Hi, the community in eo.wiki wants to have a new namespace (number 102/103): * Projekto: (Project:) * Projekta diskuto: (Project talk:) Could you add it?
Generally the "project namespace" refers to namespace integers 4 and 5, which come with a standard MediaWiki install. Project: and Project talk: are both canonical namespace names referencing namespaces 4 and 5. It may be better to pick a different name for the namespace to avoid confusion (or use the current project namespace instead of adding a new namespace). Also, please be sure to follow the steps listed here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requesting_wiki_configuration_changes (particularly using an ?oldid=).
I hope I inserted the corrected link. By now projects are created in the namespace 4, the Wikipedia's namespace (Vikipedio:Projekto:ProjectName or Vikipedio:Vikiprojekto:ProjectName), so I ask if community wants to have a namespace Project (it will be Projekto:ProjectName or Vikiprojekto:ProjectName).

The localized namespace names, as their own namespace, have been added to eowiki per the above request.
