User:Redvers/Wikibar
Description
[edit]- This Wikibar is a simple HTML page with the most common templates regular Wikipedia users may need: Welcome messages, Test > Vandalism, Blanking > Vandalism, Spam > Vandalism, speedy delete templates, AfD templates and, most importantly, the two most common Barnstars for congratulating and thanking fellow Wikipedians.
Instructions
[edit]- Copy the text from this page into Textedit or Notepad and save it as "wikibar.htm" or the like. Then open that file in Firefox, bookmark it and select the option "open in sidebar". Open the bookmark when you open Wikipedia and you can copy and paste the tags you need most often into the page you're working on without hunting in Wikipedia:Templates.
Usage
[edit]- Once installed as above, you can highlight then copy and paste the most common template messages directly into articles and talk pages without searching through Templates, relying on memory or using javascript add-ons. All appropriate templates are subst: so your server footprint is always low.
License
[edit]- This Wikibar idea is cheap and nasty and basically for my own convenience. Therefore it is completely free of any copyrights whatsoever and is totally Open Source. You are encouraged to update the original, produce your own versions and generally distribute and modify as you wish. I don't care!
Further description
[edit]When editing at the Wikipedia using the only decent browser invented I keep a Sidebar open that has the main things in it that vandal hunters and general editors need to use. It's written in very very poor HTML - tables and everything - as it was done in a hurry. Nevertheless, this is version 3.0 - now including the uw series of warnings.
If you have Firefox, you can just copy the following text into Textedit or Notepad and save it as "wikibar.htm" or the like. Then open that file in Firefox, bookmark it and select the option "open in sidebar". Open the bookmark when you open Wikipedia and you can copy and paste the tags you need most often into the page you're working on without hunting in Wikipedia:Templates. I think the latest version of Internet Exploder now has sidebars or something. But if you use IE, you can work out how to make these work there for yourself <sarcasm> since you are clear such an expert.</sarcasm>
