User:Meteor sandwich yum/Tidy citations
{{See also|User:Meteor sandwich yum/Tidy citations/Test page|l1=its test page}}
I wanted more options than User:Waldyrious/formatcitations.js (doc) gave, so I tweaked it to my taste.
The script's a function to format citations with regular, uniform whitespace—useful for very messy citations that need ordering. I tested it with all skins and found no errors.
The major difference is that it appears in the p-toolbar area rather than the p-cactions area.
If WP:WIKED is installed, Tidy citations will not work.
= Installation =
Add the following line of code to your javascript page (with the linkback comment to help me see how many people use this):
importScript('User:Meteor sandwich yum/Tidy citations.js'); //Linkback: User:Meteor sandwich yum/Tidy citations.js
Then bypass your cache to see the results. It should appear only after you hit "edit" on a given page.
= Optional parameters =
The value given is default, and can be changed by adding a line of code after the importScript that overrides this.
- {{para|autosummary|true}} — Generates a short automatic description. If you prefer for no edit summary to be generated/appended, set "autosummary" to false (add it after the line of code).
- {{para|showdiff|false}} — Activates the
difffunction to show changes after you use the script. - {{para|markminor|true}} – Marks the edit as minor.
