Description

Within MW, it is possible to transclude Special pages, especially with piped parameters, to present targetted data, eg. {{Special:prefixindex}}.

Special:IndexPages is a special page that would also suit this sort of functionality. For example, I would like to transclude
{{special:indexpages|key=eminent scotsmen|order=quality}}

https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AIndexPages&limit=500&key=Eminent+Scotsmen&order=quality

and at this time, such an approach just createsa link.~~~~
