Sorry I made a typo: they asked us to use & for & (not $amp;, which was the
typo I made). The directions for using & can be found here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Custom_namespaces
So that would be Me&You
I've tried filling in the name as [[MediaWiki:Nstab-Me&You]], but it didnt work.
In summary again, when defining the namespace in the following way:
Me&You - it comes out OK everywhere except the database table (mw_page) puts the
namespace number as 0 (and not as 100+ as it should be)
Me&You: works ok everywhere, except the "article" tab comes out messed up
the N-stab stuff.
thanks!

That _should_ work, but hasn't been tested.
I've followed the directions for
$wgExtraNamespaces which
ask to use $amp; for &,
Any such direction is *wildly* incorrect and has no basis in fact.
Definitely do not do that, as it will *not* work.
Please let us know where you found these directions so they may be
corrected.
I can get this to work if I use just the & as it
is, but the main
"article" tab comes messed up. It shows this:
"<nstab-Me&You>" instead of "article"
I think this is due to a bug in wfEmptyMsg().
To work around, try filling in the name in [[MediaWiki:Nstab-Me&You]].
