Advanced Edit-Box[edit]

IzGUI (page in German) by de:PeerBr is an editor for wikipedia written in JavaScript, similar to the edit-box and toolbar provided by the MediaWiki software. It features buttons for inserting templates, date-formatting, etc. Also, it allows to select categories from a hierarchy. This tool currently works with Internet Explorer, but not with Firefox. Firefox users are directed to Wikipedia.Mozdev.org. 'Note: this tool is currently designed with the German Wikipedia. It needs to be adjusted for working with other Wikipedias.

Wikifikator[edit]

Викификатор ([Vee-kee-fee-KUH-tor]) is a JavaScript tool currently used in the Russian Wikipedia. It is a gadget enabled by default for all editors and appears as a button in the toolbar above the editing box. The script applies certain transformations (mainly regarding typographics) to text highlighted in the editbox, if any; otherwise to the whole article. It is very convenient and does a great job improving the look of the Russian Wikipedia's articles.

The thing is “open”, but can be modified only by our sysops, since it sits in the source of ru:MediaWiki:Gadget-wikificator.js. Note that the Russian typographical conventions are quite different to the Anglo-American ones. But is very easy to adapt it; if you know JavaScript, of course.

A detailed description of the script (pun not intended) is at ru:Википедия:Викификатор and is in Russian.
