Coming in to edit at this point was probably because you noticed that I deleted my reason for editing as to the boats only being only being able to sail between Lowertown and Loe Pool in Defoe's time. That comment had to be deleted, due to the facts being wrong - the 18 inch mooring ring was actually on the hook that was inserted into the mediaeval wall behind the Victorian cottages and to the left of Castle Hill, and disintigrated from its age around 50 to 60 years ago, but was the most conspicuous evidence of a relic of the port, in contrast to the seven harbour mooring rings seen to the right of the 'Pay Here' sign on the inside of the carpark wall which bounds St. Johns lane in Helston. It is the lack of awareness on the part of geomorphologists of the six to seven metre depth of silt build-up from the double valley mines, over six centuries, that gave them the false evidence to dispute the post 1014 CE existence of Helston port (transferred to Gweek around 1260 AD and from thence to Porthleven in 1825).

With this edit you removed a number of red links (and, importantly, a valid blue link) from Template:Washington(edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs). I've gone ahead and reverted those changes. Please see how to handle red links at WP:REDDEAL, or view the entire guideline at WP:REDLINK. State agencies are generally notable, and red links help editors with figuring out where they should devote their time to on Wikipedia. Removing red links makes it difficult for editors to focus on topics that may need attention. —Locke Cole • t • c17:47, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for uploading File:Don Henley - Dirty Laundry.ogg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Hello everyone, and welcome to the 27th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter, covering all our favorite new and updated user scripts since 2025! Boy, does it feel good to kick off the year with an issue. Yep, it's been a year since we cleared out the 2022-2024 backlog with issues 23 and 24! Good times. Though in this case "a year" just means... 6 months? 😯 The salience of whatever joke I was planning to make here has vanished speedily. Aaron Liu (talk) 21:00, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WikiTextExpander by Polygnotus, is this edition's featured script. At the click of a configurable hotkey, this script will find and replace or link a configurable list of phrases within the selected text in all source editors (even in the comment/reply field!). Besides allowing the quick insertion of templated messages, this script greatly mitigates the WP:WTF? problem by providing both the legibility of familiar words and the convenience of shortcuts. And to those asking, the capitalization of "Wikitext" as "WikiText" was a necessary sacrifice for far-more-memorable acronymy.
CanonNi: AlertAssistant has been fixed and rewritten using OOUI instead of Twinkle's Morebits. Such modern, very tool. (Do note that the maintainer has since become inactive.)
NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh/AjaxLoader has been updated to use modern JS APIs that replace the browser's URL bar with the link you clicked on to load in place. The "back" (and "forward") buttons also work now. Cool, innit?
andrybak: Unsigned helper no longer shows an error when the message to sign was added in the earliest 50 revisions of a page's history. This is especially relevant to pages with short histories.
BilledMammal/Move+ needs updating to order list of pages handle lists of pages to move correctly regardless of the discussion's page, so that we may avoid repeating fiasco history.
In breaking m:Tech/News, Gadgets can now include .vue files. This makes it easier to develop modern user interfaces using Vue.js, in particular using Codex, the official design system of Wikimedia. Codex icons are now also available. The documentation has examples.
Appo/Globstory integrates OpenHistoryMap, updating the map whenever hovering/clicking on a location or year, the latter of which changes the map to be (hopefully) accurate to the year selected. It's pretty interesting.
linkinfo Somewhat similar to WP:NavPops, Awesome Aasim/linkinfo(pictured) provides a collection of links to replace the right-click context menu, presented beautifully.
PreviousDiscussions provides a link to search for your username on subpages of another user's userpage and talkpage conveniently.
Twineeea/noRedLinks brings you to the "read" instead of the "create" tab when you visit a red link. Contemplate life's mysteries as you stare into the blank! Deeply.
No, this is not going to be the enduring tradition of S++ for the future. This was meant to be a joke for the special occasion on the first day of the fourth month but was delayed by four months because I'm lazy.

Hello! Voting in the 2025 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 1 December 2025. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
Please remember to assume good faith when dealing with other editors. Thank you. 2600:387:F:5B14:0:0:0:9 (talk) 20:00, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
