Description:
Hi,

Actually Special:AncientPages look only the main namespace.

Some other Special pages look on the other namespace (as Special:AllPages).

It would be interesting to allow this special page to also look into other namespace to facilitate maintenance work.

Thanks

The special page already takes all namespaces into account, which are mentioned in ´$wgContentNamespaces`. I don't think, that any other namespace would make much sense to have pages on this special page.

If you think, that a selection of a namespace makes sense, feel free to reopen this task (maybe you could assign a use case, too :)).
