I was just making a fresh install, to see if that would solve my problem with the bots not running successfully.

I saw that in the family file there is the following (using the example from Appropedia):

         self.namespaces[4] = {
             '_default': u'Appropedia', #Specify the project namespace here. Other
         }                               #namespaces will be set to MediaWiki default.
 
         self.namespaces[5] = {
             '_default': u'Appropedia talk',

I'm trying to get a deeper understanding here - what is the purpose of this? In our case we have 2 custom namespaces, so I assume I need to add these here as well:

         self.namespaces[100] = {
             '_default': u'Portal',
 
         self.namespaces[101] = {
             '_default': u'Portal talk',


         self.namespaces[102] = {
             '_default': u'Original', #Specify the project namespace here. Other
         }                               #namespaces will be set to MediaWiki default.
 
         self.namespaces[103] = {
             '_default': u'Original talk',

Thanks,
Chris
