Using Phabricator would still mean that xTools developers need to be in two places at once since all the source code is on GitHub. That's why reports are allowed at either. If the goal is to centralize everything to one place, GitHub makes the most sense to me since the code is there.

I looked at this when I was first added and it appeared to just be a little lag between DBs. The results I got were much closer to on-wiki result only off by a very small amount I attributed to deleted edits.

Yep. That's why I killed the webservice for it the other day. It's not something that is going to happen soon based on our current levels of free time. I got midterms in a week, so cramming for that.
The webservice was stopped a couple days ago until it can be worked on by someone.

Sorry @EoRdE6, still trying to wrap my head around the consensus. It looks like the consensus is to just completely remove the ability to make text bigger. The alternative might be to add support for big tags as an xml object. Not sure if I want to do that either. Have to think about it a little more.
If it's Yandex's problem, then lets close it.

@Mlaffs You would have assumed very wrong... From my understanding, the job queue is not a linear, easy to follow thing. Changing a template with 50K transclusions does not mean 50K jobs will be added in any specific order. It actually creates a job, that creates jobs based on a bunch of different factors and variables and then runs through those jobs to decide what jobs need jobs and what order to do them in. Then, once it finishes one of the jobs that decides what jobs to run, it creates more jobs to see if the jobs are actually done or if they need to be run again and it makes more jobs based on that including a job that reorders all the jobs... Or, something like that...
@ArielGlenn how are you coming up with 78 jobs? I haven't seen it go below 1.15 million. I still consider it done, but it's still a little higher than normal according to the graphs.

Technical13 added a comment to T33919: Allow posting new sections to top of page on a per-page basis.
The only question/concern about this is how is "top" defined for this patch? For AfC drafts, I can see top as defined as section 0; but for the WP:THQ, which is supposed to be top posting, top would be defined as the first section after the header which is section 1 on the page (don't think there are any header sections in templates).

Technical13 added a comment to T68078: Indicate mentions in edit preview and in "Your edit was saved" message.
Could it be implemented in a way that when the user presses "preview" it'll show up under the edit box "This edit will send notifications to User:AAA, User:BBB, ... like the edit summary does? That way people don't have to guess if it will work and don't have to hit send to see if they actually sent. They'll know before save is pressed (assuming they press preview which I'm guessing they would do if it would help them ensure important notifications are sent out). Also, it could send them a notification too so they know if they got one, everyone else probably did too.

I'd personally object to changing the color from red for talk page edits and mentions. I'd support using a more neutral color for reversions and a different color for things like page links.

Oh my. This is quit a mess. I wasn't aware of this ticket when I created XTools and started adding tickets to it. Please let me know if there is anything I need to do to clean up after myself, and I will happily do so.
I have a couple questions before I state my thoughts:
- Before this became an extension, how many people had the default on gadget disabled per wiki?
- How many people had it disabled so they could use a custom userscript instead of the gadget (such as http://enwp.org/User:Technical_13/SandBox/Gadget-mySandbox.js) to allow for preferences such as non-standard sandbox page names or custom preloads?
- Will such preferences as non-standard /SandBox page names or preload templates for new sandboxes be allowed with the extension (I'll happily file a separate ticket if so)?

I've had people hunt me down to ask me if I could write a userscript for this and I've had people say it's a great idea when I talk about it. I've never had anyone express any concerns (except for a doubter that thought it was technically impossible but thought the idea was good) or say they didn't like the idea. After all, who wants to type the same content twice or fix the same thing twice? Also, I can only imagine how many decent new editors got discouraged by not having their contributions added correctly and just gave up/walked away since "it's only Wikipedia" and "someone will eventually fix it or create it"
