→Namespace Filters for Contrib Pages
I propose that when you look up contributions, you have the option of searching either all namespaces, or just the main (article) namespace, or any other namespace you want to pick. And if we have that capability already, I'd like to know what I'm missing, and suggest that the method appear on this page so that every sysop knows how to conduct such a filtered search.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 09:11, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

=== Directions Provided ===
Well, after publishing the above, I got the instructions--and from [[User:Sid 3050|Sid 3050]]. Give that man credit for a very helpful suggestion.
In case anyone hasn't seen it yet, whenever we search ''any'' page for user contributions, keywords, or whatever, we can select either all namespaces, or any particular namespace. The filter appears immediately below the set of links to various logs. The minor edits still present a problem--but such filtering is a powerful tool indeed.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 09:49, 9 April 2007 (EDT)
