I wanted to add a space in <references /> and <ref name="" /> (as proper xml markup) in MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert.js, but I'm a little confused by the tokens used there.

Wow, that is weird and confusing. For <references /> you need a ".". For <ref name="+" />, you need "_" because it's in the part after the "+" (but the space between "ref" and "name" needs a ".", because it's before the "+").

On a PC keyboard, the apostophe ' is normally on the middle row, two keys to the right of the letter L; the double quote " is either on the same key as ⇧ Shift+' (USA layout), or on the top row as ⇧ Shift+2 (British layout). The characters generated by the fourth and fifth items in the "Insert" and "Wiki markup" selections are ″ and ′ which are Unicode U+2033 "Double Prime" and U+2032 "Prime" respectively; these do not count as valid quotation marks. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:44, 4 March 2013 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-03-04T18:44:00.000Z","author":"Redrose64","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Redrose64-2013-03-04T18:44:00.000Z-Isarra-2013-03-04T04:37:00.000Z","replies":["c-Isarra-2013-03-06T02:39:00.000Z-Redrose64-2013-03-04T18:44:00.000Z"]}}-->

Yeah, keys are there, but they doesn't always work. Seems to only be a problem when I'm on windows, though, so it's not likely to come up for others (my windows configuration is a little odd).

My Windows/Firefox combination does occasionally behave strangely. My keyboard is UK layout, like this (but black, not coloured), and for no apparent reason Firefox can suddenly decide that my keyboard is the USA layout, and remaps the keys - those marked ¬"£@~# actually generate ~@#"|\ and (no kidding) it has actually flipped over to the other mapping whilst posting this. If I switch to a different application, the mapping is correct; switch back to Firefox, the mapping is wrong again. Closing and restarting Firefox always fixes this; it has sometimes fixed itself with no apparent intervention (let's see if that happens today). --Redrose64 (talk) 12:55, 6 March 2013 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-03-06T12:55:00.000Z","author":"Redrose64","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Redrose64-2013-03-06T12:55:00.000Z-Isarra-2013-03-06T02:39:00.000Z","replies":["c-This,_that_and_the_other-2013-06-06T12:31:00.000Z-Redrose64-2013-03-06T12:55:00.000Z"]}}-->

Again and again, new users get confused by the mention "Sign your posts on talk pages: ~~~~ " just below the edit box. So we get plenty of signatures in mainspace or in edit summaries. There is no need to have this displayed in mainspace. In wiki markup, this can be achieved by {{#ifeq:{{NAMESPACE}}|{{ns:0}} | | '''Sign your posts on talk pages:''' ~~\~~ }}; but I don't know if this also works for MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert.js, which replaces MediaWiki:Edittools when js is on. In addition, in the mention '''Cite your sources:''' <ref></ref>, "cite" may link to the tutorial on citing sources, I also don't know how to link in js.

Yes, I mean the toolbar which shows up by default to editors at the top of the edit window (registered or not). The toolbars that can be activated from options aren't the same (icons are not in the same order and no cite section / reftoolbar). The icon , which stands for "Signature and timestamp" likewise gives the four tildes, which isn't needed in mainspace. Okay, I'll ask at MediaWiki:Common.css then.

• kwami has requested that ⟨+⟩ be replaced with {{Angle bracket|+}} on this page in the IPA (English section) as well as the matching section on MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert.js on or about line 43 in the code. I support this change based on my understanding of what the template does.

Actually, Rose agrees with me, as they are currently out of order (degrees, seconds, minutes).

To clarify my position: I agree with Kwamikagami that ″ and ′ are in reverse order. I've not amended it because (out of the two pages to edit MediaWiki:Edittools and MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert.js), I have never edited the script itself; and I was rather hoping that either MZMcBride (who created it) or Anomie (who has made the most edits to that script in the last two years) would have offered an opinion, either on why it was done like that, or why it should remain as is.

I have no opinion on the angle brackets.

@Technical 13:: if you attempt to ping somebody but it fails because you got the casing wrong (in this case spelling Redrose64 with two capital R), amending the post won't trigger a ping. The (correct) link to the other user and your sig need to go on in the same edit.

The angle brackets now present under Math and logic are U+27E8 ⟨ MATHEMATICAL LEFT ANGLE BRACKET and U+27E9 ⟩ MATHEMATICAL RIGHT ANGLE BRACKET, so they should remain there.

