Displaying error messages

Currently, two

user scripts
relatively reliably detect errors

as well as a third experimental method based on customizing a

.css
page. The three methods are

Method 1 – Automatic script installation
Go in the 'Gadgets' tab of your preferences and select the 'Install scripts without having to edit JavaScript files' option at the bottom of the 'Advanced' section.
Click on the 'Install' button in at the top of either User:Svick/HarvErrors.js, or User:Trappist the monk/HarvErrors.js
Method 2 – Manual script installation
Go to Special:MyPage/common.js and add any of
importScript('User:Svick/HarvErrors.js'); // Backlink: [[User:Svick/HarvErrors.js]]
importScript('User:Trappist the monk/HarvErrors.js'); // Backlink: [[User:Trappist the monk/HarvErrors.js]]
in your
skin
.
Method 3 – .css code for error messages emitted by the short-cite templates
Error messages are emitted by the various short-cite templates via
false-positive error messages along with valid error messages. For this reason, no-target error messages are hidden by default. To show these hidden error messages, include the following text in your common.css page or your specific skin.css
page:
.harv-error {display: inline !important;} /* display Module:Footnotes errors */
Error message display may be enabled in the future.
