:It's <code>titleregexp</code>. So if you wanted a list of all pages in the main namespace which contain blue somewhere in their title, you'd use: <code><nowiki>{{#dpl:namespace = |titleregexp = .*[Bb]lue.*}}</nowiki></code>
{{#dpl:namespace = |titleregexp = .*[Bb]lue.*|format=,[[%PAGE%]] ,,}}
:Or if you wanted only pages with ''start'' with "Blue", you'd go for something like
<code><nowiki>{{#dpl:namespace = |titleregexp = ^Blue.*}}</nowiki></code>
{{#dpl:namespace = |titleregexp = ^Blue.*}}

This page says that, if I hypothetically wanted to get a list of stories that contained the word "blue" in the title, I could use DPL or SMW to get that. But I read both the linked pages and couldn't find anythig about how I would go about doing so on either of them. I found how to filter pages by various attributes, including how I would get a COMPLETE list of stories, but nothing about how to then further filter by a word in the title. Maybe it's just that I'm not very tech savvy but I really don't understand how one would do such a thing. NightmareofEden ☎ 21:57, 28 December 2021 (UTC)

It's titleregexp. So if you wanted a list of all pages in the main namespace which contain blue somewhere in their title, you'd use: {{#dpl:namespace = |titleregexp = .*[Bb]lue.*}}

Or if you wanted only pages with start with "Blue", you'd go for something like

{{#dpl:namespace = |titleregexp = ^Blue.*}}
