pages with Show SD enabled that reads something like: "To view and edit the short descriptions on individual articles in the desktop edition, you should enable the [[Wikipedia:Shortdesc helper|Shortdesc helper]] under Gadgets in your Wikipedia Preferences." Then complying readers who see a listed article is missing a short description can click on that article and they will see the Wikidata SD if it exists and import or edit it if they wish. I don't think creating an editing mechanism within the category page itself would be wise and the possibility of updating Wikidata to reflect local SD is way beyond my pay grade.--[[User:ArnoldReinhold|agr]] ([[User talk:ArnoldReinhold|talk]]) 19:21, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

== Reordering file upload wizard steps ==

I'm not sure if this is completely the right place, but hopefully it's at least the right group of editors. Following up from [[Wikipedia_talk:File_Upload_Wizard/Archive_7#Smoother_transition_to_Commons?|here]] and [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_184#JavaScript_help_needed_for_file_upload_wizard|here]], we'd like to redesign the [[WP:file upload wizard|file upload wizard]] so that it asks right off the bat whether you're uploading a free or non-free file, and sends you to Commons if you're uploading a free one. This would be much better than the current ordering, where the many people who are trying to upload a free file don't realize they should go to Commons until the third step, at which point they'll have to re-enter a bunch of information (and some may just give up, costing us an image we'd want). <span style="color:#AAA"><small>&#123;{u&#124;</small><span style="border-radius:9em;padding:0 5px;background:#088">[[User:Sdkb|<span style="color:#FFF">'''Sdkb'''</span>]]</span><small>}&#125;</small></span> <sup>[[User talk:Sdkb|'''talk''']]</sup> 08:29, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

== Default watchlist expiry time ==

[[m:Community Tech/Watchlist Expiry]] is now active on enwiki. Unless I'm missing something, it seems the default expiry time can't be changed from "Permanent". A user script to be able to have the default be, e.g. "1 month" without having to keep manually setting it, or having to un-watchlist and then re-watchlist with an expiry time, would be quite useful. Including when submitting a new section, the "Watch this page" seems to be "Permanent" by default.

== Script that adds templates from [[Template:Done/See also|Done/See also]] automatically ==

I wish to request a user script that either automatically adds the templates listed at [[Template:Done/See also]] to one's comments on talk pages or noticeboards, or that provides a menu with a search bar, with which to select said templates. This will save the time needed to search through all of the templates, thereby also increasing their usage. Thank you for your time.

== Automate adding 'connected contributor' and 'connected contributor (paid)' templates to article talk pages ==

During AfC reviews, most days I come across editors who have declared a connection on their user page but there's no corresponding declaration on the article talk page. In those cases I add a connected contributor or connected contributor (paid) template to the appropriate talk page. The problem is that this is time consuming, particularly to remember what each parameter is called, getting the capitalisation right, adding a wikilink to the declaration on the user's user page or in a diff, etc.

It would be great to have a script that does this for us. It could provide a drop-down of the editors from the article history, and it could identify the diff of the declaration. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Curb Safe Charmer|Curb Safe Charmer]] ([[User talk:Curb Safe Charmer#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Curb Safe Charmer|contribs]]) 14:27, 7 August 2020 (UTC)</small>

== Listings for contests ==

Kinda similar to {{u|SD0001}}'s [[User:SD0001/DYK-helper|DYK Helper]], I'm envisioning a script that you could open under the 'more' tab of an article, specify what you did (i.e. 'new article', 'destub', 'rewrite', 'source'...) and tick what contests it falls under (for instance, maybe [[WP:DESTUB50K]] and [[WP:CAN10K]]). It would make listing articles for them a lot easier, and make me far more likely to remember.

