Handig javascript
bewerkenDit script heb ik van de Engelse Wikipedia overgenomen: userinfo.js van user PleaseStand. Op je [gebruikersnaam]/common.css pagina moet dan nog staan '#siteSub { display: inline; }', en op [gebruikersnaam]/common.js 'importScript("User:Erik_Zachte/userinfo.js");' Vanaf dat moment krijg je op elke gebruikerspagina als eerste deze regel: 'A registered user, with 2,034 edits. Last edited 5 minutes ago. From Wikipedia.' kan ook 'An edit filter manager and administrator, with 237,717 edits. Last edited 7 minutes ago. From Wikipedia.' oid zijn. Erg handig. Erik Zachte (overleg) 11 jun 2013 01:18 (CEST)
- Ik heb je bericht ook naar de Kroeg gekopieerd. Deze pagina wordt niet zoveel bezocht en ik denk dat veel mensen dit wel een handig script zullen vinden. MrBlueSky (overleg) 13 jun 2013 19:49 (CEST)

Technisch comité
bewerkenHey, voor Comité ter selectie van een nieuwe voorpagina ben ik zoek naar mensen die willen meehelpen aan de technische kant van de selectieprocedure. Opkuisen en testen van de geselecteerde ontwerpen. Proberen ervan in verschillende browsers, besturingssystemen en apparaten (iOS, Android, ...) PS: je moet neutraal zijn en mag zelf geen voorstellen indienen of eraan meewerken.
