TempateData: Provide a way to list all documented (and undocumented) templates on a wiki (beyond Special:PagesWithProp/templatedata)
Open, LowestPublicFeature

Description

At the moment I can't see any user-facing way to identify what templates on a project do or not have TD available for them. It would be great to have some mechanism that can do so - otherwise users are hunting blind when it comes to identifying what templates need it.

Besides, this could be added to the template's "action=info".

True; rewriting the template header to better reflect. :-)

Are we looking for some new DB report here? Or a labs tool? or...?

Also, how is Special:PagesWithProp/templatedata not good enough?

It can't be used to find pages without this prop, but this is needed to find pages where TemplateData is missing. A special page sorted by transclusion count would be the best solution for this part of the feature request, I think.

On en.wikipedia there is a page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:TemplateData/List where all pages with TemplateData sections are displayed. This is periodically created from a script https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Salix_alba/TDList.js which in turn uses the page with props api call.

Aklapper changed the subtype of this task from "Task" to "Feature Request".Feb 4 2022, 11:14 AM
