Insights is designed to help you spot articles on your community that have issues or may need attention.

Accessing Insights Edit

Any user can access the feature by navigating directly to Special:Insights, by adding a link to their toolbar, or by using the link on Recent Changes. Some users may also see entry points on Admin Dashboard and Wiki Activity.

The lists Edit

Each Insights list has been chosen to help identify pages that are missing vital pieces of structure or content. It's a good idea to include links, categories, infoboxes and images on all articles to help readers find and navigate through your content, and for a more interesting experience.

  • Unorganized templates
  • Non-portable infoboxes
  • Popular pages
  • Pages without categories
  • Pages without images
  • Pages without links
  • Wanted pages
  • Pages without an infobox

When an item on an Insights list has been fixed via Insights (e.g. clicking a result and adding a category to a page that previously had no categories), it will be immediately removed from the list. Otherwise, the lists are generally updated once a day.

Many of the lists also display the number of page views each article received in the previous week - this column is updated every Sunday.

The banner Edit

When you choose an item from an Insights list, a notification banner will follow you to the editor of your preference and remind you what aspects needs to be fixed on that article. After you fix the issue, the banner will let you navigate back to the list or continue to the next item that needs to be fixed.
