| | In the past I used a python script to generate this page. At some point I figured out how to do it using <nowiki>{{Special:AllPages|hideredirects=1|namespace=0|from=|to=a}}...</nowiki> instead. –[[user_talk:imahero|imahero]] 00:56, 8 December 2023 (UTC) |

| :Nice technical page, but I must ask is there any use for it? At least for me this seems quite useless, causing hinder rather than help. –[[User:Kapteeni Ruoska|Kapteeni Ruoska]] ([[User talk:Kapteeni Ruoska|talk]]) 06:11, 7 September 2016 (CEST)

| ::I wanted to make sure there wasn't anything I was missing. When I'm browsing through the list it's easier to click these links than copy pasting the auto-generated titles from the api query.

| :::Sure, just wondering, as the wiki already has [[Special:AllPages]], but perhaps there is a use for that. –[[User:Kapteeni Ruoska|Kapteeni Ruoska]] ([[User talk:Kapteeni Ruoska|talk]]) 07:27, 8 September 2016 (CEST)

| ::::[[Special:AllPages]] felt too clumsy for me to navigate. All I really wanted was a single list of all nonredirect links :)

| I may want to go back to using the external link syntax if breaking the [[Special:LonelyPages|orphaned pages]] is a big deal. For now I've just added the orphaned pages here and I'll just update the list every time I generate the AllPages list.<br>
