addPortletLink
If addPortletLink is going to be deprecated, I really hope that an equivalent function will be provided to replace it. Adding links to navigation menus is an extremely common task in user scripts, and I really don't want to see us going back to the bad old days when every script writer would roll their own, often half-assed implementation of it. --Ilmari Karonen 22:15, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
 * +1. I don't really understand why we are deprecating the wiki-specific functions of wikibits. I could understand re-implementing things like addPortletLink, jsMsg in terms of jquery where appropriate, but the functions are useful and should stay. It doesn't make sense (imho) to just totally ditch all pre-existing wikibits js. Bawolff 01:25, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
