Hello;
There is a paragraph on how to create a special page in the FAQ

It's not so difficult. At the end,it says you have to create a simple
page and write the name of your special page in it. If you forget this
the title of your special page will have < and > around. I haven't
got a clue why creating a page with the name in it solves this, but it works
That page seems to have changed, it now just has a pointer to an
article about writing an extension which really doesn't seem to build
a special page.
I just figured out how to build a new special page which is like the
Uncategorized pages page, but looks at the Image namespace. I wrote it
up at
