Non-working scripts

[edit]

Administrative

[edit]
I added the fixed version to the list, and made a documentation page for it in your userspace. Good idea creating a list for non-working scripts, this will be useful. Equazcion (talk) 03:29, 25 Mar 2012 (UTC)

Too many categories?

[edit]

That's a whole lot of categories right now. Do you think some of them could be merged? For example, "Deletion and other processes" and "Tagging" with "Administrative", possibly as subcategories? Rename as "Maintenance"? Some quick ideas...

I think simplifying the category list is absolutely a good idea. Much of what's here now was blindly copied over from the old list, though I did tweak a little.
  • "Site appearance" would be for things that tweak the default skin and font aesthetics etc, while "user page" has practical tools.
  • "Administrative" was meant for tools that only work with admin rights, I think. If there are a lot of those types I'd leave those in their own category, since they won't wrok for most users.
Everything else you suggested seems good. Ideally I'd like to simplify even further, even regarding sub-categories ideally, if that's possible. We'll see as the list grows. Equazcion (talk) 23:04, 25 Mar 2012 (UTC)
I just did some of this. Equazcion (talk) 23:44, 25 Mar 2012 (UTC)

Layout

[edit]

Any ideas for the eventual layout? I was thinking individual sortable wikitables for each section this time, to avoid the convoluted coding required to put multiple section headers within a single table (as in the old list). Equazcion (talk) 23:47, 25 Mar 2012 (UTC)
