Wikimedia Bugzilla is closed!

Done.

Hi, sorry to reopen the bug, but I do not see the "Portail" namespace on fr.wikisource.org

For example, it is not to be seen in the namespace combobox of the recent changes page, or of the special:allpages

Thanks,
Kip.

Fixed.

Thanks! We now have the "Portail" namespace!

However, the old pages named "Portail:..." and "Discussion:Portail:..." have not been moved to the new namespace. (this was the second part of my request above)

It seems that we cannot even access them to fix it manually ourselves:
The old pages are listed on
http://fr.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Sp%E9cial:Toutes_les_pages&from=Portaik&to=Portaill
but when we click on them, there is no text.

Same goes for the associated Discussion pages
http://fr.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Sp%C3%A9cial%3AToutes+les+pages&from=Portaik&to=Portaill&namespace=1

I am sure a very nice dev can fix this ;-)

Many thanks in advance,
Kip.

Note: the procedure is described there: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Using_custom_namespaces#Dealing_with_existing_pages

Forgot about this, my apologies. Done now.

The Portal pages are working, but it has been brought
to my attention that the Talk pages have not been moved.
They are still in the main namespace
(cf. http://fr.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Sp%C3%A9cial%3AToutes+les+pages&from=Portaik&to=Portaill&namespace=1 )

I think the problem here might be that the name has to be changed,
for example from "Discussion:Portail:Dictionnaires" to "Discussion Portail:Dictionnaires" (the first ":" becomes " " )

Is it possible to have that?

Sorry, we can't move these pages automatically. You can move them manually, though.

You can move them by page ID using the API.

No, because we cannot access the pages anymore (as I already said above).

OK, this is new. Apparently names of the type 'Discussion:Portail:something' are now handled as being invalid. Older versions of Mediawiki had no such rule, IIRC.

namespaceDupes.php, the script that moves "Portail:something" from the main namespace to "something" in the portail namespace, doesn't handle this case yet.

We're currently investigating how to change the script in order to find and fix these issues.

I've updated the migration script to handle this case, too.

The following pages could not be moved automatically to the right place since there was already a page at that place:

Those pages got moved to "{{{original name}}}--DUP".

Great, thanks!
