Forum:Wanted Pages...Can Redlinked User Pages be Excluded?

Is it possible to reconfigure Special:Wantedpages so that they don't include redlinked userpages? If so, how? Jaywin 14:51, 30 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Not at least on Wikia, and I'm sure it wouldn't be possible even if you could alter LocalSettings.php file. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, though.


 * The most common solution I've seen to this is to use a template, such as Star Wars Fanon's Template:User and add it to those redlinked userpages. --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 15:02, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Special banned user list?
Would it be possible to create a special page with a banned user list? Jaywin 15:02, 1 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Special:Ipblocklist is already in the core MediaWiki software. :) --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 15:05, 1 June 2007 (UTC)


 * True. However, (and I should have been more specific), I was wondering about this to fix a particular problem. Banned users end up on the special "user list," right along with the non-banned users. (And when I say "banned", I mean specifically those who are banned indefinitely, not just temporary blocks.) I was wondering if it was possible to somehow automatically separate the two. If someone is banned, there username is automatically taken off the user list, and automatically placed on a special banned users list. Jaywin 15:37, 1 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, it's unfortunate that sometimes banned users end up on Special:Activeusers. I'll go poke someone about this, it'd be a good idea indeed to drop banned users from active users list. Thanks for the suggestion. :) --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 15:46, 1 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks. While you're "poking around," you may want to remember that not only do banned users end up on Special:Activeusers, they end up on Special:Listusers, as well. :) Jaywin 16:56, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
 * How the mechanic works specifically i dont know but... Special:Activeusers its a list of all the users that have edit on your wiki so while there is record of that user contribution it will keep appearing on that list.
 * Special:Listusers its the list obtain from the wikia database so like every wiki has user # ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Benjamin McIlwain (aka Cyde Weys) is grotequely obese. (thought i dont know why it does not appear here at central wikia, but in the rest of wikia it appears in the list of users) thats why i never check listusers.
 * a proposition more focus to the Special:Listusers. It would be great that at least users that have been ban Server wide will be wipe out (well technically this cant happen) in terms of appearing at that list. i guess that every wiki has their own user with hate names, in any case to avoid so many hassle to the staff, every six months by a period of 2 weeks every wiki can report on a certain page what users have this type of names so at the end (or during) the 2 week period all those user with clearly hate names, and that has been prove vandalize behaviour will be server wide banned. --Cizagna (Talk) 17:36, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

New link color?
Would it be possible to give uneditted userpages their own link color? If so, would that get them off of the Wanted pages? Jaywin 15:55, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Blue and red simply indicate that a page does or does not exist. It's unneccessary to invent a new colour only to be used on one namespace just to do something like that, if that's what you meant. – Smiddle / talk 18:54, 2 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I actually had a different suggestion here. If it was taken you could filter the wantedpages by namespacel. ~Dantman(talk) tricks Jun 2, 2007 @ 18:55 (UTC)
