User talk:Hoo man

Hello, Hoo. Is there a way to make your tagger and other scripts to work on Chrome? I see they work fine on FF, but most of the times they do nothing on Chrome.—Teles «Talk to me ˱_{@ L C S} ˲» 23:47, 18 July 2013 (UTC) Reply

As I don't use WebKit/ Blink based browsers myself often I didn't notice this until now, thanks for letting me know. While I already have overhauled versions of all tools on github for months now ([1]) it's not trivial to migrate all of those into production as eg. several gadgets and maybe some user configurations will break. Sadly this situation is especially bad with the tagger, as it is used as gadget on several wikis with different configurations. I'll try to find the time to migrate all tools to the state in github until the Wikimania (and I really hope that will fix these problems) - Hoo man (talk) 00:40, 19 July 2013 (UTC) Reply

Ok. Thanks for checking that!—Teles «Talk to me ˱_{@ L C S} ˲» 00:22, 23 July 2013 (UTC) Reply

Hello. I Copy-pasted your User:hoo man/smart rollback.js to my Wikidata common.js (d:User:Hym411/common.js see history), but It didn't work. can you help me with this? --Revi ^Discuss _{SUL Info} 17:03, 3 August 2013 (UTC) Reply

Hoo sorry to butt in, but it would work if you do it like this:

mw.loader.load('//meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Hoo_man/smart_rollback.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');

Hi Hoo man. Two twings I would like to discuss with you:

1) Quentinv57 said on IRC that he asked you before to merge your synchbot page (User:Hoo man/Synchbot) with the one of Pathoschild (User:Pathoschild/Scripts/Synchbot), but he also said that you never answered. Maybe you could think you about this suggestion and merge the two pages?

2) Second question: would you maybe also have the access to do these actions with Patho's bot? :) I don't think Quentinv57 would mind and there is a structural backlog on that request page.

With regards, Trijnstel _talk 19:58, 22 September 2013 (UTC) Reply

Well, this is kind of a longer story but I can sum it up briefly. My plan was to implement global JavaScript as part of a MediaWiki extension this year, but as you probably noticed it didn't come to this and I don't really think I'll have the time for that anytime soon. So if I find time to work on the global JavaScript thing anytime again, I will certainly spend that on writing the mentioned extension. I don't really get the second question, is it about using Patho's script? - Hoo man (talk) 18:34, 24 September 2013 (UTC) Reply

Well, yes. At the moment only Pathoschild and Quentinv57 use the bot/script. I thought, maybe you can help out a bit... Trijnstel _talk 18:53, 24 September 2013 (UTC) Reply

Dear Hoo man, User:Shubha has made following complaints:

1. Here is the page which gives details of my global account - https://sa.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A4%B5%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%B6%E0%A5%87%E0%A4%B7%E0%A4%AE%E0%A5%8D:%E0%A4%AE%E0%A4%A7%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AF%E0%A4%B5%E0%A4%B0%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A4%E0%A5%80%E0%A4%AA%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%AE%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%A8%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AF/Shubha --my (User:Shubha)'s account is not working on Marathi wiki. How to go about it ?

2. One more question is - can't the edits done in Sanskrit incubator be transferred to sa.wikiquote.org / sa.wikipedia.org edits for this user ?

I request you to kindly look into the matter and please respond at the earliest. Regards, Hindustanilanguage (talk) 12:10, 9 October 2013 (UTC).Reply

Hi Hindustanilanguage,

to get the account on mrwiki attached to his global account, Shubha should try using Special:MergeAccount. If that doesn't work because he doesn't know the password for the account on mrwiki, he has to get the mrwiki account renamed so that he can create a new one with that name (see also Help:Unified_login#Conflict_resolution, please note that mrwiki has active local bureaucrats).

I can't really answer you second question as I'm not into the Incubator and its processes enough, but I think this should have happened by the time the wikis were created - Hoo man (talk) 18:56, 9 October 2013 (UTC) Reply

Thank you for the information. Hindustanilanguage (talk) 03:03, 10 October 2013 (UTC).Reply

Hi Hoo man. I saw that your bot stopped updating the "image of the day" page on bs.wiki. The last edit was on 2nd of october. Can you tell me whether you will continue updating this? -- Edinwiki (talk) 13:36, 27 October 2013 (UTC) Reply
