SharePoint URL's Lists & Locations An Developers & Administrator’s Guide

Sometimes you want to jump right to a specific system list, page or go to the edit mode in a SharePoint site. I wanted to list all the famous urls I used for the past years and ask you to tell me about any other ones you know to add it here in the list:
(Remember for SharePoint 2013 you might want to add "15" after "/_layouts/" but if you don't SharePoint will take care of that for you)
 Get the version of the SharePoint server (Patch level)

The following is a list of SharePoint URLs to get to commonly used administrative functions on a SharePoint site. The majority of the URLs require administrator permissions on the site and a few require administrator permissions on the SharePoint server. This is a quick list for speedy reference as compared to tracking down links through the admin screens.

If you work in many different SharePoint farms, keep this list handy. Someday you’ll be thankful you have it.
Administrators on a single SharePoint farm can use the shortcuts as well and make life just a bit easier… and, as a bonus, make you more efficient (and who doesn’t want to be more efficient?). Rather than moving the mouse in the GUI and clicking breadcrumbs, sidebars, and pop-up menus, etc… you can get to where you go by simply appending the URL.
