User talk:Trilobite/Tools

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Based on a bookmarklet from http://www.squarefree.com, I was able to make this monstrosity of a Quick search:

javascript:q = %22%22 + ('%s' != '%' + 's' ? '%s' : window.getSelection ? window.getSelection() : document.getSelection ? document.getSelection() : document.selection.createRange().text); if (!q) q = prompt(%22You didn't select any text.  Enter a WP: shortcut:%22, %22%22); if (q!=null) location=%22http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:%22 + escape(q.replace(/ /g, %22+%22).toUpperCase()); void 0;
  • If you type "wp beans" into the address bar, it goes to WP:BEANS (converts to uppercase for you)
  • If you have a word highlighted on the page, like "BEANS", and type "wp" into the address bar (or press the bookmark button), it goes to WP:BEANS (you can also right-click and press the search in the menu bar with the SmartSearch extension)
  • If you just type "wp" it prompts you to enter the shortcut

Originally I was just going to make a simple one to do the uppercase conversion (holding down shift is sooo difficult) but copy and paste is so easy... So the highlighted text and prompt came with it. I'll probably never use them, but I know that they're there.

Javascript can make crazy quick searches... :-) — Omegatron 03:40, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Modified monobook sidebar.PNG

Image:Modified monobook sidebar.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
