This script adds a button lets you scan the page title for non-latin characters and alerts you with their Unicode code. This should help when patrolling redirects to catch WP:MIXEDSCRIPT violations.

Installation

[edit]

Add the following to your common.js or global.js:

mw.loader.load('//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Squawk7700/ASCII_checker.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.
