    Request for feature for AFC Helper Script

    To assist in using the "ping" function in AFC comments or custom-decline messages, please list the first editor of the page plus all editors who have submitted the page in the past. I view this as a "low-risk-of-breaking-things" request.

    Alternatively, modify the "decline" message template to include the name and date of the submission that is being declined. To avoid having a an editor feel "ashamed" at seeing his name in the pink box, this probably should be hidden behind a "show/hide" template of some type. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 17:48, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

    Blank the Submission

    Am I the only one who finds when checking Blank the Submission on an article, the script freezes up and never goes all the way through the steps to actually blank the page and put up the speedy deletion tag? LionMans Account (talk) 01:39, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

    Request custom decline reason change

    When using a custom decline reason, provide a way to pre-fill it with one or more of the canned reasons.

    The simplest way to do it would be for the helper script (NOT the decline template!) to link to a single static page (or perhaps even the actual code) that had the wiki-markup for all of the custom-decline reasons listed in a single location, so reviewers could copy-and-paste them from that location into our custom decline reason ourselves.

    The idea is that if I want to provide a "customized" version of one or more of the canned decline reasons but keep it looking "nearly identical" to the boilerplate reasons, it should be easy for me to do so.

    There are of course other ways to do this, but since a simple, low-risk-of-breaking-things way exists, I'll ask you to get at least something this simple in the next alpha release and hopefully have it in the production code whenever the upcoming alpha release makes its way into production. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 16:53, 21 April 2014 (UTC)

    Bug?

    I started using AFCH a few days ago, without adding myself to the participants list. Then today a message appeared in the top right corner saying that I couldn't use the tool because I wasn't on the list. I've joined now, but is this a bug letting non-participants use AFCH? --AmaryllisGardener 17:42, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
