I made some minor bloopers recently. On the whole "Late Night speculation" and "Twitter interviwe questions" and "Did you know" I should have redirected people to the forum like we did with "The Sims 4 predictions". Now we know, direct people to the forum and not the talk pages unless it's about the ARTICLE not about what the article is about.

I've had '''DPL''' or '''Dynamic Page List''' enabled for this wiki. It is an 'available on request' extension.
*[[Help:DynamicPageList]]
*[[Help:Using DynamicPageList Effectively]]
*[http://semeb.com/dpldemo/index.php?title=Main_Page DPL webpage]
So far it's only being used to count the number of files in [[:Category:Articles for moving]] to color the background in the [[The Sims Wiki:Admin Portal|Admin Portal]] if there are any :p
 
 
It has many other uses though:
*List uncategorized images (even if they belong to a copyright category)
*Find image duplicates (maybe, not quite sure)
 
 
;Things to remember:
*Use it sparingly
*Do not use it in templates
*Allow cached results
