            Bug ID: 43934
           Summary: harmonize namespaces towards languages and projects
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: wmf-deployment
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General/Unknown
          Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org

Within a project, there is no harmonization between the numbers of namespaces
and their titles in all languages​​.
And no more in the various projects.


I propose to harmonize namespaces numbers and their names (like namespaces -2
to 10) but for mediawiki namespaces, but for the custom namespaces

For example:
* 100-699: For all projects and languages​​:
** 100-101 : Portal
** 102-103 : Project
** 104-105 : Books
** 106-107 : Author
** 108-109 ...

which allows 250 possibilities of different namespaces

* 700-999: Free for individual projects if there is no common terms


I propose, as a first step to study:
- The feasibility
- The software costs it imposes, at query the databases and servers

The idea can be studied by parojet project starting with the smallest:
- Wikivoyage
- Wikiversity
to test the procedure, the cost processor and database queries

then ramp up passing more bigger project

Thanks.
