Hi Ed, The information I think you're looking for is available via the API's sitematrix <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SiteMatrix#API> action:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox#action=sitematrix The Wikimedia projects are typically referred to as "projects" (in the context of their content and contributors' day-to-day work) or "sites" (usually in the context of their technical infrastructure and operations). A namespace is a concept used in MediaWiki to group pages by type at a high level. Examples of namespaces include "Talk" for discussion pages about articles, or "File" for pages about uploaded media files.
