AutoTranslate Creation Wizard[edit]
- Userscript to easily create commons:Help:Autotranslate based page translations
Userscript to easily add and remove categories with a GUI interface[edit]
- Add / Remove categories for any page without having to edit the page itself
- Replacement for the ageing HotCat tool
Integrate CodeMirror editor into MediaWiki[edit]
- Currently no good coding editor for writing scripts on the wiki itself. Integrating CodeMIrror or ACE would be nice
- Fixing bugs in Extension:CodeEditor and make it independent from the WikiEditor advanced editing toolbar (some users shut if off; as a coder you usually don't need it), add a JS validator (CAVE: Licensing issues [JSON license] with JSHint and JSLint)
More links to other places with requests[edit]
Gadget improvements[edit]
- Debug and resurrect w:User:Pyrospirit/metadata/assesslinks.js, which has been dead for a couple of years - w:User:Pyrospirit/metadata still works, so the underlying system must still be functional but something's broken in the link generator...
Gadget Porting[edit]
Add list of gadgets to port to which wiki!
