Description:
As far as I can tell, there is no way to search MediaWiki for pages that contain a specific template.

This is a feature request to add support to the API for specifying a template filter in search requests either by adding a templates parameter to the opensearch action or creating a new action that can return lists of pages that contain one of the supplied templates.

I am working on the openancestry.org project and need a way to search wikipedia for Persondata pages.
