List Entry Annotator is a script that allows you to annotate lists in a flash! What does that mean? Well, it fetches the first paragraph from the corresponding article and places it in the list that you are annotating.

Create lists like so:

* [[listItemA]]
* [[listItemB|listItemBname]]

Then click on List Entry Annotator in the More portlet and be blown away by the results! (Blown away not mandatory.) Note: the script is activated while viewing a page, and not while editing it. The result it:

  • listItemA – listItemA is so and so ...
  • listItemBname – listItemB (aka listItemBname) is listItemA's best buddy. They have a beer (always a windhoek) together every wednesday night at Barney's.

The script will first show you a preview of the changes it will make. At the top of the page, click Submit to proceed or Cancel.

To use this script, add the following to your common.js:

mw.loader.getScript("/w/index.php?title=User:Guywan/Scripts/LEA.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript"); // Backlink: [[User:Guywan/Scripts/LEA.js]]
