Manual:Custom edit buttons

You can add custom edit buttons to the edit window easily with JavaScript.

JavaScript code needed
To add custom edit buttons, edit either User:Your username/skinname.js or MediaWiki:Common.js on your wiki. If you edit the former, the buttons will only show up for yourself and if the latter, they will show to all wiki users.

imageFile is the full URL to the edit button image. Please do not hotlink images from Wikimedia Commons or Wikipedia! Upload them to your web host instead. . See next section if you want to use a script for downloading images from english wikipedia tagOpen is simply the opening tag, e.g..

sampleText is the sample text that will appear between the opening and closing tags. The editor should replace this sample text with his or her own text.
