  10. Special:Lonelypages : Lonely articles.
  11. Special:Uncategorizedpages : Pages without category tags (note that after adding a tag to a page refreshing this page does not immediately reflects the change)
  12. Special:Unusedimages
  13. Special:Wantedpages : Articles which have been requested / most wanted, specifically those that have at least 2 incoming links, but do not exist.

    1. From MediaWiki 1.5 one can also select all namespaces except a specified one# thus, although one cannot have a single list of all pages, one can select a small namespace and use the invert option, to get almost all pages. Namespace prefixes are given, but the sortkey is the pagename without prefix.
  20. Special:Allmessages : Displays all pages in the MediaWiki namespace.
  21. Special:Prefixindex# if the last character of the prefix is a space or underscore it is ignored. One of many important applications is to find subpages with "fullpagename/".
  22. Special:Linksearch : Provides for each link on the wiki project the wiki page name (linked) and the full link target (also as a link). Special characters like colons not supported, leading wildcard * okay# they can represent one or more full domain name components only, e.g. *.ns.nl, *.eu.

[edit] Logs

  1. Special:Log - combined display of upload, deletion, protection, blocking, and sysop logs. You can narrow down the view by selecting a log type, the user name (case-sensitive!), or the affected page (usual case-sensitivity, but full name required, e.g. "Image:Map South Holland.png".
  2. Block log - blocks and unblocks
  3. Deletion log - deleted and undeleted pages
  4. Protection log - protected and unprotected pages
  5. Upload log - list of images uploaded

[edit] Miscellaneous

  • Special pages requiring a target page may give an error message if the target is not supplied:
Special:Recentchangeslinked/Help:Template
Special:Whatlinkshere/Help:Template

or prompt for the target if it was not supplied yet; with target the link is e.g.

Special:Linksearch/*.kennisnet.nl
  • Special pages requiring a target user:
Special:Contributions/Jimbo Wales
  • Special page allowing a starting page:
Special:Allpages/Template (Standard prefixes are ignored, compare Special:Allpages/Template:C and Special:Allpages/Templat:C)
In some cases the full URL has to be given, like an external link, for example http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Recentchanges&days=3&limit=10 (last 10 changes).
  • Redirects to Special pages have been disabled because of their complications.
  • "Special:" in URLs is e.g. "Speciaal" in Dutch, "Spezial" in German, "Speciális:" in Hungarian and "מיוחד:" in Hebrew. See e.g the prefix of "Recentchanges" in the URL of the link to the Recent changes.
  • On a special page the tab labelled with the namespace, in this case "Special Page", oddly links to the Main page.
{{Special:Newpages/5}} gives 5 new pages:
