Dereckson moved this task to Working on on the Wikimedia-Site-requests board.

More input is perhaps needed for global community.

We should attract the attention of the local community some namepaces could be considered more as meta than content, and so not suitable for inclusion.

If they are still willing to proceed, we should determine if this is acceptable to create a cliff between wikis or if we want a smoother and coherent experience among the Wikimedia wikis. A discussion on meta. will be helpful in the matter.

  • Two namespaces organizes the access to the content, a little like portals:
    • Faculté (106)
    • Département (108)
  • Others are more metadata namespaces:
    • Aide (NS_HELP)
    • Wikiversité (NS_PROJECT)
    • Projet (102)

We can proceed for de facto content namespace.

The Recherche: namespace is a content one, and so could immediately be handled, pending an agreement for the two other series.

I've read T125948#2001359 but it's still unclear to me what exactly this is blocked on, or what needs to be discussed where. As tasks should not remain stalled forever I'm boldly reopening, but please feel free to set to stalled again once it's clearer who is supposed to do what and where. Thanks a lot!

I've asked the local village pump for feedback (permanent link).

The question was: "can you confirm all those namespaces are really CONTENT namespaces and not meta?". Content namespaces appear in search results, and in page count for example, and are generally "the articles". Help pages are generally considered as meta.
