User blog comment:Meighan/New Tools to Start & Grow Your Wiki/@comment-1714259-20110721083239/@comment-4713673-20110721164009

In the first version of the Admin Dashboard the Advanced tab is really just Special:SpecialPages, you're absolutely right. But! That's just the first version. We would really like to add more tools that are helpful for more advanced admins - some ideas currently floating around are easy access to wikia.css and improved in depth stats. We're asking for feedback on what advanced admin tools you all would like to see, so keep the feedback coming either here or in the F/A Central forums and we'll be noting it all down.

In addition, we'd also like to improve the interface on some of the existing special pages like how you edit top navigation, multiple photo upload, etc. This is just the first step towards building a better central location for admins both new and advanced to get to tools that are really useful. Just to say again, please keep the feedback on what you personally would find useful coming -- we'll be watching out for it.
