Thanks! I did not know about SystemInfo . On one of my wikis, I'm seeing
1.6.0, and the other says the page does not exist. I'll watch for your
update and try again. How do I remove a page that has no title? I am
seeing a recent change of:

3 September 2025
(diff) (hist) . . ; 14:37 . . lxbfYeaa (contribs | new pages) (Created by
CreatePage)

THANKS!

Harold