I can't seem to paste in the 'normal' punctuation version of the angle brackets; they keep getting converted to the CJK related bracket upon saving/previewing, and I don't know what's causing it.

Because those brackets do not display on all browsers. We set up a template because some readers insisted on using greater-than and less-than signs, or Chinese brackets; the template uses the consensus form, and can be changed as consensus evolves. We are slowly going through WP and replacing all instances of the brackets with the template, except in mathematical formula. It's not useful to have the edit window working at crossed purposes with that consensus. Also, if we decide to format them differently, or change which brackets we use, we only have to change the template and all articles will be in sync. — kwami (talk) 06:02, 19 January 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-19T06:02:00.000Z","author":"Kwamikagami","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Kwamikagami-2014-01-19T06:02:00.000Z-Edokter-2014-01-19T03:53:00.000Z","replies":["c-Edokter-2014-01-19T12:15:00.000Z-Kwamikagami-2014-01-19T06:02:00.000Z","c-Edokter-2014-01-19T13:11:00.000Z-Kwamikagami-2014-01-19T06:02:00.000Z"],"displayName":"kwami"}}-->

My testing on XP and all 4 major browsers show that only IE has trouble displaying the angles, both using the numerical entiries and the &am;lang;/⟩ entities. Opera and Chrome show all the original assigned characters, and Firefox substitutes the deprecated x23xx characters for the mathematical x27xx ones. The template now use the named entities (with the unicode font), but the conclusion there is also that there currently is no universal solution. — Edokter (talk) — 12:15, 19 January 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-19T12:15:00.000Z","author":"Edokter","type":"comment","level":7,"id":"c-Edokter-2014-01-19T12:15:00.000Z-Kwamikagami-2014-01-19T06:02:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

For as long as I remember, the "Wiki markup" set has begun by repeating the whole of the "Insert" set apart from the boldface instructions to "Sign your posts on talk pages:" and "Cite your sources:".

I would prefer not to separate, since I use both sets: I leave the dropdown on "Wiki markup" pretty much all the time, since I know that I can get to both sets without fiddling with menus.

We might need a fallback option (of some sort) for users without javascript?

One possibility: Add a link to same content, next to the link in edit-mode that currently says:

Editing help (opens in new window)

So they would see this instead:

Editing help (opens in new window) Special characters (opens in new window)

Note: That Cheatsheet link is currently only visible for users without javascript. (For everyone else, it was hidden in gerrit 76069 (and was briefly discussed at MediaWiki talk:Edithelppage#Vanished?))

I believe it would require something like this:

• Move the current JS/CSS pages:
  • MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert.js to MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert-core.js
  • MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert.css to MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert-core.css
• Update MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition:

  * charinsert[ResourceLoader|default]|charinsert.js

  * charinsert-core[ResourceLoader|hidden|rights=hidden|dependencies=jquery.textSelection]|charinsert-core.js|charinsert-core.css

• (Re)create MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert.js with just a few lines:

  if( $.inArray( mw.config.get( 'wgAction' ), [ 'edit', 'submit' ] ) !== -1 || mw.config.get( 'wgCanonicalSpecialPageName' ) === 'Upload' ){

  mw.loader.load( 'ext.gadget.charinsert-core' );

Edokter, yes, I missed that "default" in the first version of the code, which should be removed. Not that it would make any difference, because no user has the (non-existing) right "hidden". So, it would be loaded by default, for no one ;-).

Or even better, since the script uses textSelection, just add the module "jquery.textSelection" to the list of dependencies of the gadget on its definition:

* charinsert[ResourceLoader|default|dependencies=jquery.textSelection]|charinsert.js|charinsert.css

It seems the first one is inserted by

            $( txtarea ).textSelection(
                'encapsulateSelection',
                { 'pre': tagOpen, 'peri': sampleText, 'post': tagClose }
            );

and the other one by

                txtarea.value = txtarea.value.substring( 0, startPos ) + tagOpen + selText
                    + tagClose + txtarea.value.substring( endPos );

So, I believe it is because we removed the "return" which existed before. For now, you can revert this change.

Helder.wiki, Confirmed over on Wikisource - this past week's changes do not induce the behavior so it is quite possible I missed the "change" that caused this oddity altogether. Sorry for pointing fingers prematurely.

Nevertheless, I'm sure this was not always the case - it did "work" as desired at some point in time. I've removed the prefix-character from templates for now, though I'm not savy enough to troubleshoot the issue any further.

