Script question
Is it possible to create a javascript with which editors can verify outdated references with a single mouseclick? Basically all it would need to do is replace  with. Ideally it would be something that people could click on the bottom of the page next to each reference in question, but it could also be something that in the toolbox that verifies every reference on the page at once. So what say you sir? Is it doable? 23:30, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

FBB page blanking
Hello Q. My minion tidied up all the Yew Grove discussions earlier and everything went fairly smoothly, but it blanked several pages and I can't figure out why. These are the pages:


 * Forum:Why is Stinkowing still an administrator?
 * Forum:RE: Swearing
 * Forum:Request for bot on Ajrbot/archive
 * Forum:RuneScape Model Viewer = Against the rules/archive
 * Forum:Respecting classified information

The only possibility I can think of is that the size of these pages makes Mr. Bunny go bonkers, but I am kinda stumped here. Any ideas? Thanks, 22:27, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Excellent, thanks a bunch. I would give you 500000k geepees for your services but jamflex won't let me.  21:32, July 24, 2010 (UTC)

GEMW Updater bug report

 * Windows Vista, Firefox v3.6.6
 * An IP updated the price of Exchange:Gloves (grey) with an incorrect price changing it from 984 coins to 1907 coins. I undid (not reverted, if that's important) the edit, then updated it with the correct price, 1022 coins, however when I updated, the GEMW updater put the incorrect 1907 coins as the last price.
 * I expected the GEMW updater to use 984 as the last price, since it was the price of the current revision (after I undid the incorrect update).
 * Exchange:Gloves (grey) (history)

22:36, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Here's all the templates set up to use verification:


 * CiteDevDiary
 * CiteDevBlog
 * CiteForum
 * CiteGG
 * CiteSupport
 * CiteGodLetter
 * CiteNews
 * CitePostbag
 * CiteNPC
 * CitePoll
 * As for the GEMW updater, it seems that since the price limit was disabled, this feature is no longer necessary. In the strange event that an IP does update over and over to avoid tripping the "possible vandalism" message, it will be very obvious in the recent changes as we see a bunch of edits from one IP on an exchange page, and his edits will be reverted immediately. 00:28, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you mind if I steal adapt your Template toolbar script to create a citation-specific template toolbar? 02:09, July 24, 2010 (UTC)

Special/Cached pages
Is there a way to override the data on the special pages to force more recent versions, such as Special:UnusedFiles and Special:DoubleRedirects? It now updates every 28 hours, instead of the usual 24 (I think). There seems to be issues and I don't like waiting this long... --Coolnesse 13:34, July 23, 2010 (UTC)

Purging
Can you please let User:QBot purge the Template:Userbox/Random words every minute(or 5) so that the text changes? 14:25, July 24, 2010 (UTC)

Pop-out link?
Hello Big Q, I have a question that I hope you can answer with all of your coding and scripting power. Now that my proposal at Forum:Wiki changes has gotten support, I'm working on putting together the RuneScape:Survey page. because we are using a free SurveyMonkey account for obvious reasons, our surveys are limited to 10 questions each, meaning we will have to make 2 surveys and link to them separately. My concern is that when someone completes the first survey, It will require too much effort for them to get back to the RuneScpae wiki, and they will not take the other survey. Basically, I was wondering if there is any way to have the link open the survey web page in a pop-up (without causing pop-up blocker problems), so that the visitor can quickly complete the survey, exit the pop-up, and still be on the RuneScape:Survey page, making it easy for them to complete the other one. Is this possible? You can find a link to an example survey here. Many thanks- 15:26, July 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * That looks fantastic! Can you rig it up for the real thing? The links are http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/LGDLZXR and http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/LGC2Q9J. Thanks- 19:02, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh my goodness, and now, due to technical difficulties, we are using a one-page survey. Can you adjust accordingly?, in other words, just have the pop out link open the one survey?-- 17:22, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yah, it looks so much better. Thanks so much for your help, you (as always) rock my world -- 00:58, July 28, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Additional code
Yay! Thanks! 00:56, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

Text wrap around position:absolute
Do you know sir how I can wrap text around an element placed with positon:absolute? I'm trying to modify User:Psycho Robot/monaco.css so that text wraps around the followed pages list instead of plowing right through it like your colossal aunt through a brick wall (you know which one I mean), but I can't figure it out. 00:59, July 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hum I was hoping for something that could be put in a css file that could make text wrap around it. It seems silly... ridiculous even... that wikia would put this thing up that doesn't even wrap around plain text without the help of Javascript >_> 03:59, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Silly wikia. I suggest a curative tonic of fire and brimstone. 04:23, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

Embeddable IRC
Here is the coding in my JS: http://chicken7.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js

Here is what it produces: http://chicken7.wikia.com/wiki/IRC

Here is where I hope to embed it: http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/RuneScape:Off-site/IRC

Cheers, 02:55, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

WikiScript
First of all: I'd like to say your new GE interface looks pretty cool!

