A new version of "Replace all" js script for OCR post elaboration
Dear Zolky, I'm an Italian wikisource user, I saw that your js scripts are used into it.wikisource. Unluckily, I can't write js, while I can write python scripts. One from my scripts is very useful as "post-OCR manipulation", t.i: it replaces lots of typical "scannos", with a series of string search-and-replace-all, always the same series. So, I imagine that it would great to have a button to launch the series from edit box.
What I'll need, is a js engine, called by a simple script containing the couples search-and-replace strings, so that it can be mounted into personal monobook and customized adding a sequence of strings to search and replace. Do you think it would be interesting? Possible?
and many other, sometimes very general, sometimes specific for a specific OCR result for a whole book (t.i. hundred of pages, usually). This means that there's no need to have a box or an user interface: dealing with a book, an advanced user could edit and personalize directly, as needed, the list of strings to replace editing his own monobook.js, IMHO.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 16:30, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I have a better idea......you look up vandalism. When you start removing sourced material without a vaild reason, that is vandalism. It could easily be moved to another section if you don't feel is belongs in the leade, but there is no reason to keep it out of the article. The NY Times is a reliable source and their critique is perfectly valid to include in the bio. Niteshift36 (talk) 05:19, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If you want the leade to be more neutral sounding, then you can move the quote. But the quote is from a reliable third party. It is neutral. You are confusing complimentary with POV. If a third party says something complimentary (or critical), that doesn't immediately exclude it from use. There is no requirement that every comment be neutral. The requirement is that their POV be neutral. A third party critic can say something nice (or critical) and it can be included. The only issue at that point it WP:UNDUE weight. Again, there is no reason to delete it. If you think it belongs in another section, and have a good rationale for that, then move it. But deleting it not appropriate.

First, can you please try to use standard indenting for talk pages, so that I don't have to fix your comments? Thanks.
Second, just because something is from a reliable source doesn't mean that it should be in the article. If you trawl a reliable source long enough, especially if it's a newspaper, you can find a quote that says practically anything. This particular quote isn't even from a proper review of her album. It's simply not notable enough to be included in the article, let alone as the only critic quote. Zocky | picture popups05:36, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Look, you can't even be bothered to follow a simple request to type the appropriate number of colons instead of an asterisk, so why do you expect people to bother responding to your rehashing of arguments that you've already stated? Zocky | picture popups05:52, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
For some reason, picture popups isn't working now. I did re-edit my monobook.js after the fail to try to fix it, but nope.
I have reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled XP as part of a virus-removal, but I don't think that is relevant.

It's fixed now. I assume that it was fixed by the latest change I made: selecting monobook rather vector (which was somehow checked) as my preferences/appearance/skin option. ( Martin | talk • contribs20:11, 6 March 2010 (UTC))[reply]
When we activate "Enable enhanced editing toolbar" from vector skin in the preferences, the User:Zocky/SearchBox.js doesn't insert the buttons for search, because the toolbar has different "id=toolbar"...
If you have the time, coul you try to adapt the code for better compatibility with vector?
I'd like to second and encourage the Vector-version request: the regex search-and-replace has been a very valuable tool and is one of the biggest hindrances of the Vector skin for me. Perhaps the WP:RefToolbar 2.0's implementation is of help here? Cheers, Quibik (talk) 14:48, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hi!! Could you update the script as here? This makes it more compatible with the new enhanced toolbar (the only thing missing when using the new toolbar is the accesskey for the search button , but clicking in the buttons works as before). Helder (talk) 18:32, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry to interrupt. Popups doesn't seem to work for me (all of a sudden). 1.Of course, I am logged in. 2. Would a new browser version break it? 3. I am still listed as a user, and clicking on the xref to me goes to my page "User:MartinGugino/monobook.js" (??) Magically, its fixed. ( Martin | talk • contribs 05:42, 3 April 2011 (UTC))
The magic explained: when I click on the "boxes" in the lower right, I don't get the popup effect. When I click on the picture, I do. Who knew. ( Martin | talk • contribs19:53, 5 April 2011 (UTC))[reply]
Special Linking
Zocky, I'm trying to get a better handle on both images and tables. The table on the upper right of my user page has images with the link= parameter set for each of the images in the cells, but the page won't open with either a left click or a context menu click (the menu doesn't even come up). Do you suppose PicturePopups may be disturbing the intended linking to the articles? Any suggestions for me? kcylsnavS{screechharrass} 02:16, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

re [1] You completely missed the point. I was quoting a sentence from the lead in response to the previous editor's summary claiming that the Polish lyrics had no relevance. "Its melody is based on Mazurek Dąbrowskiego, which has been also the anthem of Poland since 1926...". That's relevance. -- œ™03:57, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
A related song with different lyrics is the anthem of Poland. That doesn't mean that the lyrics of this song in Polish are relevant. And the article has a talk page. Zocky | picture popups19:23, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
