+## GlobLists
+
+In 3.0, the old "GlobList" syntax for [[PageSpecs|ikiwiki/PageSpec]] is no
+longer supported. A GlobList contains multiple term, but does not separate
+them with "and" or "or":
+
+       sandbox !*/Discussion
+
+To convert this to a modern PageSpec, simply add "and" or "or" as
+appropriate between terms:
+
