Apparently Ultraviolet doesn't give the user a prompt like Twinkle does if someone has already been reported at WP:UAA. This is an example. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 18:17, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

@Clovermoss: Now tracking this at phab:T341107. Chlod (UV • say hi!) 04:37, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

Confirmation suggestion

The suggestion is that if you click on one of the UV icons (revert/rollback diffs, not report to AIV or request protection), the script will ask you if you want to revert the edit or not. This would be useful to avoid accidental clicks (and potentially reverting a good faith edit with a misleading edit summary). 64andtim (chat) 01:15, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Feature suggestion

Here's something that has annoyed me with both RedWarn and Ultraviolet. If a user has multiple edits in a row, all of them are reverted if you revert from the latest diff. This has been a problem for me, because sometimes I only want to revert back to one revision- revert just the diff I am on, because the preceding ones were constructive. But when I click 'revert', all the edits made in a row by that user get reverted- including the constructive ones that I didn't want to revert! Can you enable in preferences an option to ask if the user wants to revert all revisions by this user or just the revision they are viewing? It would reduce awkward accidents. Thanks, Edward-Woodrow :) _[talk] 13:33, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Edward-Woodrow, if you're viewing a diff, to restore a revision without removing all edits by the user click the "Restore this revision" button, usually shown above the edit on the left hand side. Once you've entered a reason, this will revert all edits and restore the page to whichever version you've selected. See Wikipedia:Ultraviolet/Documentation/Rollback. Hope this helps :) ✨ Ed talk! ✨ 10:45, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, I hadn't thought of doing it that way. Edward-Woodrow :) _[talk] 12:36, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Weird error message

Hello there, I suddenly started seeing the error message "Conflict: You have two versions of Ultraviolet/RedWarn installed at once! To prevent issues, please edit your common.js or skin.js files to ensure that you only use one version of the script." in the top right of the page. I don't use skin.js and my common.js only references one script. (Ultraviolet). Is there any reason for this error? GrishForce (talk) 13:49, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

I briefly got the same message. I only have ultraviolet installed. Edward-Woodrow :) _[talk] 13:48, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
