            Bug ID: 56301
           Summary: Accept numeric namespaces directly
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General/Unknown
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

When doing namespace database queries, some numeric namespace info is returned.
However, when it's fed back to any endpoint of MediaWiki (eg. index.php,
api.php), namespaces must be written in text form. It could be nice if we can
just write "100:Foo" as well in addition to "Portal:Foo", and I guess it could
solve must of needs of bug 48625.

If "100:Foo" is considered to clash a lot with existing titles, maybe we can
use "[100]:Foo" or something, though that means we need to change title
validation code in many places.