Alright, so I wanted to know if a feature that is available with JScript is available with WikiScript, and if not, if it it possible (without too much trouble of course) to add it. I wonder if it is possible to that, when the option in the contextual menu (or whatever their name is, you know what I mean, I think) is changed that the display of the page/submission box is changed, without submitting the form.

What I mean is: (stupid example btw, not really going to make this)
 * Menu has choice of orange and red
 * I choose red > text changes to red
 * I choose orange > text changes to orange

Basicly, I want text to appear upon changing options in a menu without submitting the form.

Thanks in advance.

02:01, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

Oh wow, you already anticipated my question =). I would help you get this project started up faster, unfortunately I don't understand squat about the way to implement such a program, so I'm pretty useless here =P.

A possible error.
On my Adventurer's Log shown here, it shows the quest Rum Deal as "A Rum Deal". 06:41, July 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh! Thanks. I should of looked at my Adventurer's Log on their web site before thinking it might be a bug on your end ^^""" 22:42, July 29, 2010 (UTC)

Auto CVU
Auto CVU is failing for me, why does this happen? It used to work fine before, but now this keeps coming up. Help pl0x 10:24, July 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, that was kind of freaky. I cleared my cache and it worked =/. Weird because it has worked in the past. Thanks, 13:11, July 29, 2010 (UTC)

My Dynamic Signature Troubles
Well i got the script changed and Im running intoa problem. I'm using XAMPP, the php script im using is w:c:combatarms:User:H_Fern/sandbox/sig, and i'm getting the result of w:c:combatarms:User:H_Fern/sandbox/sig/results. Help me make my dreams come true! User:H Fern 20:02, July 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * There are not whitespaces before the <?php tag

external image whitelist
Do you think adding twitpic and facebook would be beneficial? Then people wouldn't have to upload hint images to the wiki to add them to the wiki. We could perhaps modify the url so only images from Jagex's facebook account (RuneScape) and twitpic account (Runescape) could be added, though I don't know if that would be necessary 03:54, July 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah damn, I forgot about thumbnailing things. Oh well. Another day another lesson. Cheers, good sir. 06:29, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

It's great! Very helpful when i don't wanna go all the way to the G.E. feature on the website :P Metapig 01:56, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Email Link on RuneScape:Administrators
Hello, I was just wondering if you would be OK with having a link to your email on RuneScape:Administrators. You don't need to provide your email address, as it will be linked to through Special:Emailuser. Please respond on my talk page. Thanks! 20:21, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Re: Making a Chrome add-on
Definition of awesomeness.

Not to be a nag, but you shouldn't have much trouble porting it to Safari if you wanted. (Safari extensions = Same web technologies as Chrome extensions.) 16:35, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Chrome extension feedback
Wow! I am very impressed by your awesome extension for google chrome! Thank you for making such a useful tool!

I have an idea to add, but I'm not sure if it would be possible. Allowing to open the wiki page on top of the RuneScape page, making editing not an interrupting activity. I'm not too sure if it would be feasible, but I (and I'm sure other users too would) would really find such a feature to be useful.

17:01, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Hehe. Yeah, RuneScape hasn't seen an update in a long time. Anyway, keep up the good work with your extensions (ver. 0.4 already? wow!). Hope your extensions get some feedback and some interested people. Thank you for your wonderful tool!

