Remember, JavaScript can be used maliciously; please make sure you trust the source of any JS you're copying to your wiki! A protected namespace on the wiki.gg Support Wiki should be safe, but it's still a good idea to check the version history and make sure there aren't any suspect recent changes (e.g., if someone's account was compromised). |
