== WikiBlame broken? ==

[https://wikipedia.ramselehof.de/wikiblame.php WikiBlame] seems to be broken. I almost always get "Your search term was not found at all. Check the settings and try again." I tried different search terms, different pages, different wikis, searching for wikitext or full text. Always the same result. It's been like this for a couple of days now, maybe a week. (Half an hour ago, it seemed to be working for a few minutes, but now it's broken again.) I also opened a [https://github.com/FlominatorTM/wikiblame/issues/61 GitHub issue]. — [[User:Chrisahn|Chrisahn]] ([[User talk:Chrisahn|talk]]) 23:39, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
:An example article and search text that failed would be useful. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 06:48, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
::I just visited [[John Draper]] and clicked "Find addition/removal" in history, then entered {{tq|software engineer}} in 'Search for' and pressed Enter. In under a minute it found the addition on 02 March 2025. That is, it works for me. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 06:53, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
:::Thanks for your response! There's been an overlap, @[[User:Flominator|Flominator]] fixed the issue about an hour before you tested it. Thanks! — [[User:Chrisahn|Chrisahn]] ([[User talk:Chrisahn|talk]]) 09:02, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
{{Done}} Fixed, see GitHub issue. — [[User:Chrisahn|Chrisahn]] ([[User talk:Chrisahn|talk]]) 09:03, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
:Thanks for reporting that and getting it fixed. Apparently the fix was to set the newly required user agent. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 10:08, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
::I'm surprised anybody is still using WikiBlame. I recommend installing the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Who_Wrote_That%3F Who Wrote That?] extension instead, it's so much better and saves a lot of time. Am I right, [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]]?

:::WWT does not work outside of mainspace last I checked. Wikiblame, and [[User:Daniel Quinlan/Scripts/Blame]], do not have this limitation. [[User:Izno|Izno]] ([[User talk:Izno|talk]]) 21:15, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
::::I've been using [[:w:de:Benutzer:Schnark/js/wikiblame]] which appears to be similar to that Blame script.<span id="Qwerfjkl:1773700075475:WikipediaFTTCLNVillage_pump_(technical)" class="FTTCmt"> —&nbsp;[[User:Qwerfjkl|<span style="background:#1d9ffc; color:white; padding:5px; box-shadow:darkgray 2px 2px 2px;">Qwerfjkl</span>]][[User talk:Qwerfjkl|<span style="background:#79c0f2;color:white; padding:2px; box-shadow:darkgray 2px 2px 2px;">talk</span>]] 22:27, 16 March 2026 (UTC)</span>
:::{{ping|Bishonen}} My life is sufficiently exciting without trying new things! But maybe later I'll have a look. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 00:08, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
::::{{ping|Izno}}, you're right, but I suppose you and I live different lives; I can't remember ever wanting to know when something was added ''except'' in mainspace. A problem for others, though, may be that Who Wrote That? only works (or is only optimized for, whatever) Chrome and Firefox. {{ping|Johnuniq}}, once you've tried WWT, you'll find digging through WikiBlame almost intolerably unexciting.
