Other options are available. You can change the limit (number of pages shown), the offset, namespace, and whether you want to show a piece of navigation that lets you browse older pages. For example, {{Special:NewPages/limit=7,offset=10,shownav}} would show 7 new pages, not including the last 10, with some navigation.

Note the above example uses {{Special:NewPages/namespace=Help,5}} as all help pages are in the help namespace.

Wanted pages

To display the five pages with the most links to them, type {{Special:WantedPages/5}}

MediaWiki:Tagline, Wikia Help:AutoWikiaBrowser, MediaWiki:Pagetitle, Wikia Help:Attribution and MediaWiki:Blockedtext

There are no options other than the number of links. The list displays horizontally, and includes all namespaces.

How can I include a list of recent changes?

To display the five latest edits on Special:RecentChanges, type {{Special:RecentChanges/5}}
