           Summary: Don't jumble Wanted Categories into Wanted Pages anymore
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.15-svn
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: need-review, patch
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Special pages
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Gentlemen, there is no way anybody is going to sift through all the
empty (no text, yes members) categories (2000+ on my wikis) to ever be
able to learn about the real "wanted pages" buried deep within.

But why should they be forced to? There already is a separate Wanted
Categories special page!

This patch fixes Wantedpages so it no longer jumbles in what is
already separately in Wantedcategories. I hope my SQL is efficient.

However one notices there are already also additional special pages
these days to find Wanted Files, Wanted Templates.

So please enhance the patch to further not jumble those in too!

Sure there are other requests in bugzilla to add a selector, and
consolidate the various Wanted*, but I'm talking about a problem that
makes Wantedpages unusable... so while we're waiting for the 'final
solution' please fix this problem.
