Better pengLocation script
I have improved the script that makes the list in dndl selectable.

The new script can be tested here: User:Tyilo/PengTest

You will need to include importScript('User:Tyilo/peng_test.js'); in your skin.js

The improvements are:
 * When you select an item in the long list it will also be selected in the short list (and vice versa).
 * "Reset marked locations" button on both lists.
 * Option to float the shortlist.

The new script is located here: User:Tyilo/peng_test.js

If you accept this improvement you will need to change the line containing if (wgPageName == 'User:Tyilo/PengTest') /*(wgPageName == 'Distractions_and_Diversions_Locations' || wgPageName == 'Distractions_and_Diversions_Locations/Penguin_Hide_and_Seek')*/ {

with

if (wgPageName == 'Distractions_and_Diversions_Locations' || wgPageName == 'Distractions_and_Diversions_Locations/Penguin_Hide_and_Seek') {

 * As the guy who updates the page with Team Penguin info, I would point out that the "short list" isn't really part of the page nor is it something I intend to maintain. I don't see a lot of value in entering the same information twice to keep 2 lists of the same info on the same page. Perhaps that discussion should occur first. -- 01:09, February 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * If you don't have a gigantic display you can't see all the penguins at once. But with the short list you can quickly get an overview of all the penguins. 01:17, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * I could easily just remove the maps. -- 02:48, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Is it possible to have a hide/show option for the map column, so they are still there, but can be hidden if people just want the short list? 02:57, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think we should leave out the maps. It would be possible to have a hide/show option, but should it be for each penguin or one at the top hiding/showing all maps at once? 06:29, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * One at the top makes the most sense. I'm assuming it's possible, not 100% sure though. 09:34, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * I have updated the script at User:Tyilo/PengTest with the option to hide/show the maps on the large table.
 * I'd suggest removing the support for the "short list" (floating, syncing selected rows, whatever else) from the js, since the whole point of hiding the maps is to make the short list unnecessary. Also, if we ever deploy the script, I'd suggest NOT doing it around peng reset time. -- 11:14, February 6, 2012 (UTC)

Comment - Would this become obsolete with Forum:New javascript calculators (if it passes)? 14:25, March 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * It's not even close to being a calculator, so no. -- 18:51, March 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * Well the calculator script also has something for penguin points, so it could be. 12:44, March 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Have a look at the page. It's a list of spawn points (a table), which changes weekly. Ten penguins are chosen from approximately 65 possible ones. This JS deals with highlighting and formatting the table. No calculation occurs. -- 13:11, March 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * The script by Stewbasic doesn't just calculate. It also deals with highlighting. Check User:Stewbasic/calc after importing User:Stewbasic/calc.js to your JS to see. And even if your script does more than that, couldn't you just talk to stewbasic and ask him to merge the scripts? 14:02, March 10, 2012 (UTC)
