--- Comment #8 from Bawolff (Brian Wolff) <[email protected]> ---
This bug is a little unclear. Clarifying it might cause it to be moved along
faster:

*Some of the time the word "alias" is used, other times the phrase "canonical
namespace". These are two separate concepts in MediaWiki, that do different
things. An alias is like a short cut to a namespace (Like how [[Project:About]]
points to the page [[Wikipedia:About]] on english wikipedia. The namespace
name, is the text of the namespace actually shown to the user. (On english
Wikipedia, "Wikipedia" is the name of the wikipedia namespace)

*Its unclear why these namespaces should not apply to non-wikimedia sh
projects. If they are just Cyrillic versions of latin namespace names, then
they would be useful everywhere. This should be clarified.
