I created {{TALKSPACE}} and its counterpart {{ARTICLESPACE}} after requesting the equivalent variables several times on this list.
I would be more than happy to see them replaced with the equivalent variables now that they seem to have proven their utility.

This (additional magic variables) is another story. If you start thinking how wiki knowledge propagates trough language communities how the distance between large and startup communities gets greather and greather you may ask yourself if this (core MediaWiki) is discrimantory or not. As a result functionality / infrastructure is unavailable at the majority of the projects. What I never understand is that oposition comes (mainly) from persons belonging to communities having the most benefit because "workarounds" are (already) available there, because they do not face particular problems (related to characters, fonts, scripts etc.).
The patterns about aproaching this is the same here: - "Is it good for me?" counts more then "Is it good for all?" - "If I do not need this why others should need / have it?".
