Here's a brief history of my feature requests that might put the wait time and whatnot in perspective. @Dessamator: you might like this. So, all that said... I think it's time for my yearly checkup / request. :-) Whoa that's a lot of requests and a lot more "yes" than "no". I once also asked for dpl, but after a careful explanation from staffI decided that the wiki didn't need it.

I recently read about a  extension:variables that wikia does in fact support, and that I requested previously and even created a module around it.

It was quite an interesting discussion that makes me believe that wikia will in the near future disable that extension.

Well, have you tried using #dplvar in DynamicPageList? It has part of what you're looking for in ext:Variables. On its face, ext:Variables looks terrible. I don't think they're going to disable it based on what he said in 2006, though.
