Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Multimedia and Commons/Add the number of items (search results) in "What links here"
Add the number of items (search results) in "What links here"
- Problem: If you want to know, which pages / items link to a specific page, you can click on "What links here" in the left column under Tools, example. But you can't see the number of items which links until you click on "500 search results per page" or sometimes you need "5000" to see the line: "Displayed 1,846 items."
- Proposed solution: Add this line (how many items) everytime and independently of an enough big number of search results per page.
- Who would benefit: probably every editor
- More comments: Thank you!

- There is a gadget for this on Wikidata: d:MediaWiki:Linkscount.js. --Matěj Suchánek (talk) 11:59, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Matěj Suchánek: Thank you, but unfortunately I can't get it to work. So you mean creating a page like this de:user:W like wiki/Linkscount.js should work? Sorry I am not so common with
.js
. Regards --W like wiki (talk) 02:38, 7 February 2023 (UTC)- Actually all you needed was to copy the code from d:MediaWiki:Gadget-linkscount.js to de:User:W like wiki/common.js. Sorry for misguidance.
- Or, now that you have already a copy locally, put there instead:
if (mw.config.get('wgCanonicalSpecialPageName') === 'Whatlinkshere') { mw.loader.load('//de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:W_like_wiki/Linkscount.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript'); }
- and remove the languages you don't need from the script. --Matěj Suchánek (talk) 07:15, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
