Description Tim Smith 2006-01-23 20:01:51 UTC
The Go button is currently namespace-oblivious, requiring explicit prefixes for
all but the main namespace.  I propose a new namespace property allowing the Go
button to prepend namespace prefixes to queries.  For example, were this
property set for an "Author:" namespace on the English Wikisource, queries for
"William Shakespeare" could Go to Author:William Shakespeare instead of, as now,
"No page with that title exists".
Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2006-01-23 20:03:15 UTC
Pending on completion of namespace manager merge.
Comment 2 Thomas Bleher 2009-08-15 19:39:27 UTC
This was added in r53600 and r53618, the config variable is $wgSecondaryGoNamespaces.
Comment 3 Thomas Bleher 2009-10-17 12:04:36 UTC
The change was unfortunately reverted in r55456. Reopening...
