Hisgot sa MediaWiki:Common.js

Give search results even when page doesn't exist usba

 
Screenshot of the Earth test search, with this script adding links to Wikidata, Reasonator, Commons, and Wikipedia.

Hello, I propose to enable the tool created by Magnus Manske (creator of MediaWiki) to provide results from other languages and Commons (via Wikidata) when a page doesn't exist here: links are added to Special:Search and noarticletext. This helps to encourage translation and to make readers use your wiki more, because they can be sure to find something even if it's not local (rather than searching directly on the biggest wiki). The Italian and Polish Wikipedias, among others already enabled it by default.
Examples: [1] [2] [3]. More information: Magnus blog.
How to: just add the following line at the end of Common.js.

// Results from Wikidata
// [[File:Wdsearch_script_screenshot.png]]
if ( mw.config.get( 'wgCanonicalSpecialPageName' ) === 'Search' ||  ( mw.config.get( 'wgArticleId' ) === 0 && mw.config.get( 'wgCanonicalSpecialPageName' ) === false ) ) {
	importScriptURI("//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Wdsearch.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript");
}

Bug fixes and updates usba

Hi!

Could you replace the current code of MediaWiki:Common.js by the one I saved in the test page? Here is the diff of the changes I made. I fixed some syntax errors and updated or removed some obsolete code.

There is still room for improvements, but this should be enough for now... Helder.wiki (talk) 17:53, 29 Enero 2014 (UTC)Reply

Announced JavaScript change for badges implementation usba

Hi! I want to let you know that in near future badges will be deployed on Wikidata and the Wikipedias. They help us with displaying the good and featured article icons next to the sitelinks and will replace the javascript hack which is used at the moment together with the Link GA and Link FA templates. To avoid an overlap where the current system and the new feature conflict, I will add a minor fix to your Common.js which adds the class names to the interwiki links. This is part of my task as a global edit interface editor for the Wikidata team. Thanks, Bene* (talk) 18:45, 11 Agosto 2014 (UTC)Reply
