Description:
I would like to request a configration change for pl.wikipedia (file:
InitialiseSettings.php).

Create a new namespace Archiwum and its talk Dyskusja_archiwum (need to run maintenance script namespaceDupes.php afterwards).

'plwiki' => array(
    NS_PROJECT_TALK => 'Dyskusja_Wikipedii',
    NS_USER => 'Wikipedysta',
    # Lower case w in wikipedysty as per bug #10064
    NS_USER_TALK => 'Dyskusja_wikipedysty',
    100 => 'Portal',
    101 => 'Dyskusja_portalu',
    102 => 'Wikiprojekt',
    103 => 'Dyskusja_Wikiprojektu',
    104 => 'Archiwum',
    105 => 'Dyskusja_archiwum',
),

Have fun with the new namespace :-)

There have been serious doubts raised in the community about this (including myself). This is introduced to resolve some problems with article history merging/splitting.

In my opinion this should be done on the database level (revision and archive) tables and launching a whole new namespace for this is simply wrong.

Please revert this change until the proper solution is agreed on.

Sorry for the mess, but I agree that the change should be reverted. I thought there was a consensus for the change, but it seems that not everyone interested noticed the discussion during almost two months...
