| Text = Would it be possible or useful to move the various pages on the wiki ''about'' the wiki to wiki project pages? For example, moving [[Naming Conventions]] to [[Asheron's Call Community Wiki:Naming Conventions]]. Or moving the various pages under [[Help:Contents]] to be under the [[Help:<Page>]] name. Basically, I'm suggesting we separate pages about the wiki and its use from pages actually about the game.

{{Post
| Indent = ::
| Text = It's possible yes, but for a couple of reasons would not be a good idea for this particular wiki I believe.
* By default searches only include the main name space. The concept of name spaces isn't something commonly understood outside the programming community which means neophytes trying to find information have a high probability of being unable to find them if they are outside the Main name space.
* The primary reason for namespaces is to avoid naming conflicts. For a project like Wikipedia that covers essentially everything this is vital. For our wiki this need is almost nonexistant.
* Naming issues, articles outside the main space have (especially in our case with our long site name) an awkward prefix which can also make it harder to find a known article by simply typing the name of the article into the search box.
For these reasons moving articles to other name spaces solves no problems (article name conflicts) and creates problems that don't now exist (search difficulties and lengthening article names). Keeping as much as possible in the main name space is ideal for specialized wikis. --{{User:Tlosk/SigR}} 19:50, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
