The new lesson is up. You may be familiar with the threat of vandalism and the constant war that is raging to keep it under control. Well, another not so well known war is being fought against a similar but distinct problem on Wikipedia: Link spam. Many people place links on Wikipedia that don't belong, for various reasons, and our anti-spam teams are struggling to keep up. Below, Yuser presents this dimension of wiki-maintenance, and explains how you can help fight the good fight. Viva la Wikipedia! The Transhumanist 22:49, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Questions and miscellaneous comments - anything goes
Some script-related questions
Rich, I 've started looking over your monobook.js, and have some questions for you:
I've cut and pasted your Lupin popups calling script, and it works fine. And it's better than copying the whole program in. Will that syntax work for calling any script?
I noticed you have {{User:AndyZ/peerreviewer.js}} commented out on there. Did you actually have this transcluded and working?
What does the "clever watchlist stuff do?" The Transhumanist 12:44, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
- I believe that syntax works for any script. And it's been suggested I should make some of my stuff subpages included that way.
- Incidentally you will see I have a method for putting edit sections in .js. This appears to only work once the page has been edited in that session - very strange - but when it does it's useful.
- I never got peereviewer.js working. The watchlist breaks your watchlist down by user spaces - well actually it's by ":" so it can break some names. For example

Rich Farmbrough, 18:09 17 November 2006 (GMT).
- By edit sections in .js, do you mean the in-frame editing? Like so:
/////Edit-in-frame. fast and fun! document.write('<script src="' + 'http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Benutzer:ASM/quickedit.js' + '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript"></script>'); var qeEnabled = true; // Activate Script? var qeEnableSection0 = true; // Enable QuickEdit link for section 0 (introduction)?
- Also, I noticed your capitalization script seems to decapitalize all words after the initial word in a header - this might lead to problems, such as with proper nouns. --Gwern (contribs) 19:56 17 November 2006 (GMT)
- Gwern, by "edit sections" I believe he meant headings, like this...
Edit section
He has a way of commenting them out, but they still work as wikicode, so the "[edit]" section buttons are made available on the right side of the screen.
Rich, it should be pretty easy to fix the peer review script not to break page names, by checking against the list of namespaces, right? "If this prefix is is not one of these, then process the line as one with a normal page on it." Right? The Transhumanist 06:05, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
