CSV Articles
Apologies if this has been posted before. I didn't see any results for CSV.  

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

This idea spawned when I wanted to get a cross-section of WIP/Stub articles by total number of views. Basically, I wanted to prioritize where my next efforts would lie to fill out the world. However, I didn't spot any method of doing that (and I apologize if I'm just missing something obvious).    

How does this feature request address the current situation?

It would allow creators to splice and dice the data in any way they see fit if they want to get down to the nitty-gritty or see a specific cross-section not offered by the 'Articles' interface via lists, filters, tags, status, etc. Pivot tables 4 lyfe, right?    

What are other uses for this feature request?

I would imagine others could come up with some interesting use cases as most data does. For me, it would be a more powerful option to freeform peruse data than the built-in interface.

    This can already be done. So I did: Article Metadata CSV Export.   Its not the most polished, but is usable and hopefully covers your needs until the interface catches up.   Feel free to come to Discord and ask for more updates if there is anything missing you wish was included.

    I'm not entirely sure what this is but from what I understand this seems like something other people could find useful.

    This would be a great answer for those who are not API savvy.
