This script adds various classes to the link elements based on various characteristics:
You can then add CSS rules to apply various visible changes to the different types of links. A number of default rules are available inUser:Anomie/linkclassifier.css.
To use the script, add the following to yourskin-specific Javascript file.
importScript('User:Anomie/linkclassifier.js');// Linkback: [[User:Anomie/linkclassifier.js]]importStylesheet('User:Anomie/linkclassifier.css');// Linkback: [[User:Anomie/linkclassifier.css]]
Note that this script has only been extensively tested on Monobook.
If you want to adjust the list of categories, a hook is provided for that purpose:
mw.hook('LinkClassifier').add(function(linkClassifier){linkClassifier.cats['my-code']=['Category:Foo','Category:Bar'].sort();});importScript('User:Anomie/linkclassifier.js');// Linkback: [[User:Anomie/linkclassifier.js]]importStylesheet('User:Anomie/linkclassifier.css');// Linkback: [[User:Anomie/linkclassifier.css]]
If you want it to be run on demand (i.e. by clicking a button next to "unwatch"), include it something like this:
LinkClassifierOnDemand=true;importScript('User:Anomie/linkclassifier.js');// Linkback: [[User:Anomie/linkclassifier.js]]importStylesheet('User:Anomie/linkclassifier.css');// Linkback: [[User:Anomie/linkclassifier.css]]$.when(mw.loader.using('mediawiki.util'),$.ready).then(function(){varel=mw.util.addPortletLink('p-cactions','','Link Classifier');$(el).on('click',function(e){LinkClassifier.onDemand();e.preventDefault();});});
In either case, the line for linkclassifier.css may be omitted, if you would rather add custom CSS rules to yourskin-specific CSS file.
Please note that the line for linkclassifier.cssdoes not go in yourskin.css, it goes in yourskin.js along with the other lines. Alternatively, you can copy thecontents ofUser:Anomie/linkclassifier.css into yourskin.css and customize the rules however you would like.
