As our wiki grows I become more aware that any major re-organisation needs
doing now, before it becomes impossible. With that in mind I've taken the
first steps in categorizing the pages. I've been looking at extensions that
provide navigation aids, and see that category pages are essential to most of
those. That brings up this very thorny question of language pages.
Unless something is done about it, the Welcome page could have 20 or more
entries on its category page, depending on how active our translators have
been. This clearly gets to the point where the page is unreadable.
It has been said to me that we should be using namespaces for languages, and
that doing that would mean that in a search, for example, only pages in your
system language would be returned. I've only just started reading the
documentation, but I get the impression that this is not so.
I should add that we are sandbox testing the use of the translatewiki
extension and are currently considering the changes needed before
implementation.
Apart from
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Namespace and the pages linked
from there, is there any other reading that I should be considering?
