A userscript that shortens window tab titles with pseudonamespaces; for example, navigating to WP:GO will show the page title as "WP:Goings-on" instead of "Wikipedia:Goings-on", which makes more of the page name visible when many tabs are open.

Installation instructions

[edit]

Hint: It's much easier if you get ScriptInstaller, then navigate to User:Enterprisey/short-tab-titles.js and click "Install" at the top.

However, here's the manual method:

  1. Place {{subst:iusc|User:Enterprisey/short-tab-titles.js}} on Special:MyPage/common.js or a skin-specific page, like Special:MyPage/vector.js.
  2. Clear your cache and enjoy!

Usage

[edit]

The script will automatically shorten the tab titles of pages in the User, User talk, Wikipedia, and Wikipedia talk namespaces.
