Mark admins

I've made User:Minorax/markAdmin.js to indicate the rights functionaries have. Should it be moved to gadget-space so it's more visible? --Minorax (discuss • contribs) 09:21, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

@Leaderboard: for views, I think that seems reasonable. --Jules (Mrjulesd) 21:16, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

@Minorax: What does that script do? Is it just purely cosmetic? Leaderboard (discuss • contribs) 07:28, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

@Leaderboard: Yes, it's cosmetic It'll mark admins with the rights they have. e.g. since QuiteUnusual is a sysop, crat, cu and steward. Their username will appear as QuiteUnusual (A/B/CU/S). --Minorax (discuss • contribs) 07:36, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

@Minorax: I think you can go ahead then, you have interface-admin being a GS and I have no issues with your proposal. Leaderboard (discuss • contribs) 07:38, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Done and gadget seems to be working properly. Minorax (discuss • contribs) 13:30, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

@Minorax:, I take it that MediaWiki:Gadget-markAdmins-data.js will have to be kept up-to-date for this to work, right? --Jules (Mrjulesd) 13:52, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

@Mrjulesd: Yes, it'll have to be kept up-to-date. --Minorax (discuss • contribs) 14:19, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Couldnt you just check the userright of the user? I forgot exactly how to do that, but you can use js to check if a user is under certain rights, like sysop and crat. Example at User:L10nM4st3r/ReportUser/Beta.js#109, although checking if the user is blocked, if you check the output on an admin, you should see the userrights. ^{— L10nM4st3r} / _{ROAR at me!} 08:57, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
