--- Comment #7 from Technical 13 <[email protected]> ---
The specific reason that Main or Help namespace can't be used for this project
is that anonymous IPs need to be able to edit in the namespace (which can not
be done currently in any namespace on enwp [which was forcing us to try and
work around that technical restriction by having them do it in a talkspace,
resulting in creating new editors that were confused as to where to edit and
causing a little bit of a mess] and this needs to be as accurate of a
demonstration/test setup to what "might" go live on enwp as possible).  If it
wasn't for that technical restriction, I wouldn't have even asked.  As far as
putting up some kind of rfc, I wasn't aware the the testwiki worked that way
and that wasn't the impression I got when I asked on #wikimedia-tech on IRC. 
Had I had been told that needed to be done, I would have done it without any
complaints.  It would seem that this has been started on my behalf at
[[testwiki:Wikipedia:Village_pump#Proposal_for_additional_namespaces_for_Test_Wiki]]
with a link pointing here, thanks This, that and the other. :)
