Description

The page [[Special:WithoutInterwiki]] on enwiki is completely useless. It is limited to 1000 pages, and it doesn't even get up to the letter A on such a huge wiki. It seems to be updated quite often (every few days), and server resources could be saved by disabling updates of this page.

Version: unspecified
Severity: minor

Changed Keywords: Performance, Shell → Shell

The performance keyword is designed for instances that degrade the mediawiki package.

Please show community consensus for this special page to be disabled on en.wikipedia.
