Hi, Is there some effective way to retrieve a list of namespaces for a wiki? In huggle we have that hardcoded now, but that kind of suck, because every wiki can have some custom NS. Example: https://github.com/huggle/huggle3-qt-lx/blob/master/huggle/wikipage.hpp //! Namespaces enum MediaWikiNS { MediaWikiNS_Main, MediaWikiNS_Talk, MediaWikiNS_Project, MediaWikiNS_ProjectTalk, MediaWikiNS_User, MediaWikiNS_UserTalk, MediaWikiNS_Help, MediaWikiNS_HelpTalk, MediaWikiNS_Category, MediaWikiNS_CategoryTalk, MediaWikiNS_Mediawiki, MediaWikiNS_MediawikiTalk, MediaWikiNS_File, MediaWikiNS_FileTalk, MediaWikiNS_Portal, MediaWikiNS_PortalTalk, MediaWikiNS_Special }; Is there a way to retrieve: * Namespace original name (the english one which can be used on any language wiki, like User or Talk) and its talk id * Namespace localized name and its talk id (User talk for User) * Namespace ID for every namespace that is known by a wiki? _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
