In includes/specials/SpecialExport.php there's a hardcoded limit of 5000
pages in the two functions getPagesFromCategory() and
getPagesFromNamespace() [0].
For a variety of reasons I find myself wanting to export pages from a
category which has over 5000 pages, and the Special:Export page seems
like a convenient place to do this, but of course it limits category
page title fetching to 5000.
Would it be:
a) dangerous to fiddle with this value temporarily to facilitate the
export, and
b) worth considering to split this off in for example a variable one
could set in LocalSettings.php?
