I'm an administrator of a wiki on Wikia, and I've been trying to convert a
gadget script we use to see what alternate redirects can be used for a page
(they display in small text on the first header) so it will work on my
private test wiki.
My problem is that I'm not sure what I'm doing to be honest, as I'm an
utter novice at JSON queries and how to parse them.
Basically, I was wondering if someone could take a look at the below link
to the original gadget script and tell me how I can convert it to my test
wiki, so it will have the same behavoir it does on Wikia and work on all
basic MediaWiki skins like Monobook and Vector.
Here's the link to the script:
http://tropes.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-altredirects.js
My test wiki is running MediaWiki 1.21 and the Wikia is running a modified
fork of 1.19.6.
I don't know if the version information is helpful, but there may be some
API call or parser differences, or at least that's my guess for why I can't
get this JSON query to parse correctly.
If anyone could assist me, I would be very grateful.
