GitLab and GitHub

I just found a way to sync stuff between GitLab and GitHub. I am not sure if you are aware, but maybe you can use that to create a "read-only" or "synced" repository on GitHub for us to work with. But then, it can kind of be a little overboard as you then have to track pull requests all over the place. A a s i m 09:50, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome Aasim, we don't have any plans to make an official GitHub mirror at the moment, especially considering that it could create an issue if people make pull requests there and things. It's easier for us to manage at a single location. Ed talk! 13:48, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Ed6767 that is understood. I know Wikimedia Foundation has a read-only mirror of MediaWiki. You could maybe get a bot to auto-close pull requests made at GitHub. Or have the pull requests mirror on GitLab and autoclose or something like that. So that this happens when you try to make a pull request. A a s i m 18:38, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

RC patrol

Hi Ed. I can now say I have used RedWarn a few more times. Anyway, today, I just made a (kind of, but not really) more robust RC patrol method that is kind of like Huggle, but a lot simpler lol. I have already worked on an RC patrol widget and a RC notification tool, but now we have RC patrol. I have always wanted to make a more robust tool kind of like wikiHow's, and I kind of did. If you would like to try it, feel free to do so. :) A a s i m 03:23, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome Aasim, looks cool! Reminds me a lot of the first tool I made, but with mine I added like a counter in the bottom left saying "moving on in 10... 9..." and if you didn't press shift to add extra time the redirect would complete as usual. I think that's better than the sudden redirects. Ed talk! 13:47, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

About the removed changes on OFDM page

Hi Ed6767, I noticed that you deleted all my additions in OFDM page. Could you please explain the reasons why you refused all resources? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amany N Mohamed (talk • contribs) 08:58, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Amany N Mohamed, can you please let me know when and where this occurred? I'm afraid I don't recall. Ed talk! 15:54, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And now why you removed my edit in OFDM history although I used a reliable resource from FCC? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amany N Mohamed (talk • contribs) 16:52, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Amany N Mohamed, that wasn't done by me, but was explained on your talk page. Ed talk! 17:08, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, could you please help me to publish that edits i followed your instructions and used a strong and reliable resource. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amany N Mohamed (talk • contribs) 20:58, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Got my recent pull request?

See [1]. Thanks. A a s i m 15:49, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome Aasim, thanks for the ping, it's been merged. Ed talk! 15:54, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And [2] A a s i m 16:59, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think this may be helpful if you are developing RedWarn mobile/desktop

https://labs.ft.com/2012/08/basic-offline-html5-web-app/

Why? Because it allows you to completely bypass the App Store and Play Store and immediately get a working webapp that can work offline. I think RedWarn would be great as a webapp.

I am not sure if you already know this, so I am sharing just in case. A a s i m 07:31, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Awesome Aasim, thanks for your suggestion - we're actually already working on a PWA for the new RedWarn. Thanks again :) Ed talk! 11:54, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

RedWarn and WebKit

What makes RedWarn not work properly on iOS mobile? A a s i m 00:20, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome Aasim, Safari/WebKit isn't supported and doesn't support many of the APIs needed for RedWarn at the moment. Ed talk! 08:28, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I feel like nothing works on Safari/WebKit. One of the scripts that I wrote that makes new sections shows two boxes. And I am getting "404" errors in the dev console with regards to redwarn. Moral of the story: don't use Safari. Use a Chromium-based browser. A a s i m 18:38, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome Aasim, y'know how they advertise all the Safari is x times faster than Chrome! Yeah, they don't get that through enhancements, they just cut things out and call it a day. Can't wait for it to have full support really because it's a quite annoying edge case. Ed talk! 19:30, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ed6767 maybe you can have it detect compatible browsers and if RedWarn is not compatible, then it pops up with a notification that says "Sorry, but your browser or device is not compatible with RedWarn." And the reason why RedWarn does not work on iPhone is because all browsers on iPhone have to use Apple's WebKit engine, which breaks everything. A a s i m 20:27, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

