I'm not familiar with newpagesfeed). Oliver says NewPagesFeed already lists page moves. If this is the case, then we should be evangelizing use of that tool as a short term solution. The above solution is only good for enwiki though. If it's inordinately difficult to add recent moves to Special:NewPages, then I think Option 2, and creation of a proper Special:RecentMoves, would be the ideal case for most Wikimedia wikis. Ideally, a Special:RecentMoves would... * Be able to be filtered by moves within any namespace * Be able to be filtered down to cross-namespace moves Brian, I added Dan Garry to this bug, as it seems like it's a part of Platform's remit. Dan, does that sound reasonable? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
