Incident Reporting System/hi translation

Hello, thank you so much for translating Incident Reporting System/hi into Hindi! There are just a few little mistakes I'd like to point out that I hope you'll take care of in the future.

In MediaWiki and on Wikimedia, "user" is translated as "सदस्य" and not "उपयोगकर्ता"। You can refer to the Hindi MediaWiki glossary here. Also, when using first person pronouns, please include both genders of the reader. E.g. this message can be rephrased as: "मैं यह बताना चाहता/चाहती हूं कि मैं किस प्रकार की घटना से गुजर रहा/रही हूं [...]".

Lastly, when translating a list of "goals" or similar, I believe it is better to translate the list items with their "करना" forms rather than "करें" to form complete coherent sentences, i.e. "X का लक्ष्य है Y करना" is correct.

Apart from that, once again, thank you for your contributions ^^ ~ ✽ saurmanđal ✽ 17:09, 30 August 2025 (UTC)

Thankyou so much for helping. I will read the glossary and translate more accurately from next time. धन्यवाद 🙏 Dev Jadiya (talk) 17:39, 30 August 2025 (UTC)

Script Publisher

Hi Dev! Has there been any community discussion about Script Publisher? We are generally very cautious about approving OAuth apps which can edit Javascript. Tgr (WMF) (talk) 19:46, 29 October 2025 (UTC)

Hello Gergő,

Yes, Script Publisher has been discussed in the Community Wishlist Survey. You can find details at Community Wishlist 2022: A bot or gadget to publish public Git repo to a gadget or user script.

For your reference, a live demonstration of the project is also available: publisher Demo.

I am actively engaging with the original proposer, @Nux, as well as mentors from the Developer Skill Development Program India 2025, to ensure all aspects of the project are carefully reviewed and community feedback is incorporated.

Regarding OAuth permissions, I will proceed with local testing of all changes and only deploy to Toolforge after thorough review and feedback collection. If you have specific recommendations or requirements about permission scopes, please let me know. I am happy to adjust the configuration to meet WMF security standards and community expectations.

Thanks, Dev Jadiya (talk) 02:34, 30 October 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Tgr (WMF) I suggested using toolforge and OAuth to Dev to make this a more reliable place. As I understand for JS changes the application would actually use bot accounts (which can have restricted rights and can easily be revoked) and OAuth just to get the main user name and preferences and other stuff would be saved within the app (I assume some internal database)... At least that was the idea, not sure what Dev want to implement in the end. Nux (talk) 09:13, 30 October 2025 (UTC)

The current request is for an OAuth app with JS editing rights. I am not saying that's worse than other mechanisms for editing sitewide JS, but for a bot there's an established approval mechanism, and since the security risks are comparable I think we'd want a similar level of community scrutiny / support for an OAuth app (maybe via a mock bot flag request, for the lack of a better place for discussing it). Tgr (WMF) (talk) 10:37, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

Re: the updated scopes, unfortunately there is very little difference security-wise between "edit your own JS" and "edit sitewide JS". A malicious application can just put some XSS code in the user's own JS and sent the user to that wiki, and then the XSS code will make an API edit to the sitwide JS.

("Malicious application" could in practice mean a whole range of things, from "you installed malware and it stole your Toolforge password" to "your application got compromised by one of its dependencies in a supply chain attack". These risks are not the end of the world - editors who can change sitewide JS can just as easily be compromised by malware etc, it's a risk we need to live with to some extent. But in all other cases, access to site JS or another user's user JS is only given out via a community review process, be that bot approval or bureaucrat review for interface admins, and I think we should match that for OAuth permissions.) Tgr (WMF) (talk) 19:50, 2 November 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Tgr (WMF) and Nux: I have been supporting Dev as he is working on the projects, mostly navigating these processes. If I am understanding correctly, even if though it is OAuth permissions, since it includes JS editing access, it should involve a community review, rather than a single person deciding. If that's right, what would be a good place to have to that discussion, maybe Meta:Requests_for_adminship#Requests_for_bot_flags? Please let us know if there are better venues. Not a security expert, but I am also wondering if there any simple technical checks that we can include in the tool to prevent such malicious behaviour, like not allowing external domains, not allowing edit API calls to .js, .css, pages MediaWiki:, and Module: namespaces, from within the user script. KCVelaga (talk) 08:50, 3 January 2026 (UTC)

Steward_requests/Global_permissions#Requests_for_other_global_permissions I think, since permission-wise this tool will be equivalent to Global interface editors?

