:::But User and their Talk would be the same namespace. I'm afraid that would not help. Maybe as parameter of a user-box-template? --[[User_talk:Manorainjan|'''<span style="color: orange;">Manorainjan</span>''']] 12:35, 11 February 2017 (PST)

::::No, they would not. I'm sorry but you do not understand this at all--user namespace and user talk namespace are not the "same namespace". In MediaWiki, <code>User</code> is ns-2 and <code>User talk</code> is ns-3. Just like how the <code>MediaWiki</code> namespace (ns-8) is restricted and the <code>MediaWiki talk</code> namespace (ns-9) is not. Notice how you can post to [[MediaWiki talk:Sidebar]] but you cannot modify [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]]. [[User:Koavf|Koavf]] ([[User talk:Koavf|talk]]) 13:04, 11 February 2017 (PST)

:::::Right, now while You mention it, I remember. I was just recently reading about the namespaces while I was setting up my own wiki ;-) So it would be well possible IP-protect all user pages. So I suggest You do that. It will make Your life easier. My pages are protected anyway ;-) And I can continue to work on my wiki :-) --[[User_talk:Manorainjan|'''<span style="color: orange;">Manorainjan</span>''']] 13:19, 11 February 2017 (PST)

::::::No problem. Thanks for your hard work here and I hope that you decide that you have the time to devote to this community again in a constructive fashion. Either way, I hope for the best with you and your wiki as well as your life in MeatSpace. [[User:Koavf|Koavf]] ([[User talk:Koavf|talk]]) 13:38, 11 February 2017 (PST)
