Adds WP:BEFORE Google links, Earwig copyvio check, Wikipedia duplicate article check, and other useful New Page Patrol (NPP) links to the left menu. See screenshot.

Mouse wheel clicking

Pro tip: On desktop, while new page reviewing an article, hover over each link and click it with your mouse wheel. This will open it in its own browser tab, without your current tab losing focus. You can quickly open all the links this way, helping you do the required new page patrol checks quickly.

Design

Other scripts exist that add links in various places. However, I wanted to make sure these common NPP links were 1) not buried in a dropdown menu, 2) not buried in a modal, and 3) not placed too prominently (the topbar or a tab). The left menu, towards the top, seems like a great place for them.

Installation

Go install User:Enterprisey/script-installer, then come back to this page and click the giant blue "Install" button in the infobox on the right.

Or install it manually by adding the below code to your Special:MyPage/common.js file.
