Addition of WP: "short" namespace to the Simple English Wikipedia
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description:
Hello,

Could we possibly have the following code added to our wiki?

$wgNamespaceAliases['WP'] = NS_PROJECT;

The above link shows consensus.

We have deleted all of the pages currently with the WP: prefix that were in the mainspace and recreated them in the Project: namespace to avoid conflicts.

Many thanks for your help in this matter.

UPDATE: We have undeleted all of the pages as we have been told that they will be automatically moved out of the way. We have still recreated them in the Project: namespace however. Is it possible for the moved pages to be bulk removed by a dev to save us the hassle?

Thanks,

BG7

Done.

Current aliases on simplewiki:

'simplewiki' => array(
	'WP' => NS_PROJECT,
),

Some pages had to be moved out of the way, they've been renamed to *--DUP, where * is their old name.
