Features[edit source]
WikiAdmin is a container (tab in the left navigation), where an administrator can find special admin functions.
Technical background[edit | edit source]
Alternative to special page Special:WikiAdmin. The WikiAdmin page contains lots of useful management options, which can be done in a very uncomfortable way or only in the script with MediaWiki.
