- Reference: DPL Manual
- See also Pipesmoker's notes and this page of examples
- Example UI on this Template:Catlist page
All the examples on this page have been commented out to prevent the page from being very slow to load. If you want to see the outcome of a search example, just edit the page and remove the comment tags around the desired example. You don't need to save the page, a preview will give you the search results; that way you can experiment with the examples and easily restore the page to its original state when you are done.
Searching for pages containing a certain text string
Text without wiki markup
Enter {{Search|text}}
anywhere to get the search results in the form of links. Here text can be plain text or a perl like regexp. Be careful to escape regexp meta characters. If the searched text contain wiki markup this template may nor give the desired results; see the next section.
The Search template searches only the main namespace, and only original English pages.
Example: To find all English pages containing the word application - possibly capitalized enter this:
{{Search|[Aa]pplication}}
Text containing wiki markup
In case the Search template does not work for you use code like this to accomplish your desired result:
Searching for pages that hasn't been marked for translation
<DPL> nottitlematch = %/__|%/zh-%|%pt-%|%(%) namespace = Main include = * includenotmatch = /<languages/ includemaxlength = 0 resultsheader = Danish translation units containing the string "applikation" format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]]\n,, </DPL>
Find discussion threads contributed by a user
Perhaps more talk namespaces needs to be searched.
<DPL> namespace = Talk | Thread createdby = AmirHP </DPL>
All English manual pages
<DPL> titlematch = %/Manual% nottitlematch = %/__|%/__-__|%/___|% (% namespace = | User | Draft resultsheader = Manual Pages: format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]]\n,, </DPL>
All English pages linking to a given page
The LinksTo template is describes and tested here: User:Claus_chr/DPL/Test
Kopete Subpages in 3 columns
<DPL> titlematch = Kopete/% notnamespace = Translations columns = 3 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, </DPL>
Akonadi Subpages in Danish
<DPL> titlematch = Akonadi%/da notnamespace = Translations format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, </DPL>
Archived pages
<DPL> titlematch = % namespace = Archive columns = 2 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = There are %TOTALPAGES% pages in the Archive namespace. These are:\n </DPL>
NoIndexed pages
<DPL> titlematch = % category = Noindexed_pages columns = 2 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = There are %TOTALPAGES% pages in the Archive namespace. These are:\n </DPL>
Ignoring Deleted Pages
"As for DPL. If you hit a page with ?action=purge attached to the URL (i.e. http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Template:Latest_news?action=purge ), it will dump all the removed pages."
Remaining old-style translations
<DPL> titlematch = %_(%) notcategory = Template notnamespace = Thread notnamespace = Summary columns = 2 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = There are %TOTALPAGES% pages (partly) remaining in old-style translations. These are:\n </DPL>
Pages with old i18n bar
<DPL> titlematch = % namespace = Main uses = Template:I18n/Language Navigation Bar columns = 3 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = There are %TOTALPAGES% pages that still display the old i18n language bar\n </DPL>
Pages with old i18n bar but w/o old-way-translated ones
<DPL> nottitlematch = %_(%) namespace = Main uses = Template:I18n/Language Navigation Bar columns = 3 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = There are %TOTALPAGES% relevant pages that still display the old i18n language bar\n </DPL>
Pages not updated since 1st July 2010
<DPL> namespace = Main lastrevisionbefore = 201007010000 columns = 2 ordermethod=lastedit format = ,\n* (%DATE%) [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = There are %TOTALPAGES% pages without recent updates\n </DPL>
Listing Non-Translation Pages
<DPL> nottitlematch = %/__|%/zh-%|%(%) titlematch = Amarok% namespace = Main columns = 1 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = There are %TOTALPAGES% Amarok pages, not counting translations\n </DPL>
List all pages in a specific namespace
<DPL> nottitlematch = %/__|%/zh-%|%pt-%|%(%) namespace = MediaWiki columns = 3 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = These %TOTALPAGES% pages are in the Mediawiki namespace\n </DPL>
To count translated pages in a specific language:
<DPL> titlematch = %/en notnamespace = Translations columns = 3 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, resultsheader = There are %TOTALPAGES% pages (partly) translated to English. These are:\n </DPL>