Pop-up closebutton
Currently, when opening a closebutton and hovering over the image it doesn't change (normal close buttons usually do). That's why it might be nicer if the button would turn red if hovered over, though I'm not sure if you have a red version available? Shouldn't be hard to add (give it a class and define the :hover in the CSS file). Mark ( talk ) 18:25, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Great! Always nice if people listen to suggestions. Mark  ( talk ) 22:16, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Survey bug
Looks like it had a relatively minor impact, as we are already over 1100 responses. Thanks for letting me know. -- 22:15, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Chrome extension feedback
Very nice. I noticed though when you search "Yew Logs" it doesn't find anything, but when you search "yew logs" it does. So I guess the GE look up thing is case sensitive, so maybe having it convert what you type to lowercase when you press go or something to help "idoit-proof" it? =o 04:35, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Also maybe when you close Google Chrome, have it to where it empties out the Player's Highscore box? O-o 08:39, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Halp@@
I signed on this morning and I can no longer see the sitenotice. I know I didn't dismiss it and I even tried adding 1 to the sitenotice id but it still doesn't work. D: 15:54, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nvm, fixed now. 16:37, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

Help with hiscore Qbot
I've been having problems with my hiscore update bot. I got help from Gaz Lloyd but it's still not working so I added a section to the RS:UH page. They said I should ask you for help. Could you please check my page to see what the problem is? I really have no idea how Wiki stuff works :( -- k thx bye - Evil Borg2 20:54, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

I'm so stupid. I think what happened was it wasn't working earlier because I did it wrong, and Gaz Lloyd fixed it. But I had recently changed my name so it wasn't working when Gaz fixed it. I updated the name on the bot, I will update after I give it time to see if it is working or not.-- k thx bye - Evil Borg2 22:38, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

It works!!!!! Thanks for your help. -- k thx bye - Evil Borg2 23:10, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Bug report: gemwupdate.js
Several bugs have been identified in gemwupdate.js:
 * 1) Automatic page reloading after submission of items containing a + in their title fails (Example: Exchange:Antipoison++ (4)).
 * 2) Submission of prices from the Antipoison++ page fail, which may be related to the multiple prices or to the +.

Fake editcount
Hi, I would like to know how to make a fake editcount, just like i did here, but that i could still click on things like my watchlist and the More... button for things like preferences and widgets. Now i have done it by letting my image editcount hover over the original editcount, but then i can't click those things. Could you please make something that works about the same as Title? 01:53, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Enable/disable variables
Hiya! As the Gadgets extension has been enabled, could you please make sure all current scripts have an enable/disable variable? This way users can choose to for example disable the link to "my watchlist". Thanks! Mark ( talk ) 19:22, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

A Question
Hello Quarenon! I have a small question for you: Can you watermark on this wiki, like you can in microsoft word? If so, how?

Thank you. Finch Claw 10:07, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you, Quarenon, you've been a real help. I'm also considering that offer of yours. 07:35, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks also question
Thanks for the move i thought i fixed that or something. or canceled that. either that it did it again. not sure..

Also can i beta test your scripts in testing??

I just need instructions on how to do so. thanks oops forgot to sign 18:10, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

If you ever get time
Can you help make make a stat thing just like yours? I love the way it works. just very confusing to me. how its coded. 19:44, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Highscores Box
I feel like an idiot, but I've somehow broken my box when I changed my in-game name. What's the most common mistake made, and how do I fix it please? Thanks. --Sw0rd1914 20:47, August 10, 2010 (UTC)

MediaWiki hates my experiment
Look here. The text is in a div with styling, but MediaWiki says that it is an "insecure input". (If you're in Chrome and have developer tools on, right click the text, and click Inspect Element, then check the style.) If you could edit the page and fix it to work that would be awesome. Thanks in advance. 18:36, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Q bot request!
I've been interested in revamping the infotable bonuses process to make it so users have to create no formatting themselves. As such I am wondering if qbot can help in converting the existing uses of the templates into the new syntax. Specifically I am wondering if you can convert...

...into...

The old values in row format correspond to the following new values in order:

 * 0||0||0||-65||-21||+207||+209||+192||-12||+205||+102||0||0||0
 * }

However sometimes the later additions are missing, so would it be possible to add a blank "magicdamage=" to the end if its not defined? The resulting table's total row would be messed up since I haven't made the appropriate changes to that template. I will do so immediately after the conversion is complete. Also, don't bother with Template:Infotable Bonuses multi-totals, since that's gonna be changed later in a way I'm not totally sure of, and the uses are few enough that I can change it manually whenever its finalised. I offer to do the grunt work, if there's any involved, though I'm afraid my experience with bots is next to none. 20:41, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Navbox With Collapsible Groups modification
How could i make this template go from http://i37.tinypic.com/16mpvd.png to http://i35.tinypic.com/23ns4g.png
