I’ve found that I can transclude Special:WantedPages using double-curly-braces ({{Special:WantedPages}}), but the result is an in-line comma-separated list, not a vertical numbered list like you see on the page itself. I figured out that I can specify how many pages to list with a slash ({{Special:WantedPages/6}})... is there another parameter that would let me specify the list format?
I tried manually reformatting it using StringFunctions ({{#replace:{{Special:WantedPages}}|,|<br>}}), but this just produced an empty string. Does anyone understand why that doesn’t work?
