Extension:EditSimilar/de

EditSimilar is an extension that suggests similar articles that need attention upon save. It was originally written by Bartek Łapiński and Łukasz Garczewski for Fandom.

It finds and suggests another article that may need attention or improvement when a user saves an edit. It is designed to help users decide what to do next, and boost the number of edits on a wiki.

The suggestions are only displayed when saving in the main (article) namespace, and will not show up on talk pages, project pages and other namespaces.

By default, the message is set to appear after every five qualifying article edits. The frequency of messages can be adjusted by a global variable (see the Configuration section below).
