- Should be used only for Croatian settlements that have a standalone {{Location map}} template in them (i.e. it is not embedded in a table or something like that).
- The script is based on regex matching so not all conversions will succeed, depending on formatting. If that's the case, the script will do nothing.
- After a successful conversion, a diff will automatically be displayed. If this is annoying, I could make it user-customizable.
- Also, edit summary is auto-populated. Ditto.
- {{coord}}, if present, is not touched. Infobox coordinates are always displayed inline, while title coordinates are set by {{coord}}, if it exists. This is perhaps not ideal.
- I'll write the docs with more details soon; in the meantime, you can complain here. :-D GregorB (talk) 21:49, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
- Oh yeah, these articles are the candidates. GregorB (talk) 21:59, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
- I opened Adamovec in edit mode, and clicked on the newly listed "Convert Location map to Infobox settlement" tool item, but nothing happened. Can you add a few alert()s in the various else cases so that it becomes obvious what went wrong? --Joy (talk) 16:27, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
- Yup, Adamovec is precisely the reason why I noted that the script does not always work. I've just managed to make it work for Adamovec by "cheating" (manually deleting the
|label= beforehand). I could add the alert, but either the script worked (diff is displayed) or it didn't, in which case I could only say that Location map was not detected - or? GregorB (talk) 17:26, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, do that, make it explicit, anything is better than clicking and having nothing happen :) I see it now, the logic is too simplistic - it would be better if we first found e.g. {{ocation map*\|(+)}} in the text, and then parsed $1 from that to find the parameters we want. --Joy (talk) 18:36, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
- Well, it is simplistic, as I wanted to avoid both parsing and monstrous REs. I'm considering ignoring the
|caption= parameter (might be as well hardcoded to "Location of Foo in Croatia") and extracting only latitude and longitude, that could be simpler and more reliable.
- I'll add an alert for an unsuccessful run. GregorB (talk) 18:54, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
