Bawolff (Brian Wolff) <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #25 from Bawolff (Brian Wolff) <[email protected]> --- I have a hard time understanding what is going on here? If this was any other wiki, we would note that their is community consensus, and implement the change. The only thing slightly iffy thing here is to be able to let anons create pages in this namespace - that might require someone taking 10 seconds writing a hook (Or even better, someone fixing mediawiki so we have proper per-namespace permissions). However that can easily be done later. the robots thing is already a config option. Furthermore, all these various "config" related changes are trivial to change after the fact if people discover they want something different. New namespaces get created for other wikis all the time. This has traditionally been something that has entirely been up to the community to decide for themselves. I don't understand why enwiki gets treated so differently. >Key minimum requirements for launch are being hashed out at >https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Draft_namespace Kind of seems odd this is being written up on mediawiki.org, for something that is in essence a config change coming out of enwikipedia community. Its not like there are non-user facing technical hurtles to surmount. There's no new db schema being proposed or anything like that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
