The OrphanedTalkPages extension adds a new Special page to MediaWiki: Special:OrphanedTalkPages. This special page lists all talk pages that do not have an accompanying page.
Installation[edit]
- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
OrphanedTalkPages
in yourextensions/
folder. - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:
wfLoadExtension( 'OrphanedTalkPages' );
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
Configuration parameters[edit]
- $wgOrphanedTalkPagesExemptedNamespaces
- Controls which talk namespaces should be ignored when looking for orphaned talk pages. This variable is an array of namespace ids and is empty by default.
- $wgOrphanedTalkPagesIgnoreUserTalk
- Determines if the user talk namespace (3, or NS_USER_TALK) should be ignored when looking for orphaned talk pages. This variable is a boolean and set to true by default.
Other important notes[edit]
- The query that this special page uses is considered expensive. This means that when
$wgMiserMode
is enabled, the results will be served from cache. - The special page may report talk pages as orphaned when they are not. The most common situation where this happens is File talk pages when
$wgUseInstantCommons
or$wgForeignFileRepos
is enabled.
