Code that you insert on this page could contain malicious content capable of compromising your account. If you import a script from another page with "importScript", "mw.loader.load", "iusc", or "lusc", take note that this causes you to dynamically load a remote script, which could be changed by others. Editors are responsible for all edits and actions they perform, including by scripts. User scripts are not centrally supported and may malfunction or become inoperable due to software changes. A guide to help you find broken scripts is available. If you are unsure whether code you are adding to this page is safe, you can ask at the appropriate village pump.

(Script is operational - needs testing on many pages)
ViewAsOutline-Category.js
What it does:
This script removes the bullets and then inserts wikicode formatting
(asterisks and double square brackets) for the list items on
Category pages, and the h3 headings, so that the links can be easily copied and
pasted into list and outline pages being edited.
Brief comments are provided within the source code below. For extensive explanatory
notes on what the source code does and how it works, see the Script's workshop on
the talk page.

// ============== Set up ==============
// Start off with a bodyguard function to reserve the aliases mw and $
( function ( mw, $ ) {
// we can now rely on mw and $ within the safety of our “bodyguard” function, to mean
// "mediawiki" and "jQuery", respectively
// ============== ready() event listener/handler ==============
// below is jQuery short-hand for $(document).ready(function() { ... });
// it makes the rest of the script wait until the page's DOM is loaded and ready
$(function() {
// ============== activation filters ==============
// Only activate on Vector skin
if ( mw.config.get( 'skin' ) === 'vector' ) {
// Run this script only if "Category" is in the page title
if (document.title.indexOf("Category") != -1) {
// End of set up

// Variable declarations, etc., go here
