[Bug 52811] Remove Enable section editing via [edit] links user preference from MediaWiki core
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52811 TE troyen...@gmail.com changed: What|Removed |Added CC||troyen...@gmail.com --- Comment #16 from TE troyen...@gmail.com --- I'm not a MediaWiki guru to be able to figure this out, but with the 1.23 release I can't figure out how to disable this again. It's referenced above: Users interested in hiding section-edit links can use per-user (or site-wide) CSS. Great, but can someone update documentation on exactly *how* to do this? In my LocalSettings.php I have the old setting which is apparently ignored now: $wgDefaultUserOptions ['editsection'] = false; I've dumped the DB and grepped and find only one reference to 'noeditsection' in the data, and my user account still shows the [Edit] on sections. The wiki indicates nothing about this change yet: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgDefaultUserOptions Can one of y'all please post exactly what needs to go where to disable site-wide this feature for anonymous, new and previous (logged in) users so that this change removing the feature can be put back into CSS? I'd be happy to update the above wiki page if someone just tells me *how* to go about it as a low-speed wiki operator who doesn't live breathe this code.

Can one of y'all please post exactly what needs to go where to disable
site-wide this feature for anonymous, new and previous (logged in) users so
that this change removing the feature can be put back into CSS?
You can try adding the following code to the page MediaWiki:Common.css on
your wiki (untested, but should work...):
.mw-editsection { display: none; }

Got it -- I had to add !important, so this works:
.mw-editsection { display:none!important; }
I'll get the wiki page updated with the new method, thanks!

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52811 --- Comment #15 from MZMcBride b...@mzmcbride.com --- (In reply to Danny B. from comment #14) Described in the last line of comment #11. The last line of comment 11 is: And gadgets are what? Saved in preferences. Hence we are where we were. Sure, but most users and most wikis don't want or need an extra user preference for this. These links are automatically shown based on user permission and they're able to be hidden on a site-wide basis, on a per-page basis, and on a per-user basis. I don't see a need for a user preference here. What's the use-case, exactly? Why would a user want to hide these links for only their account? Regarding gadgets specifically, a few wikis might create such a gadget, but I doubt it. The overall MediaWiki experience (including that of most Wikimedia wikis) will have less clutter. This seems like a win to me. Out of curiosity, has this happened anywhere? Yes. Where? Links welcome. :-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

However I agree that statistics on how many users have enabled such a setting might be helpful for future evaluation when killing some preferences. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
