[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:Template:Mwarn]]
A tag has been placed on :Template:Mwarn requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
better to leave a warning template
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

Kind Query
Hi Grace. It's Mohammed Sayanvala here. I was wondering if you could please give me an explanation as to why Wikipedia will not remove the pictures portraying prophet Muhammed? Thank you so much.

[[User:Gracenotes/rollback.js|rollback.js]]
Can you please configure the script to add the "sum" link next to every rollback link rather than just on the diff pages? -- IRP ☎ 01:33, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
:Done. I've added the "sum" links onto history and contributions pages as well. If you want to disable the script on any one of those pages, just a line of code after the import statement:
//depending on what you put in the "rollbackLinksDisable" list
rollbackLinksDisable = [ 'diff', 'history', 'user' ]
//only disable one
rollbackLinksDisable = [ 'user' ]
//don't disable any: this is the default setting, no need to write it out
rollbackLinksDisable = []
:I've also changed the script to use the browser's built-in method of finding rollback links, if such a method is available (otherwise defaulting to the normal implementation). If any bugs were introduced, please let me know about them! GracenotesT § 02:40, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
your script :/
I luffs j00 lots, but your Gracenotes/rollback.js script caused the error rbnode is null, which had the side effect of disabling my entire monobook except on diff pages, and I had to remove it :/ // 08:24, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Spam in [[:Importance]]
leftHello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on :Importance, by {{#ifeq:{{{nom}}}|1|{{{nominator}}} (talk · contribs),}} another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because :Importance is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting :Importance, please affix the template

AfD nomination of Importance
Image:Ambox warning pn.svgI have nominated Importance, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Importance. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. dougweller (talk) 19:34, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
An article you created maybe deleted soon: Tools which can help you
The article you created, Importance maybe deleted from Wikipedia.
There is an ongoing debate about whether your article should be deleted here:
:* Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Importance.
The faster your respond, the better chance the article you created can be saved. This is because deletion debates only stay open for a few days, and the first comments are usually the most important.
There are several tools and other editors who can help you keep the page from being deleted forever:
- You can list the page up for deletion on Article Rescue Squadron. If you need help listing your page, add a comment on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Article_Rescue_Squadron&action=edit§ion=new Article Rescue Squadron talk page].
- You can request a mentor to help explain to you all of the complex rules that editors use to get a page deleted, here: Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User. But don't wait for a mentor to respond on the deletion page.
- When try to delete a page, veteran editors love to use a lot of rule acronyms. Don't let these acronyms intimidate you.
Here is a list of your own acronyms you can use yourself: WP:Deletion debate acronyms which may support the page you created being kept.
Acronyms in deletion debates are sometimes incorrectly used, or ignore rules or exceptions. - You can merge the article into a larger or better established article on the same topic.
If your page is deleted, you still have many options available. Good luck! travb (talk) 22:08, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

[[User:Gracenotes/rollback.js|rollback.js]]
There should be "sum" links in Special:RecentChanges now that rollback links are enabled there. Also, the default text for the summary field should be "
:Okay, I've added RC support! Unfortunately, the default rollback edit summary is only available after you click OK: it is generated by the system. Anything generated by the script would be susceptible to race conditions (errors caused by bad timing), and require a few API calls. To make a long story short, it is possible to replace the default summary, but not append to it. I think there's a bug request for customizable summaries, like submitting an edit summary with $1 and having MediaWiki replace it with the correct variables server-side. Until then, this feature can't easily exist. However, I've added an option for a default value, if it helps. For anything more complicated, try using more complex anti-vandalism scripts. GracenotesT § 15:57, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
::If I manually paste in "
Oh, so it was in fact added as a feature! Lots of things change when you're not in the loop :) To enable this, just add:
rollbackSummaryDefault = "Reverted edits by $2 (talk) to last version by $1";
After the script inclusion. Then it will be the default summary. GracenotesT § 16:30, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
:Where am I supposed to add it? -- IRP ☎ 16:40, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

:::Thanks for the help. -- IRP ☎ 16:58, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
I forgot something. I forgot to request that it be enabled on Special:Watchlist. -- IRP ☎ 17:15, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Also, I think it would be better if the "rollbackSummaryDefault" was enabled by default (without the extra code in the monobook.js file) and should have an option to disable it just like the "rollbackLinksDisable" option. -- IRP ☎ 17:21, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
:Note: I have fused the script inclusion and the extra code. Now instead of doing that, you can just add:

A problem with 'User:Gracenotes/amelvand.js' and 'User:Gracenotes/wpPicmark.js'
Hi, when I have this enabled in my monobook.js (as importScript('User:Gracenotes/amelvand.js');), when I load up a Wikipedia page, I get an error:
: An error has occurred in the script on this page
: Line: 771
: Char 25
: Error: Expected ';'
: Code: 0
: URL:
Also, in wpPicmark (in monobook as importScript('User:Gracenotes/wpPicmark.js');), I get two different errors:
When I first go to a File: page, I get:
: Message: '0.lastChild' is null or not an object
: Line: 131
: Char: 5
: Code: 0
: URI:
And then when I choose a template from the drop-down list, I get two messages:
: Message: '0.lastChild' is null or not an object
: Line: 131
: Char: 5
: Code: 0
: URI:
: Message: 'document.forms.templateSelect.imagetemp' is null or not an object
: Line: 139
: Char: 3
: Code: 0
: URI:
I get no problems when I'm using your rollback.js though!

Invitation to events in June and July: bot, script, template, and Gadget makers wanted
I invite you to the yearly Berlin hackathon, 1-3 June. [https://wmberlin.eventbrite.com/ Registration is now open]. If you need financial assistance or help with visa or hotel, then please register by May 1st and mention it in [https://wmberlin.eventbrite.com/ the registration form].
This is the premier event for the MediaWiki and Wikimedia technical community. We'll be hacking, designing, teaching, and socialising, primarily talking about ResourceLoader and Gadgets (extending functionality with JavaScript), the switch to Lua for templates, [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata Wikidata], and Wikimedia Labs.
We want to bring 100-150 people together, including lots of people who have not attended such events before. User scripts, gadgets, API use, Toolserver, Wikimedia Labs, mobile, structured data, templates -- if you are into any of these things, we want you to come!
I also thought you might want to know about other upcoming events where you can learn more about MediaWiki customization and development, how to best use the web API for bots, and various upcoming features and changes. We'd love to have power users, bot maintainers and writers, and template makers at these events so we can all learn from each other and chat about what needs doing.
Check out the the developers' days preceding Wikimania in July in Washington, DC and our other events.
Best wishes!
