Hey, Minorax and Hasley
First of all thank you for all the work in preparation of translation of SWViewer and SWViewer/header.
I am just opening this thread to track translation progress. I see that you guys are fixing little issues. Please ping me once the page is actually ready and have no issues left, so that I can announce it at various places to get translators.
I have also added you two to SWViewer/members, in case you don't want feel free to remove yourself.
To other translators or who wish to help with documentation, if you wish please add yourself to SWViewer/members too. Thanks in advance! ‐‐1997kB (talk) 13:33, 25 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Enable patrolling of the displayed edit/diff. This should be available only for patrollers (if not possible, add an option to disable it i.e. remove the button). Maybe a button for this action can be placed at the 1st position (as most of the edits are usually fine). Here's a link to the API reference: MediaWiki API help: action=patrol

defaultRollbackPrefix — is parameter for custom rollback: default prefix + custom reason. But here was used normal rollback. String is configured by the MediaWiki, not SWViewer.—Iluvatar (talk) 11:59, 24 April 2021 (UTC)Reply- UPD: see nlwiki and enwiki. You need to ask about settings of MediaWiki for nlwiki on Phabricator. Sorry for my English.—Iluvatar (talk) 12:09, 24 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
- I see, so apparently both use the same string, but the MediaWiki rollback suppresses the ping. Otherwise I would have received pings from those. So I think this is an issue with SWViewer. --bdijkstra (talk) 12:52, 24 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
- Bdijkstra, No MediaWiki doesn't supress pings. I get them all the time when people revert to my edits. I guess it's depends upon notification settings. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 16:39, 24 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
- This isn't about user A receiving a ping when user B reverts their edit, this is about user C receiving a ping when user B reverts an edit by user A to the last revision by user C. In my notification settings, I have mention pings turned on, but I haven't received this kind of ping in ages, except recently with SWViewer. Presumably this user had the same experience. --bdijkstra (talk) 16:54, 24 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

See diff on English Wikipedia: it's a list, so a blank line in between the list items ends the list and starts a new one, instead of adding an item to the list. This is minor, but it'd be nice if it was fixed. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 05:06, 23 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

- @Tol Seems no issues and these are unbulleted list after all and I think some noticeboard prefer newline and that's why it was added. (Don't remember exactly which require it). ‐‐1997kB (talk) 14:18, 20 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
- @1997kB, this is per English Wikipedia's w:en:WP:LISTGAP guideline section and for accessibility in general; this is problematic because it creates a new list instead of adding another item to the existing list. Would there be any way to change this just for English Wikipedia? Tol (talk | contribs) @ 00:11, 21 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hello! I feel like SWViewer shouldn't show edits to Custom Javascript and CSS pages since the majority of users can't do anything to them and it requires them to be an interface administrator. Including them in the SWViewer feed feels rather pointless if the majority of users can't do anything about them even if they're vandalism.

- @Blaze Wolf On the English wikipedia if you come across inappropriate content in a user CSS or JS page you should place a speedy deletion tag on the associated talk page. 192.76.8.74 10:04, 15 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

I wish SWViewer could be able to remove from the queue edits that have already been rolled back by other good-faith users or bots, so as not to stumble upon irrelevant cases of vandalism.

- It's impossible. Too much load on the device, network and server. Every X seconds scan all queue for each user.—Iluvatar (talk) 05:56, 15 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
- That's not entirely correct. If you enable "live updates" in the recent changes list and filter for "latest revision" vandalism (enwiki example), it does this just fine, so it's not just possible but rather already implemented in production somewhere.

The edit summary generated by SWViewer unnecessarily contains "(level 1)", "(level 2)" or similar. This can be improved by replacing - "Message related to your edit (level 1)" by "Message related to your edit";
- "Message related to your edit (level 2)" by "Caution";
- "Message related to your edit (level 3)" by "Warning"; and
- "Message related to your edit (level 4)" by "Final warning".
The current wording might confuse new users, and it might encourage them to test which level comes next (RPG style).

It can be easy to "get lost" in the stream. Can we implement a popup that notifies you to take a break after a certain (programmable) amount of time has passed? This feature is becoming increasingly common in certain websites/apps and I believe it helps with mental health. Having a way to artificially slow down the stream could also be helpful. Personally speaking, it generates anxiety for me.

- it can be same as sleep(); function or anything similar. 🌸 Sakura emad 💖 (talk) 09:26, 15 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
- Sakura emad, I suppose in a typical sleep function you'd get something like this: get all edits from the stream in that moment, sleep for 5 seconds, get all edits that happened during those 5 seconds up until that moment, sleep for 5 seconds, get all edits...
While what I'm mostly after is: Get precisely 1 edit, sleep for 5 seconds, get 1 edit that is known that it isn't acted upon by anyone at the time shown, sleep for 5 seconds, get 1 edit that is known that... — Klein Muçi (talk) 09:40, 15 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

When tagging a page on any wiki for deletion, SWViewer gives the user a bunch of set reasons for the tagging. Often, though, it would be quite helpful and convenient if it allowed entering a reason manually instead of having to "edit" the page to do so. Similar to how undoing with reason works, I think this will be useful.
--Svartava (talk) 16:30, 19 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

- I'd love for this feature to be implemented. Many times I'm forced to give "empty page" as a delete reason when pages are very short but not empty because "very short page" doesn't exist as a reason on its own for many projects. - Klein Muçi (talk) 15:31, 3 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

As a user I rely heavily on tooltips everywhere to understand what button does what. Currently SWViewer is well-supported in that direction beside only a few that are missing. The presets' chevron, plus, pencil and bin have no tooltip provided. The small icons at the bottom beside "Connected to stream" have no tooltips either, making it hard for me to understand what each of them means.

Scenario: Edit limit=100; Days limit=5 - User X has more than 5 days of experience but less than 100 edits. Their edits are shown. They shouldn't be. This already happened here (check bottom) and it seems like a problem that is shared with all SWViewer preferences (check "Language set" doesn't work when "small wikis" and/or "additional wikis" are enabled" bug above).
Klein Muçi (talk) 18:42, 3 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

- Yes. I was the "affected" user. Of course we could resolve the problem via Wikivoyage's talk page, but @Klein Muçi at first reverted my edits as they were showing as new (or can one say sus?). I haven't made 100 edits to en:wikivoyage, that is correct, but my first edit - even beyond the User and talk namespaces - was definitely more than five days old. Through this bug/mistake, my edits showed up and were reverted as I only made some minuscule edits including changing a population number (like vandals seemingly do?)...

Global Rollbacker have the ability to mark rollbacks as botedits. This is quite helpful to not spam watchlists. I want to suggest to mark rollbacks with no reason (“r”) for all projects automatically (maybe after activating it in the settings) as bot edits. Or implement another button for Markbotedit-rollback with a new shortcut.

The smaller a change (e.g. only whitespace, comma or such), the harder it is to find it in the diff view. The background colour should gradually intensify with decreasing amount of changed characters, so small changes are more visible.