Trying to detect (possibly obfuscated) malicious Javascript seems like an unwinnable battle, but that's not really the risk here anyway - OAuth tools are subject to the normal permission system so users will only be able to install gadgets with the tool if they would be allowed to do the same thing manually. If someone would use the tool to install a harmful script, presumably they would/could do the same thing by hand; the tool isn't really making things worse. (Assuming the tool does not deploy JS changes without the explicit consent of the deployer, and without making it clear to the deployer exactly what changes are being deployed. Those should be requirements for such a tool, IMO.)

Rather, the risk is that the tool itself is changed (e.g. by someone hacking into the Toolforge account) to deploy different JS code than it is supposed to. So the expectations wrt. community review are similar to interface admins, I think: account security best practices, and making sure that those with developer access to the tool know what they are doing and don't leave security holes that can be used to hijack it. Tgr (WMF) (talk) 20:55, 5 January 2026 (UTC)

Hi Tgr (WMF), Nux and KCVelaga,

Following the discussion here about community review and permissions for Script Publisher, I have now opened a formal request on Steward requests for global permissions for the tool:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Steward_requests/Global_permissions#Script_Publisher_-_OAuth_Toolforge_tool_for_publishing_public_Git_repositories_to_Wikimedia_JS/CSS_pages

This request includes the project background, Toolforge deployment, source code, OAuth client, and the security model, in line with the guidance you gave earlier.

I would appreciate your review and any feedback there so we can ensure the tool meets community and WMF security expectations before OAuth approval and wider use.

Thank you all for your guidance so far. Dev Jadiya (talk) 13:41, 10 January 2026 (UTC)

Was not able to test the latest version, but I briefly went through the code. Some problems I see with that:

1. It seems to use gitingest.com to fetch repository files [1], which seems like a bad idea. If it is only used to lint files I guess that's fine, but not sure what this does.
2. Loading remote script might be problematic too (remote website code execute code in the context of the Script Publisher application). Like e.g. [2].
3. Most changes in git are not described correctly (which would make the code hard to review if that continues). E.g. changes are described "updated" and should be more like e.g. "OAuth2 support"

I never used Django though, so cannot really review the code. Nux (talk) 15:19, 10 January 2026 (UTC)

script-publisher

Hey hey! Just dropping by to ask what the status of this project is? I have had the tab open for some weeks or months ready to try it out, but I notice the OAuth isnt working etc? ·addshore· ^{talk to me!} 13:45, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

Hello Addshore, and thanks a lot for checking in — I really appreciate your interest in the project.

1. The tool is currently at a working MVP/prototype stage, including repository fetching, file selection, mapping, and preview flow. However, as you noticed, OAuth-based publishing is not fully active yet.
2. The main blocker right now is related to OAuth approval for JavaScript editing scopes. Since the tool can potentially publish to JS/CSS pages (including site-wide contexts), this requires community review and alignment with WMF security expectations (similar to bots or interface editors).
3. There is an ongoing discussion and request regarding this here: OAuth permissions discussion
4. Additionally, broader context and technical discussion can be found here: Project discussion thread

In the meantime, I am continuing to refine the tool (Toolforge deployment, Django migration, and safeguards) while working towards a model that aligns with community expectations.

If you have any suggestions — especially around safe deployment models or scope limitations — I would really value your input.

Thanks again for your patience and interest. Dev Jadiya (talk) 14:24, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

Tool to help track updates to your scripts

Hello Dev Jadiya,

I noticed that you maintain JavaScript or CSS pages in your user space. I wanted to share a small tool I’ve been working on that might be useful for your workflow.

It’s called WikiScriptSync. It monitors public GitHub or GitLab repositories for changes to .js and .css files and notifies you when something changes, so you don’t miss updates to scripts you maintain. It does not publish anything automatically; it helps you review updates manually.

You can try it here: WikiScriptSync

More details are available on Wikitech documentation.

If this seems useful, I’d be glad to hear your feedback or suggestions.

Thanks for your time, Dev Jadiya (talk) 12:52, 21 April 2026 (UTC)

WikiScriptSync: Bug report / Query

Bug report / query from Stitchbird2:

Thanks for your tool. This is not a bug but I was wondering if you were considering adding wikidata common.js pages to the tool, which would be very useful? Thanks!

