{{Special:NewImages/1}} would output 50 images. Reported on mw.org https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Talk:MediaWiki_1.18/_Special:NewImages/1_fail
Doesn't appear to be any different when not transcluded: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:NewFiles/1 Would need to add support for a param there, assuming it's not being used for something else... looks like it is not being used at present at all so would be safe to use.
Same for Special:NewFiles, too. {{Special:NewFiles/15}} previously (1.17) yielded 15 files in the gallery, now lists 50.

removing keyword design. Other special pages support lmiting the query via subpage, this is not a new or controversial issue. Switching component back to Special Page. Transcluding special pages is still a Special page issue, not a template issue. Personally I don't think this deserves high priority, but i'm not touching that field.

p.s. Forgot to mention there is also a work around of doing {{Special:newfiles|limit=15}} Try this link again: Gerrit change #14680 (?)
