&#123;&#123;REVISIONxxx:Foo&#125;&#125;
Is there any way to get revision information using the magic words for another page such as getting  or   from  ? This would be useful for keeping track of articles in a project for a list of pages. Technical 13 (talk) 15:44, 22 May 2013 (UTC)


 * No. This can be handled by a DynamicPageList extension, though. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 09:11, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

_NOEDITSECTION_ on every page?
Hey there, I am using Mediawiki and I have problems with partly editing of pages, so I want to disable the "edit section" Button for the whole wiki. Is this possible?
 * If there was such a thing, I would think it would be listed on Manual:Configuration settings (alphabetical), which it is not. However, depending on which version of MediaWiki you are running you could just set the class (use to be   but was recently renamed   on some wikis like en.wikipedia) for to   in your MediaWiki:Common.css --  Technical 13 (talk) 12:48, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I'd like to be able to do this too
I don't understand the answer saying that you set \ again; in that case, I wonder whether it would be better to remove the mentioned link to MediaWiki at "en:Help:Magic words" as well. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:21, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Number of files in Articles
Hi, Is there any way to be able to count the number of files (In my case: Images) shown in article/category? In other words, I want to have the number of occurrence of any in given article.

The magic word  is not described in this page, and I honestly don't know the difference between that and. Cainamarques (talk) 21:32, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Displaying the article's author on the page
Is there any magic word for that? For example displays the username/IP of the last user, who edited the article. How to display the username/IP of the user, who created the article?--185.31.48.30 09:45, 17 April 2014 (UTC)


 * No. That would be an expensive operation, as MediaWiki should find the first revision of the current page. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 16:53, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

Adding translatable docu to such a page is horrifying
This diff together with translate tags etc. causes fatals, so I gave up. Sorry for this. The standard nonsense error message "Fatal exception of MediaWiki exception" or what this is called will probably not help digging into the issue. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 22:32, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

anchorencode
Did somebody change anchorencode ?

It now seems to strip italic markup, rather than encode it:

->

It just means that on en-wp, we have to clean up a few hundred articles where en:template:SfnRef (which uses anchorencode to generate anchors in footnotes) has anchors that are generated from italicised words. --RexxS (talk) 16:30, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
