@Wallacegromit1: Such a user script already exists: d:User:Matěj Suchánek/moveClaim.js. Also, if you are creating lots of items about journal articles you might want to use something like QuickStatements instead of making them manually. Jc86035 (talk) 07:01, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

@Jc86035: Thanks You! --Wallacegromit1 (talk) 09:35, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

• See also #Freely editable input mask which requests a "create like" functionality

Wallacegromit1 I will close this proposal as there is a user script linked already by Jc86035. There is also another wish - Freely editable input mask which proposes a similar feature. I hope nobody minds. Please ping me if you have any concerns/questions. Thank you for submitting this proposal. -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 23:26, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