— Submitted via WikiScriptSync WikiScriptSyncBot (talk) 23:16, 11 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Stitchbird2, thanks for the suggestion. Wikidata is now supported - you can paste any Wikidata page URL into the Wiki Pages monitor, or select www.wikidata.org from the dropdown when setting up a file mapping or bot credential. Let me know if anything doesn't work as expected. Dev Jadiya (talk) 13:19, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

Clip2commons bug report

Crashed twice, omce when changing licence, once when choosing category, and reset to upload screen. iPhone 13 on stable 5G. --Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 06:12, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Giantflightlessbirds, Thanks for feedback. Which browser are you using by the way. I will work on the issue and let you know. Dev Jadiya (talk) 06:21, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

Firefox for iOS; I will just try now with my laptop and see if it works better. —Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 06:50, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

Works perfectly on OSX, so must be a phone issue. NB it woud be great to have caption and SDC support, even as an option! Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 07:03, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for testing on the Mac - that confirms the tool's working and the issue is specific to iOS.

Honest note on iOS: Apple requires every iOS browser (Firefox, Chrome, Brave, all of them) to use the system WebKit engine, so Firefox for iOS behaves the same as Safari for our purposes. iOS WebKit also enforces a strict per-page memory limit; a loaded video plus the form re-rendering during license / category changes can push close to that limit on iPhone 13 (4 GB RAM).

What you saw - the page resetting to the upload screen - looks like WebKit reclaiming memory and reloading the tab.

I can mitigate this (releasing the video file reference earlier in the form-fill phase, treating iOS as memory-limited by default in the capability checks), but the underlying per-page memory cap is a platform constraint I can't lift from inside the page. Desktop will remain the most reliable path on Apple hardware until Safari 26.1 ships full WebCodecs encoder support.

On captions and SDC - really good suggestion. UploadWizard already supports multi-language captions and depicts statements via the MediaInfo entity, and clip2commons should carry the same structured layer.

Going on the roadmap.

Thanks for the careful reporting. Dev Jadiya (talk) 07:51, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

Some Clip2Commmons suggestions

I've been doing a few uploads with C2C, and really like it. I'll be demonstrating it at the Aotearoa New Zealand meetup in June and recommending people give it a try.

Some suggestions you might want to consider for the road ahead:

1. Optional caption field, to complement the description (as suggested above)
2. Optional SDC Depicts field (as suggested above)
3. Taking the date of creation from the media file metadata and preloading the date field; if no date, use today's date rather than remember the date of the previous upload
4. Have an option for manually overriding information in the Author field, so one could add a Creator: template (and have it remember the author information used in the last upload)
5. Remembering the licence used in the last upload
6. Perhaps checking the SDC "depicts" Wikidata item to see if there is a Video property (P10) already, and if not add the video to that item. Maybe a checkbox to make this happen: "□ Add this video clip to the subject's Wikidata item" This would be a very cool feature.
7. A small note beside the Date field label to make it clear it's dd/mm/yyyy
8. Perhaps making the custom licence field only appear if "Enter a different licence" is selected. Also in Commons I'm used to entering the licence with curly brackets, so perhaps keep that convention.
9. Making the clip2commons logo and title a link back to the home page.

Also a bug: my first attempt at uploading File:Ferrier_Fountain_video_MRD.webm just uploaded a 65KB file with no video, and I had to convert and upload the video manually. Not sure what happened there.

And also: I tried queuing up three video clips, but only the first one let me enter metadata; I couldn't click to switch tabs and enter different data for the other two.

Many thanks for creating this tool! I am hoping you can keep developing it into something I can point newbie Commons contributors to, as adding video seems much more approachable than adding photos for a new editor.

Thank you, @Giantflightlessbirds - this is exactly the kind of feedback that makes a tool better, and demoing it at the Aotearoa New Zealand meetup in June means a great deal. I genuinely appreciate the time you took to write this up.

Quick status on each point so you can see what's already in motion and what's queued:

Captions and Depicts

Both are now implemented in the live tool. The Caption field appears between Description and Categories; if left blank it falls back to the title so the captions panel is never empty. A "Main subjects depicted" picker writes P180 statements to the MediaInfo entity after upload. Issues for the larger SDC work (multilingual captions, plus the other structured statements UploadWizard sets) are open:

• https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/toolforge-repos/clip2commons/-/issues/3 (multilingual captions)
• https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/toolforge-repos/clip2commons/-/issues/4 (date / author / source / location as MediaInfo statements)

Pre-load creation date from media metadata

Good catch — currently we use today's date as the default rather than reading it from the file. I'll file this as its own issue today and link it back here.

Manual Author override and Creator template; remember last author

Filing today. The "remember the last author" part is a nice touch - a small localStorage of the previous values would carry across uploads without becoming a server-side preference.

