විකිපීඩියා:Gadget
A Wikipedia gadget is a JavaScript and/or a CSS snippet that can be enabled simply by checking an option in your Wikipedia preferences. The gadgets functionality is provided by the MediaWiki extension Extension:Gadgets.
General criteria for Gadgets
Gadgets should generally pass the following conditions:
- Gadgets must work if just included with no further configuration. They can be configurable via monobook.js, but must work unconfigured.
- Gadgets must be compatible with all major browsers, i.e. they must not terminate with errors.
- Gadgets should be functional in most major browsers (cross-browser compatibility). Exceptions must be clearly stated.
- Duplication of gadgets should only be made if it's reasonable.
- Collections of scripts should be applied as own entities. (No collection of scripts dumped as a gadget, unless the collection is specially defined as an own entity.)
- Gadgets requiring permissions must be marked, and must fail gracefully if the permissions aren't present.
- Gadgets only working in some skins must be marked as such, if that data is available.
Proposals
Proposals: Discuss the addition of user scripts as gadgets.
Evaluation: Evaluate existing WikiProject User scripts scripts as potential gadgets.
Installation
Gadgets can be installed after discussion at Wikipedia:Gadget/proposals by administrators in the following way:
- Add the header below and the script code to MediaWiki:Gadget-scriptname.js
- Optionally, add the header below and CSS code to MediaWiki:Gadget-scriptname.css
- Add a script description to MediaWiki:Gadget-scriptname. Please link to the script home and/or help page and state browser requirements if needed.
- Add to MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition under the appropriate heading
* scriptname|scriptname.js[|scriptname.css|otherscript.js|...]
- Update the table of installed gadgets below
The gadget should now appear on Special:Gadgets.
Comments
Comments or warnings can be added to the gadget description templates in two ways:
- noinclude tag (visible on description page with links):
<noinclude> comment </noinclude> - HTML comments (visible in source text only):
<!-- comment -->
Comments added in this way will be automatically discarded during the page creation process.
Header
The following header is to be added to the gadget files:
