Your warning script

For some reason I'm not able to use your warning script that has all the new warnings. It doesn't even come up in Firefox, and in Internet Explorer 7, it shows up, but clicking it adds nothing to the page. Can you please check my monobook? Thanks! --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 21:22, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

first off all, you have not included morebits.js, second, as of yet, the warn need addlimenu, see WP:TWINKLE for what to include. Also, most things replaces VoiceOfAll's collection. →AzaToth 21:29, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I love your new tool! Every single warning needed is there! And it even specifies the article! However, I still can't get the warnings to work on Mozilla. They still don't show up. However, it's now working on Internet Explorer. Also, is there a way to not specify the article in the warnings? I tried leaving it blank, but when I previewed it, it showed some [ (<-- I forget what that's callled) and colons. Also, how come when you hit the rollback button, it goes to the rollback screen and one of the processes is opening the user's talk page, though it does nothing to it? --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 01:07, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The reason for opening the user talk page, is for warning the user. →AzaToth 01:42, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't warn the user though. When you start the rollback script, one of the things it does is say "opening user talk page" though it does nothing. --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 02:12, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you have popup blocker enabled. and not allowing popups from wikipedia. →AzaToth 02:13, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That's not the problem. I just checked. And how come it says opening user talk page like I said above? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by TeckWiz (talk • contribs) 02:17, 25 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]
That's strange, you are usre you don't have the window already opened in the background? →AzaToth 14:18, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently it does open in the background, but only the first one I click (so if I'm doing recent changes and click on a few diffs, and revert 2 right after each other, only editor of the first one will popup. And is this meant for Firefox?, because I still can't get the warnings to work on Firefox. They don't show up on someone's talk page, however, it works in Internet Explorer
I'm using firefox. The window will always popup in the same window, unless the window is closed, a new nindow will emerge. →AzaToth 21:01, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I don't really care about that. I'm just still wondering why the warnings aren't being displayed to me as I'm editing a user talk page, yet I can see them in Internet Explorer. --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 22:39, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Aha, ok. do you get any warnings in the error console? →AzaToth 22:56, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted

Hi, Just to let you know, I reverted your edit on WP:UW about the bullet points, not through anything malicious though. The guideline itself hasn't change, just that it's not done automatically by the templates. It was a core part of WP:UWLS before we merged it with WP:UW and I'm sure someone would get up in arms if we removed it straight off. I'm not bothered either way, but I would suggest creating a discussion about it on WP:UW as to whether it was relevant anymore, seeing the opposition to it's automatic inclusion. Cheers Khukri (talk . contribs) 14:37, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Signature

I hope you don't mind but are instead honored by the fact that I am now using your signature! →EdGl 18:54, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User page vandalism

Oh, I just noticed that you reverted vandalism to my user page. Thanks! —Wknight94 (talk) 22:24, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An Barnstar

The da Vinci Barnstar
For the creation of the twinklespeedy script, which far surpasses everything I've seen to date, here, have dis barnstar. ツ Миша13 23:49, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for WP:TWINKLE

Just like to say that twinkle is bloody FAST...... when I refreshed my monobook in Firefox right after changing to twinkle, I was very surprised that it loaded in almost no time at all! Again, thanks. Flyingtoaster1337 09:34, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. You should link to your marvellous piece of work from your user page instead of forcing people to dig for the link in article histories or watchlists... :) Flyingtoaster1337 09:36, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

One question: When I edit a user talk page, I see a [1] tab next to the watch tab. When I click on it, nothing happens. Is there something wrong with my monobook.js? I'm using Firefox 2.0.0 with the only plugin installed being one that highlights the active form control. Flyingtoaster1337 12:14, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'll see about a link. About the [1], it should be a meny to the good faith warnings, twinklewarn consist of 4 + 1 such menus. at the moment it requires addlimenu script, I have though of replacing it. →AzaToth 15:52, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have that [1] thing also, and it's the only thing I have on firefox (I still can't see the warnings when editing a user talk page!) BTW, they just made two new sets of templates. Are these automatically added, or will you have to do it?--TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 20:38, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aha! I've found the CSS that's needed to make the [1] do something. :-) It didn't work because the Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts/Add LI menu script needs modifications to monobook.css as well. The required chunk of CSS is on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts/Add LI menu. Flyingtoaster1337 23:26, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Go flying toaster! You fixed my problem! I can now use the warnings in Mozilla. However, when I hover over the level four warnings, instead of the list popping up like on the rest, it flickers on and off at a very fast speed and the warnings are unclickable. --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 00:14, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thats a common problem with addlimenu, if the window is too small, it might flicker, I have been thinking of replacing that code with something more elaborate. the only solution now is to resize the window to make it bigger. →AzaToth 00:15, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
My window is fully sized. And I didn't even know the CSD button showed the explanation of the letter+number next to it. It's great! --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 00:21, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
the speedy thingi works like this, if you are an ordinary user, you'll request speedy deletion, if you are an admin, it will delete it, with the criteria in the deletion summary, see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/delete&page=User_talk:Misza13/Sandbox →AzaToth 00:23, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As I was looking at Misza's, I saw something I commonly see. "(content was: 'yoyoyoyoyo' (and the only contributor was 'Misza13'))". Is that automatically entered by the MediaWiki software? ANd like I said before, if the window can't be made larger, what can I do? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by TeckWiz (talk • contribs) 00:27, 30 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]
Dunno, I have also had that problem, if the window is too small, the problem I think is that the menu isn't abolute, but only relative, and thus interfere with the layout. →AzaToth 00:33, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
And as I asked before: I see that the new warning templates created today have already been added. Is it added automatically because it's on the warnings page or do you need to add it? --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 00:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I need to add them manually. →AzaToth 00:42, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I guess the level four not working is ok, because it only doesn't work when I use it in the normal browser. When I click the rollback button and it opens the new window, the new window doesn't have a few things, so it allows the level 4 to show. I didn't even know it automatically remembered the page it rolled back so you don't have to type it in manually! I'm discovering more amazing things about this script every second! --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 01:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've a suggestion for extra functionality: Can twinkle be made to include the wikilinked page name in the edit summary when warning vandals? It'd be nice because (for example) I can see whether a previously-created spam/nonsense page has been re-created by looking at the edut summary. Flyingtoaster1337 15:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Added. →AzaToth 17:17, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Lovely! Thank you again. Flyingtoaster1337 17:32, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm: It's not adding it to my summary. Also, on the level four menu, when I go to use a level four warning, I can only use the first 3 warnings. When I try to go to any warning below them, they just disappear and start flashing to the right again, making them unusable. --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 20:45, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Try changing to the css I added to WP:TWINKLE →AzaToth 21:21, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
For some reason, I can't use th import script on the CSS. I must manually copy it. Though that happened, it fixed my problem, made the tabs for all things (your tool and not) look cooler, and now allow me to use the level 4 warnings in my regular browser (previously level 4 would only work in the one that popped up). Now I only have one minor problem left:If I open up 2 diffs, and revert both, both user talk pages won't open. The first one will open, but then by clicking the second one, the second one opens in the same popup window, and you must hit back to get to the first one, where if you warn the first one, you will loose the history of the window and will not be able to go forward again. Is there a way to make it open in a different window or tab? --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 21:35, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

