Latest comment: 4 months ago3 comments3 people in discussion

Is there any process or for taking over as maintainer for an abandoned script? – Closed Limelike Curves (talk) 22:48, 17 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

No, but anyone can fork them. Nardog (talk) 07:47, 18 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

This IPA reading script doesn't work anymore. The icon displays but no voice emerges. Kailash29792 (talk) 03:54, 6 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Help test script to read articles aloud

Latest comment: 7 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I was wondering if someone could help me test User:Phlsph7/WikiNarrator, a script to read articles aloud. I had to implement various workarounds to get it to function and I'm curious to learn whether they work for others as well or just for my setup. You would have to install the script, visit an article, and check whether it manages to read a few paragraphs from start to end without breaking off in the middle.

WAG estimate needed for attribution edit summary fill-in script

Latest comment: 5 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

No script needed just yet, but an estimate of difficulty of development of a user script designed to fill in the edit summary field based on 2 or 3 user inputs as described at this discussion would be much appreciated. The description of the desired script behavior is collapsed under a khaki horizontal bar labeled, Possible UX for easier creation of attribution edit summary. Your feedback/estimate would be appreciated. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 01:32, 13 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

30–120 minutes. Looks pretty easy using JQuery and basic HTML. The section you linked does a good job of laying out exactly what the programmer needs to do. I might code this up real quick if I get time. Feel free to post these at WP:US/R in the future. –Novem Linguae (talk) 06:45, 13 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Outdated archival scripts

Latest comment: 27 days ago4 comments3 people in discussion

Section Wikipedia:One click archiving § No longer recommended discourages the usage of several outdated archival user scripts. Should these scripts be removed from Wikipedia:User scripts/List? —⁠andrybak (talk) 16:18, 16 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Go for it. Nardog (talk) 03:12, 17 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

I agree. Remove all of them FaviFake (talk) 17:10, 20 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Done in Special:Diff/1323591433. —⁠andrybak (talk) 18:07, 22 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
