This is due to how namespaces work. It is incorrect to state that "TALKSPACE ==
TALKSPACEE", because that isn't the case when namespaces contain accented
characters.
NAMESPACE and TALKSPACE should use the display text form (with
space) instead of the db key form (with underscore), as
PAGENAME and FULLPAGENAME do.
For example on my local test wiki a page 'OneSix talk:Very
Silly Page' shows this code:
*{{PAGENAME}}
*{{FULLPAGENAME}}
*{{NAMESPACE}}
*{{TALKSPACE}}
like:
*Very Silly Page
*OneSix talk:Very Silly Page
*OneSix_talk
*OneSix_talk
The NAMESPACE and TALKSPACE are using the raw key form
unnecessarily; for consistency they should use spaces here.
