Thanks. Is there any reason that the namespace parameter requires a number? I would seem simpler to me to just use the text form (e.g. -namespace:Appropedia_talk ) and not need to have this code in the family file.
That makes it possible to compare when namespaces on different wikis are 'the same' namespace. You probably won't need it, but for example on Wikipedia the bots check whether a language link is to a page in the same or in another namespace.