== A script for listing discussions at [[WP:ANRFC]] ==

It would be helpful to have a script that could assist with the process of listing discussion closure requests at [[WP:ANRFC]]. I envision the functionality as working something like this:
#You'd activate the tool similarly to the archiving tools by going to the "more" menu, and then select the section with the discussion.
#A dialogue box would come up, where you'd select a category to list the discussion under (administrative, deletions, RfCs, or other) and optionally specify a custom message to go with the request.
#The tool would determine the "initiated" value by the earliest timestamp in the section and then make the listing.
Hopefully the existence of such a tool might help encourage more listings, leading to more discussions coming to a resolution. <span style="color:#AAA"><small>&#123;{u&#124;</small><span style="border-radius:9em;padding:0 5px;background:#088">[[User:Sdkb|<span style="color:#FFF">'''Sdkb'''</span>]]</span><small>}&#125;</small></span> <sup>[[User talk:Sdkb|'''talk''']]</sup> 05:32, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

== User creation log, but only users with edits ==

Hello! I occasionally browse [[Special:Log/newusers]] and catch accounts that violate the username policy that haven't shown up on any edit filters or logs. Because I don't bother with accounts that haven't edited yet, I scroll through and visually look for blue "contribs" links in the sea of red. I realize this wouldn't be super widely used, but would it be hard to write a script for this page to hide (or de-emphasize) users who haven't made any edits yet? I have some coding experience in other languages but have never done anything with JavaScript; I can try to Frankenstein something from existing script functionalities (i.e., [[User:Alex 21/script-redlinks.js|detecting redlinks]], [[User:Markhurd/hidetopcontrib.js|hiding things on a page]]), but figured I would post here and see whether people think it's feasible / whether it would be a relatively trivial task for an experienced JS editor.

:The snippet <syntaxhighlight lang="javascript" inline>$('li.mw-logline-newusers:has(a.mw-usertoollinks-contribs.new)').hide();</syntaxhighlight> should be enough to handle the actual hiding, you just need to trigger it some how. I have a global script at [[:m:User:DannyS712/hide.js]] that hides a bunch of random stuff when I click on the button it adds to the menu. A simplified version of that for just this would be
<syntaxhighlight lang="javascript">
mw.loader.using( 'mediawiki.util', function () {
    $(document).ready( function () {
    	if ( mw.config.get('wgCanonicalNamespace') === 'Special' && mw.config.get('wgCanonicalSpecialPageName') === 'Log' ){
	    	mw.util.addPortletLink ( 'p-cactions', 'javascript:void(0)', 'Hide', 'ca-hideStuff', 'hide', "'");
	    	$('#ca-hideStuff').on('click', function() {
	        	$('li.mw-logline-newusers:has(a.mw-usertoollinks-contribs.new)').hide();
	    	} );
    	}
    } );
} );

:::::{{u|Headbomb}}, I added a "both" mode that will enable the script when both a CS1 and a CS2 reference are present, for enabling it for specific namespaces I think I would need to have a different config variable that would take an array or namespaces as different people might want it for different namespaces (eg the user namespace for user drafts or the template namespace) or maybe it would be better to disable it on talk pages (although pages such as this aren't technically talk pages). <span class="nowrap">– [[User:BrandonXLF|<span style="color:blue;">Brandon</span><span style="color:green;">XLF</span>]] ([[User talk:BrandonXLF|talk]])</span> 21:38, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
::::::I think a basic set of namespaces (Main+Draft) is fine of default. The toggle would take care of the other cases.

:::::::To be clear, the default behaviour would be one thing, and which namespace would be another.

{{ping|David Eppstein}} btw the 'both' version of the script works really well.

:Thanks for the re-ping; I've installed w/both option. [[Manifold]] needs more than just citation style formatting; it needs careful attention to unify the footnotes with the separate list of references and check that references implicitly called out in the article text are made explicit. <s>Also at least one of its citation templates, {{tl|springer}}, appears not to have a style option.</s> <small>Update: style option added.</small> —[[User:David Eppstein|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein|talk]]) 19:36, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

===Vcite/cite lsa update===
{{ping|BrandonXLF}} could you update the script to also recognize [[WP:CSVAN]] and [[WP:CSLSA]]? I've updated {{tl|vcite journal}}, {{tl|vcite book}}, etc... to have the class "citation journal csvan", "citation book csvan", etc...  Basically only one of class CS1/CS2/CSVAN should be on an article, and the script is useful to find mismatches. So things would look like

