Description

This script adds an extra Special-page called "What leaves here", and a link in the toolbox next to "What links here". This tool enables you list all outgoing pagelinks, image links, external links, categories and transclusions on the page. A bit like WhatLinksHere which lists all incoming pagelinks, image links and transclusions. Can be filtered by namespace as well.

Install

• Paste this code in your common.js:

// [[File:Krinkle_WhatLeavesHere.js]]
mw.loader.load('//meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Krinkle/Tools/WhatLeavesHere.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');

Please leave the [[File:Krinkle_WhatLeavesHere.js]] in for statistics⁺

• Now browse to an article and click "What leaves here" in the toolbox.
•  Done :-)

If nothing appears, be sure to verify that you've put the above code on the wiki you use the tool on, not per se here on Meta. Note that this tool is optimized for WebKit (Safari, Chrome) browsers. It should also work fine in Mozilla (Firefox). Internet Explorer will not be supported.
Also clear your cache and do a hard refresh. If you encounter any issues, please let me know!

How to clear cache
Note: After saving, you may have to bypass your browser's cache to see the changes. Mozilla / Firefox / Safari: hold down Shift while clicking Reload, or press Ctrl-Shift-R (Cmd-Shift-R on Apple Mac); IE: hold Ctrl while clicking Refresh, or press Ctrl-F5; Konqueror: simply click the Reload button, or press F5; Opera users may need to completely clear their cache in Tools→Preferences.

Install as Gadget

(These instructions are for sysops who can edit in the MediaWiki:-namespace)

• Copy the the Install snippet to your wiki's MediaWiki:Gadget-WhatLeavesHere.js (just like when you would install it in your user script)
• Create MediaWiki:Gadget-WhatLeavesHere with something like the following:

''WhatLeavesHere'': A Special page for extracting all links from the current page. Accessible from the Toolbox. 

• Then add a line in MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition somewhere with:
  

  * WhatLeavesHere[ResourceLoader]|WhatLeavesHere.js
