If you do an XML dump from one wiki and import it to another wiki, you should end up with all the pages in the correct namespace (104), automatically. XML dumps hold the titles in text form and the importer should interpret them in accordance with local wiki config. Of course, both namespace names must be *exactly the same*. As always, please make backups before you try this. Just in case. ;) -- Lucas 'TOR' Garczewski Wikia Tech Team _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