*{{cite journal |jstor=133235|title=History, Repetition, and Freedom in the Narratives of Nakagami Kenji|last1=Tansman|first1=Alan|journal=Journal of Japanese Studies|year=1998|volume=24|issue=2|pages=257–288|doi=10.2307/133235 |mode=cs1}} <span style="color:#BB44BB; font-weight:bold>CS1</span>
*{{cite journal |jstor=133235|title=History, Repetition, and Freedom in the Narratives of Nakagami Kenji|last1=Tansman|first1=Alan|journal=Journal of Japanese Studies|year=1998|volume=24|issue=2|pages=257–288|doi=10.2307/133235 |mode=cs2}} <span style="color:#BB4400; font-weight:bold">CS2</span>
*{{vcite journal |jstor=133235|title=History, Repetition, and Freedom in the Narratives of Nakagami Kenji|authors=Tansman A|journal=Journal of Japanese Studies|year=1998|volume=24|issue=2|pages=257–288|doi=10.2307/133235 }} <span style="color:#BB0066; font-weight:bold">CSVAN</span>
*<syntaxhighlight lang="mediawiki" inline>{{cite LSA/sandbox |jstor=133235|title=History, Repetition, and Freedom in the Narratives of Nakagami Kenji|last=Tansman|first=Alan|journal=Journal of Japanese Studies|year=1998|volume=24|issue=2|pages=257–288|doi=10.2307/133235}}</syntaxhighlight> <span style="color:#884488; font-weight:bold">CSLSA</span> 
:<small>(Note: As of writing, if you have the script installed, you'll have double CS1 and CS2, but a single CSVAN/CSLSA at the end of these citations)</small>
The default/"both" mode could be renamed "mismatch" (or the same name kept), but the functionality updated to reflect that those should be appended when any two of CS1/CS2/CSVAN/CSLSA classes are present on a single article.

== Script for admins posting [[Wikipedia:In the news/Recent deaths|"recent death" items]] to [[Template:In the news]] ==

Would like to make a request for a script to be able to do the following actions, to facilitate the ease of posting recent death items to the In the news section of the main page. 
*Add "(Posted)" on the right side of the level 4 header of the posted item at [[Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates]], and remove any notes in parentheses if they exist in that header, such as "(Ready)" or "(Attention needed)
*Add "<nowiki>Posted to RD. ~~~~</nowiki>" at the bottom of the discussion at Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates.
*Adds a link to the nominated article to the top of the bulleted list under "recentdeaths" on [[Template:In the news]] (right under the line "<nowiki><!--New items go on top, remove the last one when posting--></nowiki>"), and remove the bottom bulleted linked item
*Posts credits on the user talk page of nominators and updaters: clicking the "give credit" links on the [[Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates]] nomination box of the posted item, which generates a pre-populated template that needs to be saved onto the user talk page.

== sort see alsos ==

See also sections are often out of order and manually sorting them is tedious and error prone. A script would help. Thanks. [[User:Fgnievinski|fgnievinski]] ([[User talk:Fgnievinski|talk]]) 18:50, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

::::{{u|BrandonXLF}} Ah, OK. Thanks for looking into this. I've also tried the script at [[Ellipse]] and it seems difficult to find the see-also list among myriad of lists. Grouping lists by section might help. Or maybe offer a "ListSorter" link next to section titles, to sort only lists in a given section. But I still think the niche for such a script is really in ignoring all lists except for that in the see-also section. Thanks for your time.

== Specialised Notification ==

Well, actually, it is not a request. Is there any script, especially for mobile, that generate customised notification? For example, on 31 January, it will generate a notification saying "Today is the last day of this month!" [[User:Meghmollar2017|Meghmollar2017]] • [[User talk:Meghmollar2017|Talk]] • 15:15, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
:{{re|Meghmollar2017}} Do you want notification on a specific namespace or page? This one will show notification on article namespace on day 30 of every month. <syntaxhighlight lang=js>function test(){
if (mw.config.get('wgNamespaceNumber') === 0) {
var d=new Date();
if(d.getDate()==30)
{
mw.notify("Your customised text here.");
}
}
} test();</syntaxhighlight> Don't forgot to customise notification text. ~[[User:Yahya|<span style="font-weight: bold; background-color: #B30C17; color: #ffffff; text-shadow:1px 1px 45px green;">Yahya</span>]] ([[User Talk:Yahya|<span style="color:forestgreen">✉</span>]]) • 06:19, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

