I'm trying to list all the pages in the user namespace on a wiki, NOT the main namespace, but I can't figure this out. Here's what I'm using to query a generator for "allpages":

{ 'action':'query', 'generator':'allpages', 'gaplimit':'5', 'gapfrom':'Foo, 'prop':'links|categories', 'plnamespaces':'2' }

This query looks at the first 5 pages in the main namespace starting from Foo, and returns the categories and links to the User namespace for each of those page. plnamespace applies to the prop=links; allpages uses apnamespace, and since allpages is being used as a generator it needs to be gapnamespace:

{ 'action':'query', 'generator':'allpages', 'gapnamespaces':'2' 'gaplimit':'5', 'gapfrom':'Foo, 'prop':'links|categories', }
