From: "Magnus Manske" Magnus.Manske@epost.de
The original software *did* stay within the current namespace if no other was explicitly given. So, "[[test]]" on the page "[[user:Magnus Manske]]" did link to "[[user:test]]" instead of "[[test]]". At that time, I still planned a "stable:" namespace for approved articles, which would automatically link only to other stable articles.
It's already there? So all we would have to do is take care that the content: namespace doesn't show up in the title? (Plus change some code that assumes that any title that contains a ":" is not content.) Can I, can I, can I? Please? :-) As far as I can see this actually makes the code simpeler because titles will always have the same format.
The "blank" namespace was (and still should be) accessible through
"[[:Main
Page]]" (note the leading colon).
Yup, works on my site.
