Bharatwiki Socrates: Create Bharat Mitra gadget page (English port)

2026-11-01T04:18:48Z

Create Bharat Mitra gadget page (English port)

New page

<div style="background: linear-gradient(135deg, #1e3a8a, #2563eb 60%, #0284c7); border-radius: 10px; padding: 22px 20px; text-align: center; margin-bottom: 18px;">
<span style="font-size: 210%; font-weight: bold; color: #ffffff;">★ Bharat Mitra</span><br/>
<small style="color: #dbeafe;">Tools for welcomes, warnings, speedy deletion nominations and reports</small>
</div>

'''Bharat Mitra''' is an optional gadget that lets you do everyday editing and maintenance work from a single menu, in English dialogs, without leaving the page. It is built around English Bharatpedia's own policies and templates.

== What it does ==

{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;"
! Part !! Where it appears !! What it does
|-
| '''Welcome''' || User and user talk pages || Adds a welcome message at the end of a new user's talk page. For anonymous (IP) users the Welcome-anon template is used. There is also an option to add a personal message.
|-
| '''Warning''' || User and user talk pages || 10 types (vandalism, advertising, unsourced edits, personal attacks, harassment, copyright, test edits, point of view, page blanking, username), using the uw-* templates with levels 1, 2, 3, 4 and 4im where the series offers them. It reads the warnings already on the talk page and automatically suggests the next level. The warning goes under this month's section.
|-
| '''Speedy deletion''' || Article, file, template, category and redirect pages || Tags the page with a db-* template chosen from the [[Bharatpedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion criteria]] and also notifies the creator.
|-
| '''Automatic links''' || Article pages || Suggests [[ ]] links for words in the text that have articles of their own. Headings, existing links, templates and references are not touched; only the first occurrence of each word is linked. The editor picks from the list which links are actually applied.
|-
| '''Report''' || All pages || Adds a report as a new section on the [[Bharatpedia:Administrators' noticeboard]]: vandalism, spam or advertising, offensive username, suspected sockpuppetry, a page protection request, or another administrator matter.
|-
| '''Revert / Undo''' || All pages || Reverts the most recent editor's consecutive edits with Rollback, or one chosen revision with Undo. When an old revision is opened from the history, a "Restore this revision" bar appears by itself at the top of the page, from which that revision can be made current with one confirmation.
|-
| '''Deletion discussion''' || Article, file, template, category and redirect pages || Puts the deletion notice on the page, creates a discussion page at [[Bharatpedia:Articles for deletion]], adds the nomination to the day's log and notifies the creator.
|-
| '''Protection request''' || All pages || Sends a page protection request, with the level and duration, to [[Bharatpedia:Requests for page protection]].
|-
| '''Redirect tools''' || All pages || Fixes double redirects in one go, changes the target of a redirect, and shows the list of broken redirects.
|-
| '''Block''' || User pages (administrators only) || Blocks a user with a duration, reason and options, and posts a notice on the talk page.
|-
| '''Batch delete''' || All pages (administrators only) || Deletes the pages in a list one by one at a slow pace; a stop facility is included.
|-
| '''Settings''' || All pages || Your preferences: the default warning level, the default for creator notification, and whether a preview is always required. Preferences are saved under your user page.
|}

== Safety rules ==

* Nothing happens without a '''preview and a confirmation'''. The preview is shown first; the edit is made only when you press "Confirm".
* Every edit carries a clear edit summary, so the history shows what was done and why.
* The wrong option never appears on the wrong page: the menu only offers options suited to the type of page.
* Speedy deletion only nominates; deleting the page remains an administrator's job.

== How to enable it ==

This gadget is not switched on automatically for every user. To enable it:

# Open [[Special:Preferences|your preferences]].
# Choose the '''[https://en.bharatpedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets Gadgets]''' tab at the top.
# In the editing tools section, tick the checkbox next to '''Bharat Mitra'''.
# Press '''Save''' at the bottom.
# Reload any page. The '''★ Bharat Mitra''' button will appear in the toolbar at the top of the page.

To turn it off, untick the same box and save.

== How to use it ==

# On any page, press the '''★ Bharat Mitra''' button.
# Choose the task from the list (for example "Warn" on a user talk page).
# Fill in the details in the window that opens and press '''Show preview'''.
# If the preview looks right, press '''Confirm'''. The edit will be made and a notice will be shown.

On mobile, if the button is not in the toolbar, you will find the blue '''★ Bharat Mitra''' button at the bottom right of the page.

* Speedy deletion criteria: [[Bharatpedia:Criteria for speedy deletion]]
