Although Japanese namespaces of the MediaWiki were changed last week, many users in ja.wikipedia oppose the changes. The users of the Japanese Wikipedia settled not to accept them temporally by [[w:ja:Wikipedia:井戸端/subj/名前空間名の変更への対応/投票|ballot]]. 20 users (17%) support the changes (変更を支持), but 96 users (83%) oppose them (変更に反対). Could you change namespaces of ja.wikipedia? What I request of you are as follow. Please add the previous namespaces ('トーク', '利用者・トーク', etc.) to "namespace-aliases". Thank you in advance. {{ns:1}} {{ns:Talk}} - トーク -> ノート {{ns:3}} {{ns:User_talk}} - 利用者・トーク -> 利用者‐会話 {{ns:5}} {{ns:Project_talk}} - Wikipedia・トーク -> Wikipedia‐ノート {{ns:7}} {{ns:File_talk}} - ファイル・トーク -> ファイル‐ノート {{ns:9}} {{ns:MediaWiki_talk}} - MediaWiki・トーク -> MediaWiki‐ノート {{ns:10}} {{ns:Template}} - テンプレート -> Template {{ns:11}} {{ns:Template_talk}} - テンプレート・トーク -> Template‐ノート {{ns:12}} {{ns:Help}} - ヘルプ -> Help {{ns:13}} {{ns:Help_talk}} - ヘルプ・トーク -> Help‐ノート {{ns:14}} {{ns:Category}} - カテゴリ -> Category {{ns:15}} {{ns:Category_talk}} - カテゴリ・トーク -> Category‐ノート {{ns:101}} - Portal・トーク -> Portal‐ノート

As Hisagi said, the poll asked "whether you support the changes" and many people opposed. In other words, ja-wikipedians don't want use the changed namespace names in whole. It means some people accept the changes partly and they (will) start discussing what names are nice for jawiki from now on. So, in the future (not so far), they might ask sysadmins to change namespace names in jawiki again.
Done. 'jawiki' => array( 'トーク' => NS_TALK, '利用者・トーク' => NS_USER_TALK, 'Wikipedia・トーク' => NS_PROJECT_TALK, 'ファイル・トーク' => NS_IMAGE_TALK, 'MediaWiki・トーク' => NS_MEDIAWIKI_TALK, 'テンプレート' => NS_TEMPLATE, 'テンプレート・トーク' => NS_TEMPLATE_TALK, 'ヘルプ' => NS_HELP, 'ヘルプ・トーク' => NS_HELP_TALK, 'カテゴリ' => NS_CATEGORY, 'カテゴリ・トーク' => NS_CATEGORY_TALK, "ポータル‐ノート" => 101, 'Portal‐ノート' => 101, 'Portal・トーク' => 101, ),
http://ja.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=namespaces|namespacealiases According to above API Result, your changes seem to be different from what I requested. Is the reflection to ja.wikipedia late...?
You wrote: Please add the previous namespaces ('トーク', '利用者・トーク', etc.) to "namespace-aliases". That's what I did. But apparently, 'トーク' is the current name of the namespace: <ns id="1" case="first-letter" subpages="" canonical="Talk" xml:space="preserve">トーク</ns> So something went wrong here. Which column in your table is the current name of the namespace, and wich is the alias that you want to have for the namespace?
The column 2 is the current one and the column 3 is the old one in Hisagi's comment #0. But now I have one problem to inform you. At [[:w:ja:Wikipedia:井戸端/subj/名前空間名の変更への対応#投票終了後の処理]] [1] , there is one question about this changing but not answered. It says the result of the poll [2] can be interpreted in two ways. The first is, as Hisagi said in comment #0, "jawiki community wants the namespace names to be reverted to old one immediately". But the another is "jawiki community don't wants to use the current namespace names, therefore it must be modified based the discussion in jawiki". So the question asks "Is it not so serious?" or "Don't we have to discuss it?" In my opinion, it seems not so clear enough to request to change them at the present time, but only confuses sysadmins.

(In reply to comment #5) I'm sorry that my requests were difficult for understand. My requests are: to change A to B in namespaces, to remove B from namespace-aliases, to add A to namespace-aliases.

I'd like to remind admins that most of aokomoriuta's comment #6 is irrelevant to the authenticity of Hisagi's request. It was decided on the voting process that changes (actually reverts) of namespaces be made just as comment #7. I assure you that Hisagi's request (= comment #7) is valid and authentic. (It is possible that futher minor changes be requested, probabably 10-12 months from now, but that is a different question and has nothing to do with this request.)
If the main namespace names have to be changed, this needs to be done on translatewiki.net, so that the core files will be updated. Please update this ticket when the config on translatewiki.net has been updated so that we can apply the change to the site.

They want to change namespace names only in jawiki, not MediaWiki default (translatewiki.net). This means they want settings working same as following setting in LocalSettings: $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_TALK] = 'ノート'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_USER_TALK] = '利用者‐会話'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_PROJECT_TALK] = 'Wikipedia‐ノート'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_FILE_TALK] = 'ファイル‐ノート'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_MEDIAWIKI_TALK] = 'MediaWiki‐ノート'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_TEMPLATE] = 'Template'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_TEMPLATE_TALK] = 'Template‐ノート'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_HELP] = 'Help'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_HELP_TALK] = 'Help‐ノート'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_CATEGORY] = 'Category'; $wgExtraNamespaces[NS_CATEGORY_TALK] = 'Category‐ノート';
(In reply to comment #9) Most of voters must know translatewiki.net, and this request is by users in ja.wikipedia, for only ja.wikipedia. Can't we decide on original namespace-names against MediaWiki standard by translatewiki.net?

In the code in comment 12, the talk namespaces are using a different set of characters for the latin part than the non-talk-namespaces which use latin characters from the ASCII subset of Unicode. Is this intentional?
Forget comment 13, it was just my text editor Eclipse making fun of me.
