	Unlisted would probably be a better name, but I implemented a way for pages to not show up in searches. These pages are not inaccessible but can only be accessible with a direct link. To do so, you create a page with the namespace hidden in front of it. Easiest way to do so is go to your user page and add to your page <code>[[Hidden:Page_Name]]</code> replacing Page_Name with the name of your page, and save it. Your user page is easy to get to, especially if you made an edit to a page, so if you're concern about people getting to your hidden page through your user page, you can remove the link to your hidden page afterwards.

	~~== Configuration ==~~

	~~Code added to the LocalSettings.php was the following:~~

	~~<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>~~
	~~define("NS_HIDDEN",3000);~~
	~~define("NS_HIDDEN_TALK",3001);~~
	~~$wgExtraNamespaces[NS_HIDDEN] = "Hidden";~~
	~~$wgExtraNamespaces[NS_HIDDEN_TALK] = "Hidden_talk";~~
	~~$wgNamespacesToBeSearchedDefault[NS_HIDDEN] = false;~~
	~~$wgNamespacesToBeSearchedDefault[NS_HIDDEN] = false;~~
