Description Hydriz Scholz 2010-10-09 15:44:43 UTC
I have recently noticed that the Simple English Wikipedia does not contain the namespace "Portal", which is very unlike English Wikipedia.

I am filing this bug report to request for the server administrators to add the Portal namespace so that the Simple English Wikipedia community can create country portals.

Currently, there is a discussion ongoing about this.

I hope the administration at Wikimedia can look into this and consider adding the portal namespace for us.

Thank you.

Comment 1 Barras 2010-10-09 15:57:42 UTC
I think this bug is waste of time. We discussed having a portal namesspace and agreed to not have one. We put Wikiprojects/Portals and the like into the initiators userspace. The projects normally  disappear after a certain time, because we currently do not have the man power to maintain this.

This request should/can be closed, as it is very very unlikely that we will want this now.

Comment 2 Hydriz Scholz 2010-10-09 15:59:58 UTC
Okay. Thanks. But can the namespace just be installed? Then if it is really needed(strong support), then we can immediately start having portals.

Thanks.
Comment 3 Barras 2010-10-09 16:02:02 UTC
No. And strong support surely will not happen. I'd bet.
Comment 4 Hydriz Scholz 2010-10-09 16:04:27 UTC
Thanks. Bug closed.
