Summary: Typeahead search drop-down suggestions for special page
parameters
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: Search
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: br...@wikimedia.org
We have lovely typeahead search suggestions for regular page names, and for raw
Special: page names (eg if you "special:rec" and get shown
"Special:RecentChanges" and "Special:RecentChangesLinked") but...
What would come in quite handy for us power users would be if for special pages
which are known to accept a page title as a slash-parameter, we could get
typeahead suggestions for page titles!
Eg, type "Special:Whatlinkshere/leb" and see:
Special:WhatLinksHere/Lebanon
Special:WhatLinksHere/Lebanese Civil War
Special:WhatLinksHere/LeBron James
etc.
This would require special pages registering themselves as accepting titles as
a parameter, as not all of them do. (And some take usernames or other special
cases, which would need different support.)
