Suffix, not prefix

After testing this gadget, I found that it does suffix search, not prefix search. A prefix search would be matching my name with "*Søby", but it only matched my name on "Jon Harald*". I fixed this in the description, but you might want to change that in the tool too… Jon Harald Søby (talk) 19:40, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

IPs don't work

I already used this gadget on dewp, where it worked with IP ranges with the asterisk. But if I try to find the edits by 74.82.68.162 or 74.82.68.160 using the link

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/74.82.68.*

I don't get a result. It always says, that there are no edits. Also CIDR ranges don't work.
Whats wrong here? This would be really useful for the vandalism fight.
Thank you very much. Best regards, --#Reaper (talk) 23:01, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

An other example would be Special:Contributions/94.72.63.204. If you use [[1]] it will find other IPs, but not the previous one. Same also with other IPs like "175.139.122.85". It also doesn't work with CIDR-Range.

It would be really really useful if this would be working correctly.

It seems to be working for me now. Maybe it was the contentmodel issue? Legoktm (talk) 23:45, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

It seems to work now also for me without problems. Thank you again! :) But I can't tell if this was fixed with the content model or not, only tested after your latest change. But I don't think so, otherwise the script shouldn't have worked at all. Btw: How to change the content model? Wasn't able to find an option for this. Or is it a non-admin right?

Formatting

What happened to the formatting of this JS page? It should look like w:en:MediaWiki:Gadget-contribsrange.js. Helder.wiki 00:39, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

The contentmodel was set to wikitext instead of javascript. Legoktm (talk) 19:15, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