One other question (and forgive me if this is obvious to experts) but why does Gadget-charinsert-core.js need the additional dependency of mediawiki.action.edit under the revised gadget? Wasn't the whole point of creating the "loader" enough to insure that? (or shouldn't mediawiki.action.edit be a dependent when loading Gadget-charinsert.js rather than Gadget-charinsert-core.js if anything?)

p.s. - if you ever get bored, we sure could use your skills to review/improve en.wikisource's .js/.css/gadget "scheme". I have always admired Wikibooks approach to all that compared to what we got stuck with but my skill set is way below what is needed to make those kind of tweaks/improvements/overhauls and, thanks to that, voicing those long needed changes to the "community" largely falls on deaf ears.

Thanks for your time either way.

I can answer that. The -core gadget needs mediawiki.action.edit because it uses one or more funtions in that module. The loader is there for one thing only; to load the -core only when an edit page is loaded. This saves loading a lot of javascript when it is not needed. — Edokter (talk) — 11:28, 12 March 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-03-12T11:28:00.000Z","author":"Edokter","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Edokter-2014-03-12T11:28:00.000Z-George_Orwell_III-2014-03-12T03:56:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Under Latin, could we have both Ə ə and Ǝ ǝ? (Make sure that the lower-case letters are matched correctly!) They're used in different alphabets.

Under Arabic, "transcription" should really be "transliteration".

Oh they still work (see Wikipedia_talk:Notifications#Typos too). Edokter you seem to have set '...DontMove' to 'true' (Why anyone wants tools below the terms of use disclaimer I'll never know) when it should have been 'false' plus you left out if(window.updateEditTools) window.updateEditTools(); as well.

Anyway, we had it "loading high" for awhile on Wikisource using something along the lines of....

            if ( window.charinsertMoveHigh ) {

Not sure. We've basically used variants of the following....

/* CharInsert specific */
window.charinsertDontMove = false;
window.editToolsRecall = true;
window.charinsertCustom = { User: ' |  =  {\{+}}  [\[+|]]  —  Æ  æ  Œ  œ  <code><nowiki>+</nowiki></code>  {\{ping|+}}' };
if(window.updateEditTools) window.updateEditTools();

... with little trouble for quite some time now. I thought the highlighted line made customization & the load order "agreeable". Other than the usual 'need to purge cache' issues, applying the above seems to work everybody either way - old style under the edit form box or stuck in between the textarea and the start of the edit summary - it works both ways.

What "we" were looking for was a third way (to load above WikiEditor) as Wikisource does a lot of transcribing (scrolling around just leads to losing the focus if you follow my drift). -- George Orwell III (talk) 14:19, 19 October 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-10-19T14:19:00.000Z","author":"George Orwell III","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-George_Orwell_III-2014-10-19T14:19:00.000Z-Edokter-2014-10-19T14:13:00.000Z","replies":["c-Anomie-2014-10-20T10:16:00.000Z-George_Orwell_III-2014-10-19T14:19:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Anomie:, editToolsRecall = true; should enable ↕ as clickable pseudo-button to the left of the drop down menu.

fwiw... the only difference I can nail down between the Wikipedia and the Wikisource approaches to the "editing tools" app scheme is that WS stopped bothering with the javascript-browser enabled (Edittools.js ?) part some time ago. Not only has the overall coding development moved away from supporting such javascripting but it would always load regardless of the condition at hand (e.g. the controlling css simply adds display: none; to the div container to "hide" the constant loading of MediaWiki:Edittools' content; just review the html source of any article already opened to edit mode to see what I'm talking about).

When I first saw "LoadHigh" in this thread, I was reminded of the MS-DOS command LOADHIGH.

Problem: The current (wikisource) MoveTop only works with the enhanced toolbar enabled. It also gains a blue background as a result of being part of the enhanced toolbar.

The blue background (actually ghostWhite) for all 3 possible positions is new on WS because the original inherited "blue" upon using LoadTop over there was visually irritating - I don't know if the same holds true here or has any color inherited here on WP at all. I'm not so sure the blue was being inherited from WikiEditor; at any rate if "we" can plain old white back somehow, I'd make the switch for all 3 possible positions.

If we can get it to load above the Classic toolbar, that would be great too -- but not a deal breaker for us.

Its obvious VisualEditor is to be the future default for sites as "big" as Wikipedia while WikiEditor seems to be to be geared more towards the "lesser" wikis such as Wikisource. The Classic toolbar is going to be more trouble than its worth some point in the future. Still, some folks swear by it so it would be neat if could be done too.

