Description MZMcBride 2012-07-21 22:38:07 UTC
Currently MediaWiki's info action shows a table that looks similar to this:

---
                            Page   Talk page
                  Edits
Number of edits             10     3
Number of distinct authors  4      2
                 Watchlist
Number of watchers          1
---

Given that namespaces aren't always so cleanly paired like this (for example, the English Wikinews associates three namespaces together) and given that ?action=info is kind of 1:1 title to information based, I believe the talk page-related data should be removed. When someone queries ?title=Talk:Main_Page&action=info, they can retrieve the metadata about the talk page. Including it at ?title=Main_Page&action=info is a bad idea.
