I also made Pikan with flexibility in mind. Feel free to grab the script and change it to your own will. I even added Greasemonkey information so you can run it as a Greasemonkey script. If you want to add the script to your wiki, you can change the problems and matches it checks for simply by editing the pikan.find_problems function. Quick guide:
I also made Pikan with flexibility in mind. If you want to add the script to your wiki, follow these steps:


* Change <code>pikan.url</code> to point to your wiki. This is used for the "[More info]" links.
* Create your own copy of [[MediaWiki:Gadget-Pikan-pikipedia.js|Gadget-Pikan-pikipedia.js]] (naming it whatever you want).
* Change the first few parameters to match your wiki (e.g. wiki_url, module_name, etc.).
* Edit pikan.find_problems to your suiting.

** To find a simple problem with regex, do it like this:

:* There are more helper functions in the code. I documented all of them. At the end, you'll find code that's more or less Pikipedia-specific, so you can probably delete that.
:* There are more helper functions in the code. I documented all of them. Use those as well, if needed.
* If your wiki has the [[mw:Extension:Gadgets|Gadgets extension]] installed, then add an entry for Pikan to your MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition page:
<pre>* Pikan[ResourceLoader|default|actions=edit]|Pikan-core.js|Pikan-website.js</pre>
And create your own version of [[MediaWiki:Gadget-Pikan-core.js]] by copying its contents or adding just the following line:
<pre>mw.loader.load('https://www.pikminwiki.com/MediaWiki:Gadget-Pikan-core.js?action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');</pre>
* If your wiki doesn't have the Gadgets extension, then on your wiki's MediaWiki:Common.js, import Pikan like so:
<pre>if (mw.config.get('wgAction') === 'edit' || mw.config.get('wgAction') === 'submit') {
  mw.loader.getScript('https://www.pikminwiki.com/MediaWiki:Gadget-Pikan-core.js?action=raw&ctype=text/javascript').then(
    function() {
      mw.loader.load('//your.wiki/url/MediaWiki:Gadget-Pikan-website.js?action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');
    }
  );
}</pre>
Update the second URL to point to the raw source of your own version of Gadget-Pikan-pikipedia.js (again, named whatever it is you wanted).

;Why do I have to press search again every time I make a change?
;Why do I have to press search again every time I make a change?
:Because the positions of the old problem matches will be changed when you edit, and there's no reasonable way to keep track of them as you add and delete text.

;Why can't I see the scan button, or why am I using an older version?
:Pikan should update automatically, but you might be on a cached version of the page that's using old versions of the scripts. You can refresh and skip the cache (normally by pressing Ctrl+F5), or you can add "&debug=true" to the end of the page's URL.
