Description billinghurst 2014-06-05 00:17:08 UTC
It would be useful to have the ability for [[Special:UnconnectedPages]] to be able to be filtered by namespace.

At present it appears to sort by {namespace number, "[0-9][a-z]} with main namespace first, and in English Wikisource that is less than convenient at this point in time (lots of subpages of works there). I have to use an offset of 321000 to get to the Author: ns pages.  

https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UnconnectedPages/&limit=500&offset=321000

As an aside The list also shows pages in namespaces that have been determined will not be listed in WD.  For enWS, an example is the Page: ns. Not sure hwo easy/hard it would be able to configure something to ignore ruled out nss.

Thanks.

Smart thinking (with elements of "d'oh!")

Then maybe we would do well to try and have something as default text added into [[MediaWiki:wikibase-unconnectedpages-summary]] that maybe automatically populate local user namespaces with their local names done dynamically.

Having something helpful that locals can better adapt is better than nothing (IMNSHO).

FWIW I now have

<!-- Transcludes into [[Special:UnconnectedPages]]-->
At present there is no ability to filter by namespace, so these are pointers to the start of relevant namespace sections
<div class="hlist plainlinks">
* [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|page=Category:-}} Category] 
* [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|page=Portal:-}} Portal] 
* [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|page=Author:-}} Author]
</span>
