ux sorting filtering categories-and-articles

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

The problem is that I want to be able to use multiple search and filter functions simultaneously within the Articles & Categories section. For example, I want to see which of my articles within one of my categories has the most views, or quickly find a list of all the species articles which are WIP so that I can update the tags (or something similar). At the moment this isn't possible and the limit on the number of articles listed makes this doubly frustrating.  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

Allowing multiple sorts and filters to be applied at the same time would speed up my ability to organise and shape my world, and reduce the amount of time I spend scrolling so that I can keep on creating.  

What are other uses for this feature request?

This would give people a lot more control over their world and their ability to manage it using WA.

The Team's Response

Thanks for the suggestion! Most of this is planned for the next update to the article manager. Displaying large lists of articles at once will not be added because it would add a lot of load to the database. However, there will be a pagination system that will let you navigate through large lists of articles in batches.
