TheTechie's User Tools (or TUT/TTUT) is a user script to make certain tasks while using Wikipedia easier. It is currently in an early beta. It is written in JavaScript and requires no advanced permissions to use. The user script aims to group useful features not currently available on Wikipedia in one user script that only requires a single click/copy-paste to install.

Add this text to your common.js file: importScript("User:TheTechie/tut.js"). Or if you have the setting on which lets you install scripts by

simply clicking install on the appropriate JS file, you can install it here.

How to contribute

[edit]

Code changes

[edit]

Potential contributors are welcome to discuss potential code changes that could be included on the script's talk page. You must be very specific about proposed changes. If you would like to make a code change, show a diff of the changes. An example is below:

console.log("Foo")
+
console.log("Hello")

This was produced using the following wikimarkup: {{textdiff|console.log("Foo")|console.log("Hello")}}. Note: Do not copy and paste the code, as it is surrounded in nowiki tags and may not correctly transclude. Erroneous/malicious code requests will be ignored.

Feature requests or bug reports

[edit]

For a feature request or to report a bug, leave a message on this page's talk page. Please don't leave feature requests on translators' talk pages; they simply translate the code from upstream. As with code changes, you must be very specific about proposed changes.
