Extension talk:CreatedPagesList

What sets this extension apart from "newOnly=1" and "Special:Log/create"?

[edit]

This is not criticism, just a question. On the user contributions page, there is a newOnly=1 parameter, and there is also the page creation log. Do they not make this extension redundant, or have I perhaps misunderstood something? Elominius (talk) 14:52, 9 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

For an active contributor, both lists will include many non-articles. 1) Special:Contributions?newonly=1 doesn't filter out redirects. 2) page creation log shows pages in all namespaces (e.g. templates), not only articles. It was also added in MediaWiki 1.32, so any pages created prior to 1.32 won't be in it. Edward Chernenko (talk) 15:46, 9 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
I see. Thanks for explanation and for quick response. Elominius (talk) 16:10, 9 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
