Can we clarify the benefits/disadvantages of using greasemonkey instead of a monobook script?

  • GM doesn't follow you around on different computers
  • GM can access more on your local computer than a site script, right?
  • GM doesn't load down the wikipedia servers by loading the script? — Omegatron 16:02, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Roll Back[edit]

Their is a script to add a role back function to history pages, however It makes the edit as minor (I don't consider Role back) bit it does automatically start you edit summary with the standard sayings plus you can modify it to say rv vandalism or whatever you want. If you can't find the script on the database i can look for it and include a link. Drop a note on my talk page. I did not create this script though. And i do not Endorse non admins having role back access. I will abide a simple revert when it is not vandalism but a good faith edit, and i would never use a script to make a questionable revert.--E-Bod 06:17, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OpenOffice.org Calc to MediaWiki[edit]

Is there any way to convert OpenOffice.org Calc spreadsheets into MediaWiki format? Most of the tools I've seen on Wikipedia are for OpenOffice.org Writer. Allen (talk) 01:54, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Date last checked?[edit]

How should we tell if a script still works? I wouldn't mind checking / installing one if it is many years old. But one cant see how long ago the entry was added or checked. I wonder, would it be okay to add last updated dates? Ok lets try.... see what happens :D 84.106.26.81 (talk) 15:22, 2 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
