What is WikiExplorer?

WikiExplorer provides a special page with an article list, which can be filtered and sorted.

Where to find WikiExplorer?

You can find WikiExplorer on the special page Special:WikiExplorer, and can also be found in the overview list of all special pages. Click on More in the upper right corner of the article to open the Widgetbar. Under the header "Tools" the link to the special pages can be found.

You can then find WikiExplorer under the header BlueSpice.

Alternatively, you can attach the code Special:WikiExplorer to your domain in the address line of your browser.

Choose columns as viewing criteria

In the header of the list, you can choose the sorting criteria and metadata you want to see. Move your mouse to the top of any column and click on the arrow that appears there. Under the subitem Columns you can decide what information you want to see.

Sorting sequence

Click on the title of a column to sort the list based on this criteria, either upwards or downwards.

Using filters

For some content, there are some specially adapted filters available, that can be used to further sort the list. Move your mouse to the head of the respective column and click on the arrow. Under the subitem Filter you can now narrow the list further down.

You can use filters for the following content:

Content	Possible filters	Sortable

Working hints

Use WikiExplorer to initialize maintenance measures. You can for example point out articles that have not been approved yet, or check with articles with a low view count if they can be deleted or advertised (e.g. by linking it on the main page).