Its hard to get folks to accept simple facts like that - things such as the popularity/need for the RefToolbar here translates to a big honkin' waste of resources elsewhere. I wish the developers would just come up with one interface (a single blank toolbar) and let folks plug in (buttons or menus) what they want after that. -- George Orwell III (talk) 13:21, 21 October 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-10-21T13:21:00.000Z","author":"George Orwell III","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-George_Orwell_III-2014-10-21T13:21:00.000Z-Edokter-2014-10-21T10:19:00.000Z","replies":["c-Edokter-2014-10-21T18:01:00.000Z-George_Orwell_III-2014-10-21T13:21:00.000Z"]}}-->

Is it possible for an editor to customize this for individual use without replicating all the .js files? Alternatively, would it be possible to get a combined <code><nowiki></nowiki></code> option in the list of tools? I find I use this combination quite frequently; since the tool doesn't maintain focus on the selected text once it is wrapped, I have to re-select the desired text to apply the second wrap.

Also, just a quibble, but is there a way to wrap pairs in the tools so that they don't split across lines? Currently, in my browser, there is a line break between <s> and </s>.

While I'm at it (I didn't realize this place existed!), I'd suggest including a few more items in the Greek menu: Ϝϝ (digamma, used in some early Ancient Greek words), υ̯, and ι̯ (upsilon and iota with combining inverted breve below, used to represent the sound of digamma and a consonantal y), ᾹᾱᾸᾰῙῑῘῐῩῡῨῠ (Greek vowels with macrons and breves, used to show vowel length when necessary), and ΪϊΐῒῗΫϋΰῢῧ (letters with diaereses). I would put the digamma and iota-with-diacritic at the end of the alphabet (they're consonants not usually included in the alphabet), the letters with macrons and breves after all of the accented letters (they are strictly speaking not usually used, except in grammars and dictionaries), and the letters with diaereses with the iotas and upsilons in the lineup of accented letters.

I posted in Village Pump regarding {{Polytonic}}, which till recently was included in the special character inserter below the edit box. This template is now deprecated, and I have been adding {{lang|grc|}} as a replacement for it in articles on Ancient Greek (which is where polytonic Greek is used). I suggested that this template should be added in the character inserter (if that's what it's supposed to be called), since {{IPA}} and {{Unicode}} are included in the IPA and Unicode menus. User:Edokter mentioned the fact that if this template is to be included, other language templates will have to be as well (perhaps {{lang|ar|}}, {{transl|ar|DIN|}}, {{transl|ar|ALA|}}, for instance, in the Arabic menu), and suggested I post the suggestion here.

In case you didn't know -- you can add characters/simple templates to existing menu-sets as well as add your own new set(s). See the top section on this page for more but this should help start you on your way....

To add custom entries, adapt this code, and place it in your common.js:

// Add or modify CharInsert entries
window.charinsertCustom = { 
	"Greek": '  {\{lang|grc|+}}', 
	"Arabic": '  {\{lang|ar|+}}'

I think MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert-core.js and MediaWiki:Edittools are different in other ways as well. For instance, the Greek menu in the latter only has the standard Greek alphabet and Greek vowels with acute accents, but not all the other accented Greek characters (polytonic and ones with diaereses) that are in the former. There may be other differences in other menus. Could an editor with proper permissions compare MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert-core.js and MediaWiki:Edittools, and where these are different, paste the list from the Javascript page to the other page? When that is done, we can update Help:CharInsert with the missing characters. — Eru·tuon 19:50, 18 January 2015 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-01-18T19:50:00.000Z","author":"Erutuon","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Erutuon-2015-01-18T19:50:00.000Z-Gadget850-2015-01-18T11:58:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"Eru"}}-->

diff Happened when we made the Charinsert gadget the default, and disabling it, hides this.

I was trying to go here the other day on this point. Long story short: you can stick anything you like in MediaWiki:Editools and it will become a descendent of the div element with the class of mw-editTools (which is located [semantic] document-structure wise after the edit options "field" made available during every single edit / preview session you open or re-submit) all by design.

To further detail the nuance in play here -- you don need no stinkin' .js or .css (no MediaWiki:Edittools.js, no stinkin' MediaWiki:Gadget-Edittools.js, no stinkin' java or css tweak of any kind ) in order for whatever it is that currently resides in MediaWiki:Edittools to automatically populate itself under that <div class="mw-editTools"> div container. Whether or not you actually see anything with your eyeballs [renders] in your browser is after the fact and irrelevant to the point at hand here.

