CharInsert is an extension that creates JavaScript links that when clicked, insert predefined text into the text box.
These links are usually used in MediaWiki:Edittools system message (for an example, see Wikipedia:MediaWiki:Edittools).

[edit] Syntax
Use <charinsert> tags with a space-separated list of characters or tags for which you wish to allow insertion.
You can use + sign inside a tag to define a place to:
- insert selected text or
- place cursor if no text was selected.
You have to enclose templates and spaces inside <nowiki>:
<charinsert><nowiki>== + ==</nowiki> <nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki></charinsert>
[edit] Usage and sample output
<charinsert>Á á Ć ć É é Í í Ĺ ĺ Ń ń Ó ó Ŕ ŕ Ś ś Ú ú Ý ý Ź ź</charinsert>
→
Á á Ć ć É é Í í Ĺ ĺ Ń ń Ó ó Ŕ ŕ Ś ś Ú ú Ý ý Ź ź
Note: Clicking the links will have no effect since there is no text box.
[edit] Notes
- Generated JavaScript links also work in other areas around edit window, e.g. in MediaWiki:Copyrightwarning or MediaWiki:Newarticletext, on the page preloaded with Inputbox, and even from the text preview.
- They can also be used in MediaWiki:Uploadtext to insert image description templates.
- Generated JavaScript links use
insertTags()from wikibits.js. - Unlike toolbar buttons on top, this extension doesn't provide a way to specify inserted "sample text".
[edit] Installation
- Download the latest snapshot and extract it to your extensions directory.
- Put the following line near the end of your LocalSettings.php file:
require_once("$IP/extensions/CharInsert/CharInsert.php");
