New subject: [Mediawiki-l] Template namespace question >> renamed to Resources but still not appearing as such....

3 Apr 2007

I'm reposting my "help" question since I had no response...

I'm using MediaWiki 1.9.3.  I had a question about the Template namespace. 
 I want to use the functionality of the Template namespace but want an 
alternative display name (i.e., Resource). So, I updated this  file: 
\includes\Namespace.php by change the canonical name from "Template" 
to "Resource" and Template_talk" to "Resource_talk" (see below).
Problem, 
though, is that the word "Template:XXX" still appears as part of the page 
name or if I include on a pages {{xxx}}. I thought by updating the 
Namespace.php file that pages would appear with "Resource:XXX."  Are there 
other pages I must change/customize as well?  Any advice?

$wgCanonicalNamespaceNames = array(
        NS_MEDIA            => 'Media',
        NS_SPECIAL          => 'Special',
        NS_TALK             => 'Talk',
        NS_USER             => 'User',
        NS_USER_TALK        => 'User_talk',
        NS_PROJECT          => 'Project',
        NS_PROJECT_TALK     => 'Project_talk',
        NS_IMAGE            => 'Image',
        NS_IMAGE_TALK       => 'Image_talk',
        NS_MEDIAWIKI        => 'MediaWiki',
        NS_MEDIAWIKI_TALK   => 'MediaWiki_talk',
        NS_TEMPLATE         => 'Resource',
        NS_TEMPLATE_TALK    => 'Resource_talk',
        NS_HELP             => 'Help',
        NS_HELP_TALK        => 'Help_talk',
        NS_CATEGORY         => 'Category',
        NS_CATEGORY_TALK    => 'Category_talk',
