--- Comment #18 from Merlijn van Deen <valhall...@arctus.nl> ---
I suggest re-opening this, as there is are at least two use cases the table
provides:
1) creating full page titles and URLs on the SQL level; for this at least the
canonical (Talk, User, User Talk, etc) namespaces have to be provided. The
Toolserver wiki shows the following example query:
SELECT
ns_name,
page_title
FROM enwiki_p.page
JOIN toolserver.namespacename
ON ns_id = page_namespace AND dbname = 'enwiki_p'
WHERE page_namespace = 6
AND ns_is_favorite = TRUE
LIMIT 1;
Note that it's impossible to construct a URL without the namespace names --
you cannot link to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NS3:valhallasw, for example.
2) providing localized page titles for multiple sites (see Comment 2).
