This page is an attempt to determine which existing user scripts could be added to the 'Gadgets' section of Special:Preferences as a gadget. You can help by writing comments explaining why a script should or should not be included.
The actual discussion to include a script as a gadget takes place at Wikipedia:Gadget/proposals.
Notes:
- Scripts that add, modify or otherwise use portlet links (via
addPortletLink()
or otherwise) will generally only work on the MonoBook-like skins (MonoBook, Simple, Chick, MySkin) and usually on Modern skin. - Scripts that use "bodyContent" or other MonoBook-specific element IDs will also generally only work on the MonoBook-like skins; older skins use "content" while Modern skin uses "mw_content".
Scripts
Script | Gadgetability |
---|---|
Navigating to Edit page | |
Add edit section 0 | probably redundant to the next script, which is designed as a more portable version
adds or modifies portlet links |
Simplified edit section 0 | no obvious problems (ais523: I'm happy for this to be moved to MediaWiki space, but remember to leave a script redirect in place (this can be done with {{subst:js}})!) There is some problem with the profusion of edit-top scripts around, though; clearly they shouldn't all be used.

wikEd | wikEd is already a gadget on the German, French, Hungarian, and Occitan Wikipedia as well as the Polish Wiktionary. It works currently only for Firefox and related browsers. I suggest to add it as a gadget on the English Wikipedia. Сасусlе 04:26, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Discussions | |
!Vote symbols | Is it a good or bad idea to include this? It's a compromise that adds symbols to your own view rather than everyone's which has been useful in de-escalating the argument in the past, but it may encourage a 'voting mentality'. |
