[edit] Installation instructions
To install the script:
- Go to Special:Mypage/monobook.js and click "Edit this page"
- Copy/Paste the following script into the edit box, and save. Follow the displayed instruction to bypass your browser cache.
A slightly modified version is also available as an includable script at Gerbrant.edit.top.
[edit] Code
[edit] JavaScript
// This will add an [edit] link at the top of all pages except preview pages and the main page // by User:Pile0nades // Add an [edit] link to pages addOnloadHook(function () { // if this is preview page or generated page, stop if( document.getElementById("wikiPreview") || document.getElementById("histlegend") || document.getElementById("difference") || document.getElementById("watchdetails") || document.getElementById("ca-viewsource") || window.location.href.indexOf("/wiki/Special:") != -1 ) { if(window.location.href.indexOf("&action=edit§ion=0") != -1) { document.getElementById("wpSummary").value = "/* Intro */ "; } return; }; // get the page title var pageTitle = wgPageName; // create div and set innerHTML to link var divContainer = document.createElement("div"); divContainer.innerHTML = '<div class="editsection">[<a href="/w/index.php?title='+pageTitle+'&action=edit§ion=0" title="Edit section: '+pageTitle+'">edit intro</a>]</div>'; // insert divContainer into the DOM below the h1 if(window.location.href.indexOf("&action=edit") == -1) { document.getElementById("content").insertBefore(divContainer, document.getElementsByTagName("h1")[0]); } });
[edit] Usage
Now go to any page on Wikipedia and the [edit intro] link will appear at the top right. This link will load only the "zeroth" section of the article into the edit page.
