Force ltr forces left-to-right layout and editing on right-to-left wikis. This resolves editing glitches in many browsers when one's preferred language is left-to-right, and corrects display when the interface language is not right-to-left. This script is compatible with all Wikimedia skins.

Force ltr

Installation edit

  1. Copy the following code to your global.js page (for all wikis) or your common.js page (for Meta only).
    /**
     * Forces left-to-right layout and editing on RTL wikis.
     * @see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Force_ltr
     * @update-token [[File:pathoschild/forceltr.js]]
     */
    mw.loader.load('//tools-static.wmflabs.org/meta/scripts/pathoschild.forceltr.js');
    
  2. Refresh your browser to reload the JavaScript. (In Chrome or Firefox, press [CTRL] and [R] at the same time.)
