Screenshot of http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Krinkle/Tools/WhatLeavesHere

During the 2011 Amsterdam Hackathon ([[w:nl:chapter:Hackathon 2011]]) I showed Roan my JavaScript gadget for "What leaves here".

"Isn't that in the core UI, like in the API ?" was something I heard, so filing it here.

keywords:
Filter

  • Source parameter (like WhatLinksHere's "target" parameter)
  • Namespace parameter (eg. only outgoing links to the X namespace, like WhatLinksHere's only incominglinks from the X namespace)
  • Pagination (should be seperate per kind of outgoing like (Links, External links, Categories)
  • Limit parameter

Output sketch:

Internal links

Linkfilter: "Hide transclusions | Hide links | Hide redirects | Hide interwiki links"
List with pagelinks, imagelinks, transclusions and (new in 1.17) iw_links (indicating the kind of link in parentheses) like:

  • [[File:Acap.svg]] (image link) (← leaves)
  • [[w:Foobar]] (← leaves)

View (previous 50 | next 50) (20 | 50 | 100 | 250 | 500)

External links

list with external links

  • irc://irc.freenode.net/wikimedia-commons (← linksearch)

View (previous 50 | next 50) (20 | 50 | 100 | 250 | 500)

Categories

List with categories

  • Category:RTRC users (← leaves)

View (previous 50 | next 50) (20 | 50 | 100 | 250 | 500)

All this information is available with high effeciency, as also through the API.

  • Screenshot of my JavaScript gadget. Although it doesn't have all the features that it could have when done in core, the basic concept works

I was thinking the exact same..

BTW, Links on page, IMHO "sounds" better

Since Roan has a lot on the agenda already and I read up on the new stuff in the SpecialPage class since 1.15 during the Hackathon – I'll take a stab at this myself.

It's been requested in 2008 (thanks ^demon)
