If/when we get round to adding in a mechanism for populating the Help namespace (and some content to go with it), I expect we'll be adding in the usual checks to ensure that pages don't exist, or if so, that the last editor was "MediaWiki default", prior to changing things.

Hi,

I am creating site Help pages in my Mediawiki v1.5.6's 'Help:' namespace.

I could put my Help pages under my 'Projectname:' namespace but I like them in the more intuitive 'Help' namespace. Is that a *bad* idea?

**I am worried** that future upgrades to Mediawiki may include their own 'Help:' files there that would collide with the ones I am making there now (when I upgrade).

Anyone know if that is likely to ever really happen?

Thanks!

Roger :-) TESOLW.org (on Mediawiki v1.5.6)
