WordCount is a continuation of GoldenRing's User:GoldenRing/wordcount.js, with some minor tweaks and fixes.
Instead of a direct insert into the p-cactions portlet links, it will use the built-in mw.util.addPortletLink function, fixing the issue where the portlet link no longer appears. In addition, the script will try its best to match any Unicode letter (including letters and characters from other scripts) instead of just Latin alphabet characters (with no accents). Because of this, ことば, 言語, 언어, and بطة are all counted as words now. Despite this, words still need to be separated by whitespace in order to be counted as a word (so 僕の犬は本当にかわいいですようね～ would be considered one word). Such functionality is only because of newer browser technologies, and the script will automatically fall back to counting plain old Latin letters if the features aren't available (e.g. on very old Internet Explorer versions).
This script will not consider text hidden by a strikethrough in the total letter count. It will also automatically enable on Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case.
Installation
[edit]To install the script, add this to your common.js file.
mw.loader.load( '/w/index.php?title=User:Chlod/Scripts/WordCount.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript' ); // Backlink: [[User:Chlod/Scripts/WordCount.js]]