have added this now: 

var twinklefluffForceOpenUserTalkPageInNewTab = false;
var twinklefluffForceOpenUserTalkPageInNewWindow = false;

→AzaToth 21:58, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm no coding genius, but shouldn't it be =true? I'm guessing this because it's still doing the same thing. --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 22:35, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, you should use one of them in your monobook.js and set it to true. →AzaToth 22:39, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have entered
var twinklefluffForceOpenUserTalkPageInNewTab = true;

into my monobook right after all the import scripts for twinkle and it doesn't seem to be working. (I have cached by browser so that's not the problem) --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 22:57, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Try to add var twinklefluffForceOpenUserTalkPageInNewTab = true; now. →AzaToth 23:28, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay here's the strange thing: I do this, and then every time it tries to work FireFox blocks the popup of the user talk, though Wikipedia is on my safe list. Then, when I completely turn the blocker off, it still says "FireFox has blocked this website from opening...." in the ribbon. --TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 01:57, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LGBT Barnstar ribbon.

Hey, Azatoth, I saw the great work you did on the other barnstar ribbons, and would like to ask if you would mind creating one for The LGBT Barnstar? We'd be grateful. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 16:13, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done: →AzaToth 16:23, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks very much! Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 08:22, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar

The da Vinci Barnstar
I, TeckWiz, award AzaToth a barnstar for creating the most amazing script ever!. It includes every warning known to man and allows you to specify the article parameter on it. It also includes every speedy reason known to man (it even lists the reasons next to the codes you can't remember, like G4!) Thanks for this amazing scipt!--TeckWizTalk Contribs@ 00:25, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

you need a wheelbarrow for all those barnstars...

to carry all your barnstars for twinklefluff... here's a wheelbarrow. -- frymaster 17:59, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Twinklefluff

Is there supposed to be a rollback function? John Reaves (talk) 23:43, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How do you mean? →AzaToth 00:16, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
There isn't one (at least when looking at a user's contributions). I was wondering if there was supposed to be one and if, maybe, it wasn't working. John Reaves (talk) 00:59, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Will add revert functionallity to user contrib page, havn't just got to it yet →AzaToth 01:05, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Okay thanks. Another question, did VoiceofAll's script have the "view user's groups" function (indicated by a '$' tab), or was that a separate script that I accidentally deleted? And do you intend to add that feature as well? John Reaves (talk) 01:19, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
One more, why does the user warning function add the warning as a subsection (or ===Warning===) instead of a normal section? John Reaves (talk) 01:25, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Have added the lniks to contrib pages now, thou only for "normal" reverts. →AzaToth 02:12, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your help on WP:UW

The Working Man's Barnstar
Yet an other barnstar, this time to thank you for all your contributions to WP:UW. Keep up the good work! (And I am definitely going to check these scripts of yours, they seem impressive!) -- lucasbfr talk 12:02, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

twinklewarn.js addition

I didn't want to just edit on you, but I think the [4] tab also needs {{returnvandal-n}}. However, that template has a slightly different format, when you {{subst}} it, your signature is within the template already. I only glanced at the JavaScript, is there a way to handle that easily? It's one I use more than I wish I had... — RevRagnarok Talk Contrib 14:12, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have asked on the Template:Returnvandal-n(edit talk links history) talk page why the sigs are there. — RevRagnarok Talk Contrib 15:28, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have only used the uw- prefixed templates. returnvandal looks like a single level template, and those are not yet done, but when they are, I will add them to twinklewarn. →AzaToth 16:19, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good; I had said [4] just because of that... Thanks for the cool toy(s)! — RevRagnarok Talk Contrib 16:27, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wind power

I apologize if I did not revert to the correct page, however the Wind Power page had been vandalized and I attempted to revert to the previous version. Thank you for your concern on this subject. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 18.19.1.36 (talk) 15:37, 31 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]
