            Bug ID: 51849
           Summary: Add native support for "Template documentation:"
                    namespace
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Templates
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

The current system of template documentation is ubiquitous and also unwieldy:
noincludes around a {{Documentation}}, which transcludes a /doc or
/documentation subpage. Categorization is also awkward, necessitating further
manipulation of include rules. For such a widespread feature, a more eloquent,
native solution would be very desirable.

Create a new "Template documentation:" namespace and display its content on the
template page, similar to how existing {{Documentation}} templates do so, but
without necessity of trickery with include rules.

Intelligently manage categories and interwikis with the new namespace. Adding
categories and interwikis to the documentation page will affect the original
template page, without transcluding into pages which use the template, and
again without trickery of include rules.
