'''Special pages''' are pages generated by the software on demand for special purposes, usually related to project maintenance. They are found in the <code>Special:</code> [[Wikipedia:Namespace|namespace]], a virtual namespace whose pages lack corresponding talk pages. They are not written in [[Help:Wikitext|wikitext]] and cannot be directly edited but elements of their pages can sometimes be edited through corresponding pages in the [[Help:MediaWiki namespace|MediaWiki namespace]]. If you make a normal redirect to a special page, the redirect will not be immediately followed (though special pages can be targets of [[Wikipedia:Soft redirect|soft redirect]]s), and directly creating any pages beginning with the <code>Special:</code> prefix is also not possible.
Special pages often take [[parameter (computer programming)|parameter]]s. Sometimes these can be supplied after a slash (as in [[Special:Log/block]]); in other cases an index.php call is used; for example https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&days=3&limit=10. Also, the content of most special pages depends on preferences that have been set by the user, e.g. classic or enhanced Recent Changes, the number of titles in Recent Changes and the watchlist, etc.
Line 10 ⟶ 12:
A directory of special pages ''available for the current user'' can be accessed from [[Special:SpecialPages]], which is found in the sidebar of every page on Wikipedia in the Tools section.
== Modifying special pages ==
Although special pages are not themselves editable, they generally contain standard text which is modifiable (although only by administrators). To find the right portion of text, append <code>[[mw:Help:Qqx|?uselang=qqx]]</code> to the special page URL, or append <code>&uselang=qqx</code> instead if the URL already contains a <code>?</code>. This will reveal message names in parentheses. Then, go to that name in the [[Help:MediaWiki namespace|MediaWiki namespace]]. For example, {{querylink|Special:BookSources|qs=uselang=qqx|2=Special:BookSources?uselang=qqx}} reveals "(booksources-summary)", so [[MediaWiki:Booksources-summary]] is used on that page. To propose a modification, leave an {{tl|edit fully

== Special pages in other languages ==
The term in the site language equivalent to the English word "Special" and the special page name in English (e.g. "Special:Statistics") is used in each project, for example:
* "{{lang|es|Especial:Estadísticas|italic=no}}" in Spanish
* "{{lang|
* "{{lang|
* "{{lang|de|Spezial:Statistik|italic=no}}" in German
These also appear in the [[Help:URL|URL]]s. The English word "Special" and the special page name in English (e.g. "Special:Statistics") always works, even on foreign-language sites, but non-English equivalents don't work on English-language projects, nor on other-language project besides the language edition one is on.
