Is there any way someone could remove the sale pitch, journal, cook book, & stats info pages from the random page button? I mean, i think it would make sense if it linked to articles only. Idunno. {{User:IAMAHIPO_ocolor/sig}} 01:47, 22 June 2011 (EDT)

:I agree, but don't know of a way.  Maybe putting them in their own namespace (notes: or something), but that's a lot of work.  Oh, and it would probably keep them out of other special pages, like shortpages and dead ends.<span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>

::I was gonna say that putting them in a namespace would work well, but then you added that... I did a <small>very</small> quick Google search, and I couldn't find any plugins or the like... Sounds like there's no way to do this. '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 20:08, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

::::You know, wiki plugins, like the <nowiki><youtube></nowiki> tag. I imagined there could be one such plugin that restricted the namespaces in Special:Random, but I didn't find anything at the time. '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 08:57, 10 November 2011 (EST)
:::::...Oh.  First, they're called extensions.  Second, special:random already only uses the main namespace.  Third, that wouldn't help anyway because notes are in the main namespace (ATM). <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span> 17:09, 10 November 2011 (EST)
::::::Goh what? I'm so dumb... Of course they don't use namespaces... Bah. They're '''subpages'''. I wasn't even paying attention when I wrote that. And I've heard them being called "plugins"...
