User talk:117Avenue/RemoveRollback
Latest comment: 10 years ago by 117Avenue
117Avenue, why would this be preferable over using the code offered on Bugzilla:46412:
// Remove [rollback]
$('span.mw-rollback-link').remove();
Just curious.. :) Technical 13 (talk) 02:08, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
- Mostly because that code wasn't available at Wikipedia:User scripts. I didn't know how to remove it, so I figured out myself a code that worked. Also, I like knowing what's the top revision. 117Avenue (talk) 02:18, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
- Okay, but you yourself link to Wikipedia:Rollback in your page description which in turn has a section Wikipedia:Rollback#Accidental use of rollback with a final comment of "Note: it is possible to hide the [rollback] links at Special:Watchlist, which is the source of most accidental uses, while leaving [rollback] links available in other locations (e.g., diffs). See here for instructions." and clicking the here link takes you to Wikipedia:Customizing watchlists#Remove or modify the [rollback] link which offers both CSS and jQuery methods to hide those links. ;)
- Also, as a side note, having a rollback link does not make the edit the most current one but all most current revisions should already have a
<span class="mw-uctop">(current)</span>on Special:Contributions where top edits might be important to know. Anyways. I'm glad that you got some scripting experience and other knowledge out of this, and feel free to ask on any relevant talk page (including mine) or on WP:VPT if you have any further similar questions on how things work... There are tons of good editors around that would be happy to help. Technical 13 (talk) 02:51, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
