Installation edit

To install the script, simply copy the following into your common.js page.

importScript('User:Lourdes/Backlinks.js'); // Linkback: [[User:Lourdes/Backlinks.js]]

Usage edit

Any registered user can install and use the script. The script is primarily intended for usage on article pages in the mainspace, although it can be run on non-mainspace pages too.