New pull request

[3] A a s i m 05:00, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks :) FYI, we're all automatically pinged on our private discord channels when a new PR or other event occurs, such as the RedWarn pages being edited, so there's no need to leave a talk page message. Ed talk! 08:31, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Can you also rebuild the RedWarn script now that my proposed changes are in? A a s i m 20:09, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Done Ed talk! 21:30, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

New RC Patrol in all its glory

See WP:RCPS. (Yes, I created that shortcut because I anticipate that the tool may blow up like Huggle.) It is still a work in progress, but for now it works on the English Wikipedia. My hope is to get cross wiki support and a configuration file. One thing I am kind of ticked about is that I cannot get the OOUI icons to work properly. It always shows a blank icon. I think I should file a request a Phabricator to fix it. A a s i m 22:33, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome Aasim, looking good! Great improvement. Two things: 1. Have you thought about using the PHP development like what RedWarn does? It'll make development so much easier for you, and can update the script once everything is tested and working. You don't actually need a build script if you're only using one file, let me know if you'd like help setting that up. 2. RE the OOUI icons, have you made sure to import the OOUI libary (i.e through mw.using)? See mw:OOUI/Using_OOUI_in_MediaWiki#Gadgets. Again, great work! Ed talk! 22:44, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Ed. Have you checked out some of my other scripts? One of them, WP:XFDVOTE, has kind of blown up a bit. A a s i m 22:50, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome Aasim, installed, seems quite useful! If you need any help feel free do email or direct message me on Discord, I'm very happy to help :) Ed talk! 22:53, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, it seems like a bug with OOUI. Only two icons of the expected several are loading. I opened a bug report at phab:T262779. Hopefully they can figure out whether it is a problem with my code or a problem with the documentation or what. The fact that only one or two icons are loading out of the several that I selected clearly indicates a bug. A a s i m 03:33, 14 September 2020 (UTC) Nah I had to include some other ooui library. Thanks for the help, though! A a s i m 05:07, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And... I broke up the script for readability. Just to confirm, your GitHub username is Ed6767? You can kind of help with the build.php file :) [4] A a s i m 19:04, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ummm, maybe not?

-- Cabayi (talk) 21:04, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Cabayi, whoops! Didn't know it had increased, and as there'd been little activity I thought it okay to close. Feel free to revert. Ed talk! 21:12, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well...

Someone may have already had a similar idea in mind... but... the issue is that the diffs running down the left side of SWViewer is too distracting and requires OAuth. My idea is to have a cross-wiki solution in mind that does not involve having to view every single edit on every single wiki. It just works. And my solution is fast with low risk of accidential rollbacks. A a s i m 22:45, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest, I am also amazed by how quickly my RC patrol script developed into something really usable in a matter of a few days. Maybe you want to try it out? WP:RCPS Next thing you know I have Pending Changes Patrol fully ready for English Wikipedia. A a s i m 02:08, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome Aasim, yeah, it gets like that. The first version of RedWarn was working within six days, and it grew from there really, so best wishes! Ed talk! 02:23, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Most recent feedback on RedWarn

I think there should either be icons in Contributions instead of confusing three-letter words, and maybe labels that are always visible under the icons that we can always know what they mean. I have used Huggle, and I bet you have used Huggle before too, and you know that the icons are easy to understand for the most part. But having icon labels provide a level of redundancy.

(Also, I do not think a user should have the ability to hide the "more options" icon lol. I just did that.) A a s i m 19:05, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Quick note on User talk:Sandbox for user warnings

Thanks for your edits to User talk:Sandbox for user warnings.

Well... um... you probably need more work on the content of your invitation message, as the entire ToC is filled with the RedWarn page... Aasim (talk) 16:11, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Cobalt pen. While I can't remember the specifics of why a tagged it (as it was a good few months ago now), at the moment I feel the predominant use of lists and lack of inline citations in many places, along with other concern would warrant this tag.

