            Bug ID: 70018
           Summary: Special:UnconnectedPages should be includable
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement

Most special pages which return a list of pages are able to be transcluded.
e.g. {{NewPages}}

UnconnectedPages is not a subclass of IncludableSpecialPage, so
{{Special:UnconnectedPages}} does not work.  Adding that superclass fixes the
immediate problem and the list is shown, but the page cache will probably be a
problem, especially for UnconnectedPages as it is very dynamic with bots
creating new items for every unconnected page.

Creating a IncludableWikibaseQuerySpecialPage will be necessary, and will allow
extension authors to take advantage of the wikibase data on clients without
knowing all the caching voodoo.