== Script that gives an option to watchlist all subpages of a page ==

The option to watchlist all subpages of a page would be helpful for pages like [[WP:RFD]]. An extension would be to watchlist all possible subpages of a page, but I don't think that would be possible. <small>—</small>&thinsp;[[User:J947|J947]] ‡ ''<sup>[[User talk:J947|message]] ⁓ [[Special:Contributions/J947|edits]]</sup>'' 00:08, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

== A userscript/project to make sure all acronyms/abbreviations have a hover tooltip. ==

I want all abbreviations on Wikipedia to have [[Template:Abbr]] applied to them, like this: {{Abbr|HTTP|Hyper Text Transfer Protocol}}, so that even if you start reading an article halfway through you would never have to spend time tracking down the meaning of an abbreviation you didn't know. 

I would like an interface where I get an article, and see a list of all abbreviations on it (which could just be all words longer than 1 letter that are in all caps, but there's edge cases like {{Abbr|DoD|Department of Defense}}). I would then choose the first abbreviation, and see every time it was used in context, along with a few clickable suggestions for what it could expand to be based on a dictionary of abbreviations (and ideally things like "Capitalized Phrases in Acronym Form (CPAF)" elsewhere in the article would also be detected, but that's a lot to ask for the initial version). The interface should make it quick to add the template to most but not all instances of the abbreviation, it can't just be an all or nothing choice because it doesn't make sense to add it immediately after its explained or when the abbreviation is a link to its article, for example. [[User:Akeosnhaoe|Akeosnhaoe]] ([[User talk:Akeosnhaoe|talk]]) 03:47, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

== split section helper ==

it'd be great if there were a script capable of:
# tagging a given section in the current article with [[template:split section]]
# creating a talk page section starting the discussion
[[WP:TW|Twinkle]] offers something similar but for [[template:merge]]. [[User:Fgnievinski|fgnievinski]] ([[User talk:Fgnievinski|talk]]) 03:02, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

== WhatLinksHere sorted ==

It would be hugely useful if WhatLinksHere could be sorted alphabetically / by namespace

Yes you can filter a list like [[Special:WhatLinksHere/WP:UPSD]]

== A user script that automatically creates [[Template:Z number doc|Z number templates]] and adds them to other templates ==

Z number templates are templates made to track the usage of substituted templates. They 'should' be present on every template listed at [[WP:MLT]], [[WP:SLT]], and [[WP:BLOCKT]]. However, they aren't. There are far too few Z number templates for the sheer number of [[WP:UW|UW]] templates. That's why I'm proposing this user script, so that these can be added with ease. Now, a possible concern is that one could just use [[WP:AWB]] for this. The thing is, this will have to be done every time a new template is created, thus a user script would be better. Thank you for your time. [[User:Opalzukor|<em style="font-family:Times">Opal&#124;zukor</em>]]<sup>([[User talk:Opalzukor|discuss]])</sup> 12:30, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

::{{u|Novem Linguae}}, Oh, that's much easier! Thanks! If I could make a suggestion...it's slightly confusing when you have "two edit" tabs on every page, so it might be better if your edit tab read "edit visually" or "edit visual." Additionally, for every section that contains the two tabs, it might be better if your tab said something like "edit visual" or "edit (v)".  Just a thought I had. :) [[User:Dr.Swag Lord, Ph.d|Dr. Swag Lord]] ([[User talk:Dr.Swag Lord, Ph.d|talk]]) 02:23, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
:::{{u|Dr.Swag Lord, Ph.d}}, just to confirm, the two links are called "edit" and "edit", not "edit" and "edit source"? Try going to Preferences -> Editing -> Editing mode -> select "Show me both editor tabs". That should change the names of one of them to "Edit source", and then the visual editor one will be called "Edit".  Good feedback though. I'll look into having my script fix "edit"/"edit" without having to go into preferences. –[[User:Novem Linguae|<span style="color:limegreen">'''Novem Linguae'''</span>]] <small>([[User talk:Novem Linguae|talk]])</small> 02:34, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
::::{{u|Novem Linguae}}, Hmm, that's strange. Before I hit the visual edit tab, one tab read "edit" and the other read "edit source."

