Commons:User scripts
(Redirected from Commons:JS)
Hi, interested in scripting? We need help, so do not hesitate to ask what you can do. We recommend start testing in your user-namespace (new users see basic instructions here).
We have a JavaScript styleguide, but it is a guide, not a policy. Nevertheless, consider reading the MediaWiki manual.
A list of currently available scripts can be found at Category:User scripts.
