Bug ID: 70595
Summary: Flow: Clarify the usage of the Topics namespace, and
whether it's needed in dropdown menus
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Flow

There's a "Topic" option in the namespace dropdown menu at
Special:Contributions - however, an editor's contributions to Flow discussions,
are not listed there, but only in the actual namespace indicated. I.e.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=100&tagfilter=&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=Quiddity+II&namespace=2600&tagfilter=&year=2014&month=-1
vs
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=50&tagfilter=&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=Quiddity+II&namespace=5&tagfilter=&year=2014&month=-1
Expected (?) : if this namespace is not intended to be used as a
"contributions" tracker, then possibly it should be removed from the dropdown
menu, to avoid confusion.
If it is intended to be used as a tracker, then possibly a user's contributions
to Flow Topics should be listed in both sections? (e.g. both "Topic:" and
"Wikipedia talk:")
