This is a collection of userscripts that can be used with greasemonkey type browser addons for Firefox, Chrome, etc., to make the Interwebs "better".
The scripts performs various tweaks to pages on sites that are used or visited on a regular basis.
Script | Site | Description |
---|---|---|
ebird-recent-visits.user.js | ebird.org | Fix styling; open checklists in tabs, etc. |
ebird-checklist.user.js | ebird.org | Move presence counts to end of list, etc. |
wos-hammer.user.js | wingsoverscotland.com | Hide comments from selected visitors |
For the eBird Recent Visits page for a location or region, e.g. Lisboa, Portugal this script reduces clutter and make it easy to go through all the checklists to find out what people have seen:
-
the site stylesheet uses the same colour for visited links, this script changes them to orange so you can easily see which checklists you have looked at.
-
add link to temporarily hide all the checklists for a given observer.
-
temporarily hide all checklists where the name contains coordinates. Often these are for one-time or personal locations and don't often contain many observations of interest.
-
clicking on the date to display the checklist opens it in a new tab. That way you can open several checklists at one and avoid having to click back to reload the page, which takes several seconds.
For the eBird Checklists e.g. Passeio do Parque, Sacavém, Lisboa, PT this script tidies up the list so it is easier to read:
-
species where only the presence was indicated, i.e. there is no count, are moved out of the way, to the end of the list.
-
the Age & Sex table which is mostly not of interest, is hidden.
Not every person who comments on Wings Over Scotland has something interesting or useful to say. This script adds a hide button next to each commenter so you can hide all their comments - alas, until you visit the site again.
The scripts for eBird can be found on OpenUserJS when you do a search with the eBird keyword. You can also find them on GreasyFork when you list all the scripts for the eBird site.
The WOS Hammer script is not hosted anywhere, other than here.
