Extension:Admin Links/ar

Admin Links is an extension to MediaWiki that defines a special page, "Special:AdminLinks", that holds links meant to be helpful for wiki administrators; it is meant to serve as a "control panel" for the functions an administrator would typically perform in a wiki. All users can view this page; however, for those with the 'adminlinks' permission (sysops/administrators, by default), a link to the page also shows up in their "Personal URLs", between "Talk" and "Preferences".

يقدّم امتداد وصلات الإداريين رابط وواجهة برمجية تطبيقات للامتدادات الأخرى كي يمكنها إضافة وصلاتها الشبكية وأقسامها إلى الصفحة.

You can see an example of this page with additional links and sections added by other extensions here.

MediaWiki already provides a "Special:SpecialPages" page, which lists the special pages for all the extensions installed on the wiki, which may lead you to wonder what the need is for the additional "AdminLinks" page. However, there are a number of important differences that make "AdminLinks" useful:
 * "SpecialPages" holds links to every special page in the wiki, including many (such as Unused categories) that are not specifically helpful to administrators; "AdminLinks" attempts to link only to the administrator-specific ones
 * "AdminLinks" can hold links to pages that are not special pages, such as the "Edit sidebar" page and documentation for various extensions
 * Finally, the Admin Links extension puts a link to "AdminLinks" in administrators' personal tools, which makes things more convenient.
