[edit]
{{edit protected}} The gadgets definition currently lists…
- FlatSidebar[ResourceLoader|top|dependencies=jquery.cookie,jquery.tabIndex,jquery.throttle-debounce|skins=vector]|FlatSidebar.js|FlatSidebar.css
- CollapsibleNav[ResourceLoader|top|dependencies=jquery.cookie,jquery.tabIndex,jquery.throttle-debounce|skins=vector|type=general]|CollapsibleNav.js|CollapsibleNav.css
…(my emphasis) as dependencies, but neither gadget actually uses the jquery.throttle-debounce library (none of them call either of $.debounce() or $.throttle()), so the dependency is incorrect.
In addition to being wasteful and contributing to poor performance for all users, jquery.throttle-debounce is in the process of being deprecated (see phab:T213426) with the net result that it is generating a deprecation warning message in the javascript console. The dependency (the bolded bit) should therefore be removed. --Xover (talk) 08:08, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- Krinkle has removed this and an equally unused dependency on jquery.tabIndex. --Xover (talk) 06:56, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
JavaScript enabled in the Site gadget[edit]
@Inductiveload: Are you aware that enabling JS for the Site gadget also disables it completely for users without JavaScript enabled (e.g. users of ancient browsers and security-minded users who explicitly disable JS), and delays the styles’ loading even for users with JS enabled? I don’t know what this gadget does, but for a gadget named “Site” I assume that the CSS is not only for content created by the JS. Please consider using a peer gadget to keep the styles work as before. —Tacsipacsi (talk) 21:26, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Tacsipacsi: I was not aware of that. I've made it a peer gadget called Site-styles. It seems to work for me with JS off, can you please check it? Thank you for the heads up, much appreciated.
- FYI, the Site gadget now also contains the JS which produces the page footers, which has just been moved out of Mediawiki:Common.js. Inductiveload—talk/contribs 21:40, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
