That security fix also caused at least two different regressions, so I'd be a little wary of using things it did beyond fixing the editfont injection bug as precedent. > I'd recommend using a prefix like "gadget" instead since "user scripts" are > something else ("user scripts" are non-modularised subpages of a User page).

Or have some way to not have to wade through a gadgets list 200 pages long if all user scripts are converted to gadgets? If not, this is not particularly helpful. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