No script that throws up a banner telling users to blah... blah... blah... will stop that auto populating thing from happening. No script that tries to "divert" you away by holding the core bits needed to start separate from the bulk of an actual gadget will stop that auto populating thing from happening. All we're doing is "wasting" a perfectly good, built-in div container that's made available during each and every edit / preview session with stuff nobody neither wants to cut & paste from when better crippled freeware variants exist (and Work!) nor bets they'll ever find themselves in a real life-or-death, cut & paste character emergency in there remaining lifetimes as well (remember! Edittools is still being processed on every single edit or submit for every single User: -- once again -- by design).

Stop the madness; fish or cut bait already & clean house. We can keep CharInsert as a gadget and just the way it is [if you like] but at least blank that MW message if folks are still against "freeing that div up completely". I'm sure somebody can find a more positive use for it. -- George Orwell III (talk) 17:11, 27 January 2015 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-01-27T17:11:00.000Z","author":"George Orwell III","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-George_Orwell_III-2015-01-27T17:11:00.000Z-Gadget850-2015-01-26T22:59:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

This edit request to MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert-core.js has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I'd like to request additions to the Greek menu: characters with diaereses, macrons, and breves, the letter digamma, iota and upsilon with the non-syllabic diacritic (an inverted breve) under them, and the templates {{lang|grc}} and {{lang|el}}, which are used to correctly style Ancient and Modern Greek text. The diaeresis is used in both Modern and Ancient Greek, while macrons, breves, digamma, and the iota and upsilon with a diacritic are used occasionally in Ancient Greek.

The characters Ϝϝυ̯ι̯ should be added after the last block of the plain Greek alphabet (after Ωω) because they're consonants, but rare or historical ones. Characters with diaeresis, Ϊϊΐῒῗ Ϋϋΰῢῧ, should perhaps be added at the end of their respective blocks: iota with diaeresis at the end of the iota block (after Ἷἷ) and upsilon with diaeresis at the end of the upsilon block (after Ὗὗ). I would add the macroned and breved characters ᾹᾱᾸᾰῙῑῘῐῩῡῨῠ as a new block at the very end (after ᾯᾧ), and {{lang|el|+}} {{lang|grc|+}} as a new block after that.

If my instructions are too hard to understand, here's what the code for the Greek menu should look like:

'Greek': 'ΆάΈέΉήΊίΌόΎύΏώ ΑαΒβΓγΔδ ΕεΖζΗηΘθ ΙιΚκΛλΜμ ΝνΞξΟοΠπ ΡρΣσςΤτΥυ ΦφΧχΨψΩω Ϝϝυ̯ι̯ ᾼᾳᾴᾺὰᾲᾶᾷἈἀᾈᾀἉἁᾉᾁἌἄᾌᾄἊἂᾊᾂἎἆᾎᾆἍἅᾍᾅἋἃᾋᾃἏἇᾏᾇ ῈὲἘἐἙἑἜἔἚἒἝἕἛἓ ῌῃῄῊὴῂῆῇἨἠᾘᾐἩἡᾙᾑἬἤᾜᾔἪἢᾚᾒἮἦᾞᾖἭἥᾝᾕἫἣᾛᾓἯἧᾟᾗ ῚὶῖἸἰἹἱἼἴἺἲἾἶἽἵἻἳἿἷΪϊΐῒῗ ῸὸὈὀὉὁὌὄὊὂὍὅὋὃ ῤῬῥ ῪὺῦὐὙὑὔὒὖὝὕὛὓὟὗΫϋΰῢῧ ῼῳῴῺὼῲῶῷὨὠᾨᾠὩὡᾩᾡὬὤᾬᾤὪὢᾪᾢὮὦᾮᾦὭὥᾭᾥὫὣᾫᾣὯὧᾯᾧ ᾹᾱᾸᾰῙῑῘῐῩῡῨῠ {{lang|el|+}} {{lang|grc|+}}',

Other editors may want to rearrange the order of the letters, but the whole Greek menu needs reorganization, I think.

fwiw...It could just be my settings in particular. When I disable 'background-color: #f9f9f9' in IE's DOM explorer (in effect restoring 'transparent' instead of a color), the characters re-appear. I can live with it but if other folks see the same you might need to re-address this.
