+[[template id=plugin name=recentchanges core=1 author="[[Joey]]"]]
+
+This plugin examines the [[revision_control_system|rcs]] history and
+generates a page describing each recent change made to the wiki. These
+pages can be joined together with [[inline]] to generate the
+[[RecentChanges]] page.
+
+Typically only the RecentChanges page will use the pages generated by this
+plugin, but you can use it elsewhere too if you like. It's used like this:
+
+ \[[inline pages="internal(recentchanges/change_*)"
+ template=recentchanges show=0]]
+
+Here's an example of how to show only changes to "bugs/*".
+This matches against the title of the change, which includes a list of
+modified pages.
+
+ \[[inline pages="internal(recentchanges/change_*) and title(*bugs/*)"

+Here's an example of how to show only changes that Joey didn't make.

+Sometimes it's useful to put pages in the wiki without the overhead of

+To make an internal use page, register a filename extension that starts
