Unpipe
Description	Converts each piped link to a non-piped one if both lead to the same article
Updated	June 10, 2024 (27 days ago)
Browser support	Chrome, Firefox, etc. (ES2017+ needed)
Source	User:Nardog/Unpipe.js

This script adds a button to the sidebar that converts piped links to non-piped ones where doing so does not change the destination of the link, to comply with WP:NOPIPE and WP:NOTBROKEN. That is, if both "Foo" and "bar" in [[Foo|bar]] lead to the same article or section directly or indirectly (i.e. through a redirect or not), it's converted to [[bar]]. Links to non-main namespaces and to redirects ending in " (disambiguation)" will not be replaced. The button is available only in source mode (not 2017 editor).

Installation[edit]

Add the following to your common.js:

mw.loader.load('//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Nardog/Unpipe.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');

Or you may enable the script installer in Preferences → Gadgets and click "Install" in the infobox on this page.

Acknowledgements[edit]

This script relies on Pathoschild's TemplateScript framework.
