Preamble: beta status

This is a relatively fresh tool page on Wikimedia’s Tool Labs server.

In the past years, I have regulary used a bunch of different self-developed scripts to make many of my edits actually possible. I ran these scripts on a local webserver, which is rather inefficient for several reasons. Since their functionality might be interesting for other users as well, I now decided to move to Wikimedia’s Tool Labs server instead.

However, I expect that most of my scripts need an entire re-write, thus it will take some time until something useful is available here. I am also new here on Tool Labs, thus there are a couple of things to learn in the beginning. Stay tuned! —MisterSynergy