== One-click copy page title into edit buffer ==

I'm frequently copy-pasting the page title like this: [highlight the page title at the top of the page]. cntrl-c to copy into buffer. It would save mouse movement and keyboard time if there was a button next to the page title when clicked automatically loaded the edit buffer with the page title. This sort of thing is often seen in websites where it offers a pre-made password or some other long string so you don't have to copy it manually, just hit the button.  -- [[User:GreenC|<span style="color: #006A4E;">'''Green'''</span>]][[User talk:GreenC|<span style="color: #093;">'''C'''</span>]] 03:14, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

*:I had a script for copying "Page name#Section title" written for myself, so I just repurposed it for just the page name as well: [[User:Nardog/CopySectLink.js]]. It should add "copy" after each heading. Clicking on it will copy the unencoded page name, while you can also copy the full URL if you right-click on it and select your browser's native "Copy link". It might be rough around the edges (and it doesn't work with Minerva) but it works fine for me. [[User:Nardog|Nardog]] ([[User talk:Nardog|talk]]) 13:37, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

:{{re|GreenC}} Glad you like it! If there's a delay it implies the copying process itself is stalled, since the module used to show the notification must have already been loaded by the time the script is loaded. What does the notification say, "Copied" or "Probably copied"? The copying process is sort of twofold, starting with the clipboard API that became supported by modern browsers only a couple years ago, and if it fails, it falls back on an older, less sophisticated method (hence "probably"). If the latter is used, it might lag a little. [[User:Nardog|Nardog]] ([[User talk:Nardog|talk]]) 15:40, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
::I'm seeing just "Copied" now and don't recall what it said when there was the delay, but probably not probably since it's the same browser.

== Mass rollback selected contributions ==

This is more of a nice to have than anything that will be super widely used, but I figured I might as well propose it anyway. There are currently two scripts enabling rollbackers to mass-revert edits by a given user from Special:Contributions with a summary: [[User:Writ Keeper/Scripts/massRollback.js|Writ Keeper's massRollback]] just reverts all edits, and [[User:Kangaroopower/scripts/Mass Rollback|Kangaroopower's Mass Rollback]] reverts either the last 50 or the last X edits. Both of those are very useful, but don't work in some edge cases where a large number of edits needs to be reverted, but indiscriminate reversion would be inappropriate. I'm mostly thinking of good-faith but erroneous mass-edits that are discovered after the user in question has already made further edits, which makes rolling back the last X contributions infeasible, or [[WP:BE|block-evasion reverts]] where many edits need to go, but the reversion of some of them would e.g. reinstate vandalism or remove unblock requests. What I'd be looking for is a script that allows both "indiscriminate" mass-reversion and reversion of edits selected with a tickbox (with a summary), similar to the revision deletion feature in mediawiki or [[User:Enterprisey/cv-revdel|Enterprisey's cv-revdel]]{{snd}}coupled with Navpopups, this would speed up bulk reversions significantly.

:Hi, {{u|HeartGlow30797}}! Answering here in my capacity as both CCI editor and userscript developer. "{{tq|sort through}}" here is quite difficult to interpret. You mean sort the diffs by something else than size? Or navigate through each diff sequentially? Or something else? In any case, each diff by a contributor is sorted through manually and checked by the CCI editor using a set of tools or using their set of skills. There's no way to automatically check for copyright violations, as in most cases the tools are not enough to detect copyright violations. For example: Earwig's Copyvio Tool can detect violations of live webpages, but can't detect violations from pages which are already [[HTTP 404|404]]'d from existence. Likewise, it can't handle book violations and violations from other offline sources. So there's no easy way to simply "sort through" edits, especially when some cases are complex and have large pages of thousands of edits. <span style="background:#ffff55">'''''[[User:Chlod|Chlod]]'''''</span>&nbsp;<small style="font-size:calc(1em - 2pt)">([[User talk:Chlod|say hi!]])</small> 21:45, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
