I didn't really know where to put this discussion, but some MediaWikis (I'll take [[Uncyclopedia]] for instance) have spacial pages called [http://en.uncyclomedia.org/wiki/Special:Namespaces Special:Namespaces] that looks exactly like the interwiki modification.

: I'm not really sure what you're suggesting we use namespaces for.  Could you please elaborate? [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 00:07, 6 November 2006 (EST)
::The talk page to aide pages would appear at:
;French namespaces
*"Discussion Aide:" instead of "Talk:Aide:"
*"Discussion WikiIndex:" instead of "Talk:WikiIndex:" well, we also need to create a new French project namespace. (Projet maybe?)
;Misc
*"Proposal talk:" instead of "Talk:Proposal"
*"WikiProject talk:" instead of "Talk:WikiProject" <span title="Swedish n-dash FTW!">&ndash;</span> [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]] / <small>[[User talk:Smiddle|T]]&middot;[[Special:Contributions/Smiddle|C]]&middot;[[Special:Emailuser/Smiddle|@]]</small> 14:29, 14 November 2006 (EST)
 
Go for it. [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 14:59, 14 November 2006 (EST)<br>
We need a new project namespace in French, also. What about IndexDeDesWikis or something? <span title="Swedish n-dash FTW!">&ndash;</span> [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]] / <small>[[User talk:Smiddle|T]]&middot;[[Special:Contributions/Smiddle|C]]&middot;[[Special:Emailuser/Smiddle|@]]</small> 14:12, 17 November 2006 (EST)
 
:The Special:Namespaces page was something that appeared briefly in one fork (1.6-wikidata) of MediaWiki. It allowed bureaucrats to take control of the list of namespaces directly from the web interface instead of editing LocalSettings.php. The [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Simple_namespaces version currently on uncyclopedia.info] is just a kludge based on the [[Special:Interwiki]] extension.
 
:As for the namespaces themselves? The actual descriptions of each individual wiki in this index should be in a separate namespace from vanity articles about people, user pages or anything else that isn't an actual wiki description. JMHO. YMMV. --[[User:Carlb|Carlb]] 13:33, 15 December 2006 (EST)
