Okay, so one of my Berserk Buttons on this site is people who don't index the Funny, Awesome, Heartwarming, Tear Jerker, Characters, WMG, Headscratchers, etc. tabs. But is there any way we can get a master list made of all pages that currently aren't indexed?

I would think the explanation given the last time you brought this up of why such a tool would be a problem (negative effects on site performance) would still be valid.

If this issue is really getting to you that much, you may want to take a break from the wiki.

That thread doesn't seem to have an explanation like that. I see a hypothesis, but not a firm "this is why". I do, however, see that a mod locked it and just directed discussion to go to the "What indexes should this go on?" thread.

@2: I was talking about scripts like FELH 2's ones, not about site-side tools. Granted it's possible that a tool listing unindexed pages on the site side would cause performance issues, but that is not what I said.

And that's what I want to know for certain. Could such a tool be made?