Remember last license

Same - filing today. Easy win, useful for batch uploads of the same person's own work.

Add the video to the subject's Wikidata item via P10

This is a thoughtful idea and I want to think about it carefully before committing. Cross-writing to Wikidata (not just Commons) raises both a UX question (is the user clearly consenting to a Wikidata edit?) and a policy question (should every video go on the depicted item's page, or only some?). Filing as an open question so the community can weigh in.

Date field format note.

Filing - quick fix.

Custom license field visibility, and accepting curly-bracket entry

Filing. The current behavior of always rendering the input was a deliberate fix for an earlier mobile bug (auto-focusing it popped the keyboard and scrolled the form), but I can hide it behind the radio choice as long as that doesn't reintroduce the scroll issue. Allowing {{Cc-by-sa-4.0}} style entry alongside the bare template name is fair — that's the convention everywhere else on Commons.

Logo and title linking back to home

Filing. Should be a small change.

Bug

Ferrier Fountain uploaded as a 65 KB file with no video This is worrying and I want to dig into it. A 65 KB output from a file that should have produced a multi-MB WebM points to the encoder silently completing zero frames - possibly a codec mismatch the tool should have rejected up front. Could I ask: what was the source file (format, approximate size and duration), what browser, and was there an error or did the upload appear to complete? Filing this as a bug regardless.

Bug

batch queue lets you edit only the first item's metadata Confirmed - the batch list currently doesn't make items clickable to switch between them. You see the queue but only the active item's metadata is editable. That's a missing UI affordance, not a fundamental limit. Filing today.

About the hackathon

clip2commons has been listed as a project for the Indic Wikimedia Hackathon (Hyderabad, 26–28 June 2026). Your suggestions are going to become some of the actual tasks participants pick up — which means your meetup demo in June will be timed almost exactly with the hackathon week. There is a real chance some of these are addressed before your demo, and most of the rest shortly after.

I'll come back and link the new issue numbers here once filed today.

Thanks again - this kind of careful, specific feedback is the most useful thing a tool can receive, and I'm grateful you took the time. Dev Jadiya (talk) 04:29, 28 May 2026 (UTC)

Wow, I'm not used to a tool creator responding so quickly to feedback! This is really heartening, and great to see these suggestions will be included in the Hackathon.

• The Ferrier Fountain upload was one of several clips I uploaded with Firefox from my OSX photo library; the clips before were identical in source, format, size, and duration and all uploaded seamlessly. The only thing I can think of is I cropped the fountain video in Photos before uploading, but it was resaved and should not have affected the upload. There was no error message, and I only noticed the problem when the upload was done and no video, just the audio, was present.
• Perhaps the caption could go between title and description, to match the way a normal Commons upload presents them? It would be amazing if the caption was preloaded with the title text, and then the description was preloaded with the caption text (I'm forever copying and pasting the caption information into description and expanding it, becasuse a Commons upload always starts with the description blank).
• Posting the video to P10 in the depicted item's Wikidata was an idea inspired by WikiShootMe (which uploads the image to both Commons and Wikidata, but unfortunately messes up the details of the latter): in my opinion, this should be opt-in only, with a checkbox to activate; a little ? hover button that explains what they're about to do; and should only be available if there is not already a P10, so should only upload 1 clip if there's none already. But it's very much an optional extra.

Thank you for acting on all of these. Keen to see how the tool develops! Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 22:51, 28 May 2026 (UTC)

More suggestions

• The "Your recent uploads to Commons" popup shows all files, but uses a video icon for them, whether they're video or not. Perhaps make it "Video you recently uploaded to Commons" and only show .webm and .ogg files, and their length in seconds. Could it do a tiny thumbnail?
• Could there be a checkbox that turns off the audio track? Or maybe "Trim video" could be "Edit video" and could include radio buttons for ● video and audio ○ video only. —

Hi @Giantflightlessbirds, small update: filed all the remaining items as issues #13 through #17. Full list of open work is at the GitLab work items page - cross-linking so anyone watching this thread can follow along.

I'll pick up the Ferrier Fountain bug (#13) myself before your Aotearoa NZ demo since that's the one users would notice immediately - my working theory is in the issue (macOS Photos edit lists not being honored during demux). The rest are scoped for hackathon participants to take up at the end of the month.

Thanks again for the keen eye - this kind of careful feedback is genuinely the most useful thing a tool can receive. Dev Jadiya (talk) 04:27, 2 June 2026 (UTC)
