Too broad. I was actually going to criticize a similar regexp at Meta:MediaWiki:Titleblacklist for being too broad. I've updated the regexp here though to reflect another possibility even though I haven't seen it happen anywhere I've looked. I think Meta and other projects should instead be using: (?:[^\/]+\/)?index\.php(?:\/.+)?. --darkYin yang.svglama 17:35, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
I don't see how any education resource would contain the string "/w/index.php" ; but then I am not too familiar with this type of regex. Is there such an example?Hillgentleman|Talk 02:35, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
