README

Field name in card deletion message

Rationale

Let's say you use the "empty cards" action. It shows a messages of the form:

Empty card numbers: 3,4 Fields: [b] / Voiced<br>Bilabial<br>Plosive / [sound:e6fa97a9bb605e35c1a6694a19f83ef3.mp3]

are not really usefull. Because I've no clue what card number 3 is. Worst, I can't even go to check, because I can't do anything until anki knows whether I want to delete those cards or not.

With this add-on, you'll instead get the message:

Empty card numbers: Example, Test, Fields: [b] / Voiced<br>Bilabial<br>Plosive / [sound:e6fa97a9bb605e35c1a6694a19f83ef3.mp3]

So you know that cards Example and Test will be deleted.

Warning

The deletion process is exactly the same as before, only the message is changed. So there should be no problem.

Internal

It changes method anki._Collection.emptyCardReport and don't call the last version of this method

Advice

Maybe think about using Delete empty new cards, so that you don't delete a card you already saw by accident
