User:Mr. Stradivarius/gadgets/UserTalkCleaner
This gadget cleans certain automated messages from user talk pages. The following messages are supported:
- Wikipedia Signpost
- Feedback request service
- Tech news
- You've got mail
- Global collaboration newsletter
- Administrators' newsletter
It will work on any page in the user talk namespace, so you can also use it on user talk archives and on talk pages of other users. Please respect the talk page guidelines when using this tool - usually that will mean not using it to clean talk pages of user accounts that you do not control.
Installation
[edit]Add the following to Special:MyPage/common.js:
importScript('User:Mr. Stradivarius/gadgets/UserTalkCleaner.js'); // Linkback: [[User:Mr. Stradivarius/gadgets/UserTalkCleaner.js]]
Usage
[edit]- Edit your talk page.
- Click the "Clean talk page" link in the "Tools" toolbar. This removes any automated messages in the edit window and adds an automated edit summary. If no automated messages are found, an alert will pop up telling you so.
- Save the page.
Bug reports and feature requests
