Propose to transform an existing CSS or Javascript script into a gadget
This page is designed for collecting proposals of CSS and Javascript scripts (i.e. scripts that you can enable in your common.css and common.js pages) which are widely used (see statistics) and that could be transformed into gadgets (i.e. scripts that you can enable in the section "Gadgets" of your Preferences). Please {{Ping}} the developer of the gadget in your proposal and/or write them in their user talk page before making the proposal. Comments on existing proposals are welcome. If the proposal reaches a consensus, an interface administrator can create the new gadget in the MediaWiki namespace.

WikidataTrust, developed in 2013 by @Ricordisamoa: (unfortunately inactive since 2020), is a popular gadget, presently used by 187 users, 93 of them being active users (see Wikidata:Database reports/Gadget usage statistics/wikidata); it was also among the gadgets shown during the session "A few useful gadgets and scripts for Wikidata" of the Wikidata:Events/Leveling Up Days 2024 two months ago. It allows to see easily which users contributed to creating and editing all the single parts of a Wikidata item, which is very useful both for retropatrolling and for discovering which users have worked and/or presently work on one's preferred topics. I think having it as gadget would make it more accessible (which is true, in general, for all scripts) to a bigger number of users which could enjoy its functionality while editing but may not be well familiar with common.js. --Epìdosis 17:05, 1 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
