To be or not to be?

Doesn't Userscript deserve its own page? Userscript is/can/should be the generic term, instead of "Greasemonkey Script". Such script functionality is now broader than Greasemonkey, http://userscripts.org/ is the largest repository of scripts, and the term is even used on this site on List of augmented browsing software.

I agree. Userscripts are in widespread use, and "userscript" is a common term amongst computer users, including Firefox users (via Greasemonkey), WikiMedia users (MediaWiki supports userscripts), etc. Writing userscripts is one of the main uses of JavaScript. Not having an article on this would be an unfortunate oversight. The Transhumanist 02:19, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There's other sites too...

Are there any policies on this site which prevent listing "Sleazy Fork" as one of the many userscript sites around? Would there be enough to make a page listing them off or should a table be simply added to the page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Turijet (talk • contribs) 18:57, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:EL is what we would have to follow, and as it's not an official site and it's not an official site and pretty much a fan site. My interpretation may be wrong. Feel free to check it over and see if there's some category you think it fits under. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:06, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Warnings about primary sources

I am not sure about these, they seem necessary, the reason is that it is a simple statement of fact, there is no analysis undertaken, does that make sense? Micsthepick (talk) 10:46, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I just read further about this: "A primary source may be used on Wikipedia only to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge", pretty sure that is the case here, so I will go ahead and remove these warnings Micsthepick (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 10:55, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

to be clear, I was actually only thinking of the warnings in the last two places, I have left the others there Micsthepick (talk) 10:59, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
