Motivation
Special pages are super useful for all kinds of analysis and research. For example,
- Special:ListUsers: How many users have a specific user access level (per Wikipedia)?
- Special:ListFiles: How many local files does a wiki have?
- Special:WhatLinksHere: How many pages link to a specific page?
Problem
These pages don’t show how many list entries there are. So in order to obtain this number, all list entries need to be copied from the special page into a spreadsheet. This is cumbersome work, especially when the list entries are stretching across multiple pages, that can probably be avoided.
Wish
Display the number of the list entries on each special page with lists, as this is done with the results on search pages.