RedWarn Preferences

Hello Ed6767. I know that I could have cleared my RedWarn things on the preferences page, but I intentionally did it through that page because it was buggy. Thanks anyway! Helpthepeople9 (talk) 00:08, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Helpthepeople9, can you let me know what the issue is you're facing? I'm currently working under the hood in RedWarn now, and I might be able to fix your issue. Ed talk! 00:10, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

RedWarn had been making Wikipedia browsing really slow, but deleting that from the RedWarn config has fixed it. I think it was because I installed a pack that slowed down Wikipedia for me. Helpthepeople9 (talk) 00:15, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom 2020 Elections voter message

Hello! Voting in the 2020 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 7 December 2020. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2020 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 03:01, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Offtopic comment

Regarding your offtopic comment, canvassing isn't solely defined by the tone of what you say but also by: where, to whom, and whether anyone of a particular sort other than the ones you said it to knows that you said it. It doesn't look good when you provide a message to users of your proposed gadget in apparently some conspicuous place known only to users of that proposed gadget. This is why people have accused you have canvassing. This note is just explanatory — I don't personally care too much for/against you on the point. --Izno (talk) 17:29, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

user:Snagemit back again?

Ed6767 I find myself in the difficult territory of seeing the same odd but strangely distinctive editing behaviour with user:Freezingwedge as with the now-banned user:Snagemit. The type of articles is broadly the same. The speed and volume of this editor is highly distinctive - moving from one article to the next at speed - so surely having no time to consult sources. There are also pointless edits that do nothing to improve an article. Do you think there is enough for an investigation? - I fear not, hence the question.ThoughtIdRetired (talk) 09:57, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Scripts++ Newsletter – Issue 19

News and updates associated with user scripts from the past month (December 2020).

Hello everyone and welcome to the 19th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter:

Scripts Submit your new/improved script here

Enterprisey's script-installer, a gadget that makes it easier to install scripts, is this month's featured script

Enterprisey's copy-section-link adds popups to section headers which has an appropriate wikilink and external link to the section.

DannyS712's FindBlacklistEntry can be used to figure out which line(s) in either the local or global spamblacklist prevent a particular url from being added.

Nardog's CodeEditorAssist allows customizing the code editor, including changing the color theme and enabling live autocompletion.

Cobaltcigs's IllWill allows searches wikidata.org for foreign-language sitelinks, to populate {{ill}} and replace plain red links.

Twinkle has made a number of improvements, most notably full support for expiring watchlist items.

Evad37's Signpost Publishing Script is now at version 2.4.2, with changes including a fix for calculating the size of pages with files.

Evad37's MoveToDraft is now at version 2.5.1, with changes including:

checks for move conflicts and better options if move fails
the addition of {{Drafts moved from mainspace}} after moves
updating the default move log and notification texts to be more in line with WP:DRAFTIFY

Enterprisey's cv-revdel now handles failures more cleanly, including reporting failures caused by the spam blacklist.

Bradv's Notepad.js script has been updated with new styles and a new launch button.

A beta version of XFDcloser is available for testing, and brings a new user interface for dialogs and some preferences for customization.

Open tasks

Voting in the m:Community Wishlist Survey 2021 is ongoing until December 21, 2020. There are 15 proposals in the "bots and gadgets" category that may be of interest.

Pending requests

A script to help list discussions at WP:ANRFC (request)
A script to allow undoing edits despite conflicting intermediary edits (request)
...and many more, all available at Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests

Miscellaneous

The Watchlist Expiry feature worked on by the Community Tech team has been enabled on Wikipedia. For scripts that include watching or unwatching pages, developers may want to update their code to take advantage of the new functionality. See the documentation on mediawiki.org.
As noted in the prior issue, Enterprisey's links-in-logs script has now been implemented as part of MediaWiki core. By my count, this is his third script that was replaced by implementing the code in MediaWiki core or an extension, along with link-section-edits and abusefilter-hide-search. Additionally, his reply-link script is being converted in part to mw:Extension:DiscussionTools. Are there any other scripts that might be worth integrating directly in MediaWiki? Thoughts would be welcome at Wikipedia talk:Scripts++.
