Create "Progetto" namespace on Italian Wikipedia
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: helios89

Description:
I would like to request the creation of project namespace for it.wikipedia.

And if possible to link the tab to [[MediaWiki:Nstab-progetto]] and the tab of
the talk to [[MediaWiki:Nstab-progetto-talk]].

Thank you very much in advance.

The Project namespace is usually named for the wiki, eg 'Wikipedia:'.

So this already exists.

If you want something different, can you be more specific?

I've done a little mistake, I would like a namespace "WikiProject"...

I can confirm Helios89's answer.

That namespace is intended to be used by thematic "WikiProject"s (in
Italian: "progetto"),
while the talk namesapce is intended to be used by thematic talk areas.

It has been [[:it:Wikipedia:Bar/Ancora sul namespace Progetto:|a talk]] on
it.wikipedia about the creation, that has led to a wide agreement.

I would like two new namespaces

"Progetto"
"Discussioni progetto"

Thanks a lot,

I would like two new namespaces"Progetto""Discussioni progetto"

The second one is the talk one ( discussioni = talk, in Italian language).

To summarize the past discussion in it.wiki on the topic for not italian speakers:

the new "Progetto:" namespace and its "Discussione progetto" counterpart are
needed from the italian community (large consensus in the cited discussion), as
it will be shorter to refer to the thematical project. E.g. [[Wikipedia:Progetto
Forme di vita]] will become more simply [[Progetto:Forme di vita]]. The
"Wikipedia:" namespace will remain of course in use for all the discussion and
service pages regarding the it.wiki as a whole. The existance of the "Project:"
namespace (another name for Wikipedia:) will not have any influx on the italian
community as the name is in english (so there is no possible confusion) and
almost nobody even knew of its existance previously to the cited discussion.

Not only (this i s just one point among the others).

It will also be usefull to have a clearer organization and arrangement of project
pages, with a clearer difference between pages about the whole Wikipedia project
(which will still be with their Wikipedia: prefix -and with its alias Project: ,
which is seldom used- ) and those about a single thematical WikiProject (which will
be with the new Progetto: prefix)

Anyhow I think that now the point is just to wait for the creation.
