Important: as of May 2025 this script has a bug where it interfers with XFD closer if you are closing a discussion immediately before one which the script highlights. It will attempt to bundle the following discussion into the close as well - this can be avoided by checking carefully to make sure that the number of pages it claims to be closing is equal to the number which you expect, but I don't recommend using the script until I've ironed that out since it can result in unintentionally deleting pages if you aren't sufficiently careful.
Inspired by my terror of somehow managing to miss that I started an RfD and do a WP:INVOLVED close, this user script highlights all XfD discussions which you were part of in any capacity except relisting, and provides a button in the bottom left corner to instead hide all these discussions from the page.
Note that this works by finding links to your userpage or talk page, so if you were pinged or otherwise linked to in a discussion then it will be highlighted, and if your signature contains neither of those links it will not be.
This has been tested on Firefox for RfD and AfD. If you see anything weird, let me know at my talk page.
This script also works at Commons deletion requests, but you will need to install it separately there.
