Description

(Similar to T304151:)

Due to https://bn.wikisource.org/wiki/মিডিয়াউইকি:Common.js having the line
mw.loader.load('//bn.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=User:Bodhisattwa/cleanup.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');, https://bn.wikisource.org/wiki/User:Bodhisattwa/cleanup.js is loaded for anyone by default.
This means bn.wikisource.org always loads the following external resources:

As this is not the first task involving the use of @Pathoschild's script, you may wish to complain to that user that people find those scripts useful enough to consider them a default staple for others.

In any case, the offending scripts have been migrated on-wiki where they may safely go out of sync.

(And no, you need not repeat T304107#7787150 to me again.)

@Mahir256: That makes no sense at all.

Let me rephrase, then: please tell that user "Would you mind re-hosting all of your scripts on Meta, rather than on wmflabs, and adjust your documentation to follow suit, given that people find those scripts so extremely useful that they enable them for everyone, even with the apparently mistaken assumption that wmflabs is a production server?"

@RhinosF1 Oh wow, very sorry about that; these too have been addressed I think. (Unless of course accesses to "upload.wikimedia.org" also count as requiring user consent.)

I have no objections to moving the scripts to pages on Meta; we'll just need to decide if they'd be gadgets or regular user scripts. It does seem weird to me that the cutting edge of production scripting is still saving scripts on wiki pages instead of using the tools-static Wikimedia CDN though.
