Help:Project pages

Project pages on a wiki site are those pages dealing with, or referring to the actual wiki site itself, the wiki internals, also known as 'meta' (which means referring to itself, or self-referential). On wiki sites powered by MediaWiki (including this WikiIndex wiki site), a standard default project namespace will be automatically created by the MediaWiki software; in our case, this is the 'WikiIndex:' namespace (where all meta project pages will follow the 'WikiIndex:Pagetitle' naming schema).

As an example, if you have a wiki site about dogs, the main page (and all article pages in the main namespace) will be about dogs, and the 'project pages' are about how to manage that specific wiki site that collects information about dogs. Here on WikiIndex, it might sometimes appear a little confusing, because this WikiIndex wiki is the wiki of wikis. Therefore, our project pages and our main pages are all dealing about wiki maters as well!

Our project or meta pages here on WikiIndex should all be found in category: WikiIndex.
