User:GhostInTheMachine/GraphicReplyLink
{{../t/script}}
Purpose
The Reply tool was enabled by default for everybody on Monday, 7 March 2022. See Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Offering_the_Reply_Tool_as_an_opt-out_feature.
This script replaces the reply link (currently the dull text — {{code|[ Reply ]}} ) with a better-looking graphic – the Speech balloon emoji — 💬.
Use
The script does not change any actions – just the text displayed for the reply link.
Prerequisites
The script probably only works on Vector. I have not tried it on other skins or on Evil Vector.
Installing
Add the following line to your common.js file.
{{tlg|subst=yes|Lusc|User:GhostInTheMachine/GraphicReplyLink.js}}
Add the following line for elsewhere
mw.loader.load( '/w/index.php?title=User:GhostInTheMachine/GraphicReplyLink.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript' ); // Backlink: User:GhostInTheMachine/GraphicReplyLink.js
Notes
The code for this script was copied from {{slink|WP:Talk_pages_project|Changing_the_reply_label}}.
Alternatives
Just add the three lines of code directly in the common.js
