CopiedTemplateEditor (or CTE) allows users to graphically edit a talk page's {{copied}} templates. This is mainly for CCI case handlers who have to deal with mass intrawiki copying, but can be used by anyone who interacts frequently with {{copied}} templates.

Dedicated to the hardworking WikiProject Copyright Cleanup members.

Installation

To install the script, add this to your common.js file.

mw.loader.load( '/w/index.php?title=User:Chlod/Scripts/CopiedTemplateEditor-loader.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript' ); // Backlink: [[User:Chlod/Scripts/CopiedTemplateEditor-loader.js]]

This will run a lightweight loader for the editor on every page load. This ensures that the main components of CTE are only loaded when you need it. When you click on the "{{copied}} Template Editor" option on the "Tools" list at the side of the page or when you click on the edit button on a {{copied}} template, the main components (found in User:Chlod/Scripts/CopiedTemplateEditor-core.js) are loaded and run.

You may optionally load the core script instead to make opening the dialog faster, but this is only recommended for high-speed connections with minimal ping to Wikimedia servers.
