In Wikipedia and other [[MediaWiki]] projects, '''[[Special:Random]]''' can be used to access a random article in the main [[Wikipedia:Namespace|namespace]]; this feature is useful as a general starting point for browsing Wikipedia or if you just want to learn a random piece of information.

Depending on your browser, it's also possible to load a random page using a [[Wikipedia:Keyboard shortcuts|keyboard shortcut]] (in Firefox {{keypress|Alt-Shift}}+{{keypress|X}}).

To create a link to a random page in a different namespace, use <code><nowiki>[[Special:Random/</nowiki>''Namespace''<nowiki>]]</nowiki></code>.
