Remove namespace 446 and 447 from eswiki
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The Education program extension has been removed from production some time ago (T125618). In some wikis were the namespaces not removed, as there were still pages there, e.g. as archives. In eswiki there are no pages left in these namespaces:

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:allpages?from=&to=&namespace=446

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/special:allpages?from=&to=&namespace=447

thus they should be removed.

But @Hasley confirmed to me that there is no value in preserving these.
