Per "Additional namespaces" field of request template in that page, please create these namespaces:

  1. Portal
  2. School
  3. Topic
  4. Portal_talk
  5. School_talk
  6. Topic_talk

The actual namespaces should keep in English, as we need to define translations of them elsewhere (@RazeSoldier is that wikiversity_family.py?)

Shouldn't these custom namespaces be defined in mediawiki-config/wmf-config/InitialiseSettings.php?

@RazeSoldier yeah we should define translations there.

@RazeSoldier yeah we should define translations there.

In fact we can define translations in MediaWiki:Conversion-ns<namespace ID> and its subpages, like: zhwiki.

[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Initial configuration for zhwikiversity

I'd prefer creating namespaces _after_ creating the wiki, not _while_. I've not added them into the configuration patch above then.

Shangkuanlc rescinded a token.
Shangkuanlc awarded a token.
Shangkuanlc subscribed.

I haven't been following this task closely, but note that T185799, which was opened prematurely (in January) by @Assoc and just closed by @Liuxinyu970226 as a duplicate of this one, contained the following items in its description that aren't in (or are not the same in) this task:

Local file uploads: admin
Additional namespaces: Portal, School, Topic, Lesson
main page: Wikiversity:首页

So, talk amongst yourselves and decide what, if anything, needs to be done about that.

@Dcljr That's a LTA, why do you trust their so-called configurations?

I don't. I said y'all need to look at this and decide what needs to be done. If you're saying nothing should be done, then fine.

Waiting for real wiki creation.

Wikis are live. Thank you @Reedy and all who helped! Leaving those tasks opened because other things will be necessary, as they always are when creating new wiki.

@Urbanecm are you going to create the additional namespaces now (per T199577#4424860 and T199577#4424969)? The imported content contains several pages that are supposed to be in other namespaces but ended up in the mainspace because their namespaces weren't defined yet.

Also, note T201353: Run initSiteStats.php on zhwikiversity after creation of new namespaces, which I guess should be done after the pages actually get into the right namespaces? (I don't know if it matters.)

<s>BTW: Is "Topic:" going to be a problem because it's used by the Flow extension?</s>

Edit: Comment made irrelevant by T201675.
