Orphans are pages that aren't linked to anywhere on the wiki. They are generally hard to get to as a result.
Identifying an orphan[edit]
You can identify an orphan by one of two methods.
- Special:WhatLinksHere. This tells you what pages link to a specific page. There is a link in the sidebar that, by default, shows you a list of pages for the one you are on. Alternatively, type in the name of the article into the box on the page.
- Special:LonelyPages. This gives a full list of orphaned pages.
Marking an orphan[edit]
An orphan can be marked by using the {{Orphan}} template. This is placed at the top of the article.
