Help:Pages spéciales

Note : si vous modifiez cette page, vous acceptez de placer votre contribution sous licence CC0. Plus d’informations sont disponibles sur le projet Aide dans le domaine public.

Les pages spéciales sont des pages créées à la demande par le logiciel. Elles se trouvent dans leur propre namespace (Special) et ne sont pas modifiables directement comme les autres pages.

Certaines pages spéciales dépendent des préférences qui ont été paramétrées par l'utilisateur, par exemple le nombre de titres affichés dans la liste de suivi de l'utilisateur.

Special pages also take parameters, e.g., Special:Log/block takes you to the log of block users.

To view a directory of all special pages, use Special:SpecialPages.

Modifier les pages de l'espace de noms Special

L'espace de noms Special: correspond aux pages spéciales générées par MediaWiki. Il n'y a pas d'espace de discussion correspondant. Les pages spéciales ne sont pas en wikitexte et ne sont donc pas modifiables comme le sont les autres pages.

Elles contiennent habituellement les messages système de l'espace de noms MediaWiki modifiables par les administrateurs d'interfaces.

The ampersand character (&) is not allowed.

Liens, transclusion ou redirection vers une page spéciale

Vous pouvez mettre un lien vers une page spéciale tout comme vous le faites pour n'importe quelle page interne; par exemple [[Special:Diff|see diff page]]. Certaines pages spéciales peuvent prendre un paramètre après le '/' ; par exemple [[Special:Diff/6372234]] fournit la valeur "123" pour $param paramètre d'URL.

Certaines pages spéciales peuvent être transcluses, d'autres non. Par exemple, vous pouvez transclure la liste des modifications récentes avec {{Special:RecentChanges}}.

Vous ne pouvez pas créer de redirection vers une page spéciale : cela affichera un lien vers la page au lieu de rediriger directement vers elle. Certaines pages spéciales ont tout de même des alias prédéfinis qui redirigent vers elles.

Links containing URL query strings

Since the ampersand (&) is not allowed, you can't create a standard link with &action=edit or &redirect=no in the URL query string.

Alias de noms de page et localisation

Contrairement aux autres espaces de noms, le titre principal des pages de l'espace de noms "Special:" n'est pas le même que nom de la page dans l'URL : le préfixe "Special:" n'est pas affiché, et le texte d'en tête peut varier légèrement par rapport au nom de la page.

Chaque page spéciale a un nom anglais par défaut, mais elle peut aussi avoir des alias, c'est-à-dire d'autres noms de pages spéciales qui redirigent vers elle. En outre, sur les wikis non anglophones (c'est-à-dire $wgLanguageCode différent de "en"), les noms des pages spéciales sont traduits, et les noms anglais sont des alias qui redirigent vers le nom de la page traduit.

Notez que les alias traduits ne fonctionnent que dans une langue par wiki, en plus des alias anglais ; par exemple, les noms de page spéciaux italiens ne fonctionnent que sur les wikis italiens. Les wikis multilingues avec l'extension de traduction ne supportent que les noms anglais.

Le préfixe de l'espace de noms "Special:" lui-même peut être traduit en fonction de la langue du wiki.

For example, in each project's language, the word used for "Special" in special page names like Special:Statistics is different. Here is the equivalent term in each language:

• Spanish: Especial:Estadísticas
• Dutch: Speciaal:Statistieken
• French: Spécial:Statistiques
• German: Spezial:Statistik
