Hi All,
I am trying to hack the 'Wanted Pages' special page to exclude a specific namespace (or if that works beter all namespaces I created myself).
I have looked at the SpecialWantedpages.php and the actual query performed seems plain to see. There is however one thing I don't understand. In the query (see below) the 'where' clause specifies that 'page_namespace IS NULL'. And still I see all the namespaces listed.
Now I modified the query's where clause with "and pl_namespace != 104" and that does what I want it to, but I still don't understand the IS NULL part. Because if I throw that part to mysql: (select * from page where page_namespace IS NULL) it returns no rows (expected behaviour).
Can any of you guru's out here on the mailing list help clear this one up for me?
Thanks, Hans.
