User:Snowolf/JS toolbox

The JS toolbox is a javascript tool to help with handling vandals and new users alike. It is borrowed from Kbh3rd's code on the English Wikipedia and adapted (badly because I'm not a javascript guy) for usage here. All credit for the good stuff goes to him, all credit for the screw-ups goes to me.

Important notice edit

This is very much a work in progress, and could suddenly change. The conversion for Wikivoyage use is a pre-alpha if you will. So, use at your own risk and do double check things.

Welcome (1) edit

Hello, {{subst:PAGENAME}}! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

To help get you started contributing, we've created a tips for new contributors page, full of helpful links about policies and guidelines and style, as well as some important information on copyleft and basic stuff like how to edit a page. Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. If you are familiar with Wikipedia, take a look over some of the differences here.

Vandalism (1) edit

  Hello, I'm Prahlad balaji. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Foo because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Also note that we have a page full of tips for new contributors for you to look at and that any question can be asked on the Travellers' pub. Thanks!

Vandalism (2) edit

  Hi, I'm Prahlad balaji. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Foo because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. However if indeed I was correct, please desist from further nonconstructive contributions or you may be blocked from editing. Thanks!

Tests (1) edit

  Hello, I'm [[User:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}]]. An edit that you recently made to Foo that seemed to be a test has recently been removed. If you want more practice editing, the Graffiti wall is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|my talk page]]. Thank you.

Tests (2) edit

  Hello, I'm [[User:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}]]. Please stop making test edits to Wikivoyage, as you did on Foo. It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikivoyage policy, can lead to a loss of editing privileges. If you would like to experiment again, please use the Graffiti wall. Thanks!

Blanking (1) edit

  Hello, I'm [[User:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}]]. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Foo without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikivoyage with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry: I restored the removed content. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|my talk page]]. Thanks!

Blanking (2) edit

Thanks!
