Scripts borrowed and stolen

I use various user scripts written by other people. See the notes in the page covering my common.js

Loading user scripts

[edit]

Green tickY Template {{Lusc}} = {{Load user script}}

Also Green tickY {{Js}} — uses the full URL, so it can load scripts from another wiki

Installing user scripts

[edit]

Red XN Template {{Iusc}} = {{Install user script}}

  • This was the old way to import a user script which uses the importScript() function
  • Do NOT use this — the importScript() function will probably be deleted one day
  • The function was altered in August 2022 and is no longer safe
Timeline for importScript function
February 2010 MediaWiki 1.16 added importScript as part of the mediawiki.util module
November 2015 MediaWiki 1.26 unconditional preload of mediawiki.util disabled by default
June 2016 MediaWiki 1.27 preload of mediawiki.util module no longer available — scripts that use the mediawiki.util module must express a dependency on it
July 2017 MediaWiki 1.29 the importScript() function is deprecated
August 2022 MediaWiki 1.39/wmf.26 ? the importScript() function was rewritten and is now not safe in many situations
Unknown Unknown the importScript function is deleted. Global chaos erupts
