අවකාශ ලැයිස්තුව

The two virtual namespaces, main namespace and 15 auxiliary namespaces in this project (Meta) are as follows (the variables for them are also shown).

Variables	Alternate syntax	Name, linked to list of all such pages	Number of pages	Notes
{{ns:-2}}	{{ns:media}}	"මාධ්‍යය"		virtual namespace for images and other files themselves, as opposed to the image description pages; see also below
{{ns:-1}}	{{ns:special}}	"විශේෂ"		virtual namespace for special pages (list: Special:SpecialPages)
{{ns:0}}		main	disabled	main namespace, no prefix, or optionally a colon (this is needed when using the page as template)
{{ns:1}}	{{ns:talk}}	සාකච්ඡාව	disabled	see Help:Talk page for this and the following odd-numbered namespaces
{{ns:2}}	{{ns:user}}	පරිශීලක	disabled	registered users (list: Special:ListUsers) have a user homepage User:username (linked to by the system from user names in lists of edits, e.g. on page histories, and from signatures on talk pages); this and subpages of it can be used to present oneself, for project-related bookmarks, and for drafts, tests, and other working material. One can put here material to give oneself one-step access to it from any page in the same project, and one can put here links to give oneself two-step access to the link targets from any page in the same project as the user page. For users who do not log in, the same applies, with the IP as username. Dynamic IPs are a complication.
{{ns:3}}	{{ns:user_talk}}	පරිශීලක සාකච්ඡාව	disabled
{{ns:4}}	{{ns:project}}	විකිපොත්	disabled	the project namespace for matters about the project, such as guidelines and discussions; see also the [[Help:|Help:]] namespace
{{ns:5}}	{{ns:project_talk}}	විකිපොත් සාකච්ඡාව	disabled
{{ns:6}}	{{ns:file}}	ගොනුව	disabled	images and other uploaded files, with image description pages (list: Special:ListFiles)
{{ns:7}}	{{ns:file_talk}}	ගොනුව සාකච්ඡාව	disabled
{{ns:8}}	{{ns:mediawiki}}	මාධ්‍යවිකි	disabled	system messages (list: Special:AllMessages), editable by users, or if protected, by sysops
{{ns:9}}	{{ns:mediawiki_talk}}	මාධ්‍යවිකි සාකච්ඡාව	disabled
{{ns:10}}	{{ns:template}}	සැකිල්ල	disabled	the default namespace for templates: the wikitext code {{name }} refers to and includes the page Template:name
{{ns:11}}	{{ns:template_talk}}	සැකිලි සාකච්ඡාව	disabled
{{ns:12}}	{{ns:help}}	උදවු	disabled	typically used for the MediaWiki User's Guide, with the wikitext a frequently refreshed copy of the master version on Meta-Wikipedia, but with project-specific templates
{{ns:13}}	{{ns:help_talk}}	උදවු සාකච්ඡාව	disabled
{{ns:14}}	{{ns:category}}	ප්‍රවර්ගය	disabled	each page (list: Special:Categories) represents a category of pages, with each category page displaying a list of pages in that category and optional additional text.
{{ns:15}}	{{ns:category_talk}}	ප්‍රවර්ග සාකච්ඡාව	disabled

Note that all characters of namespace prefixes are case-insensitive, so one can write, for example, "mediawiki". Also, underscores in namespace prefixes are equivalent to any non-zero number of spaces (leading or trailing spaces or underscores are ignored) : underscores are used only when encoding URLs but treated otherwise like spaces.

These names are set in the MessagesXX.php language files. The English defaults are below:

$namespaceNames = array(
    NS_MEDIA            => 'Media',
    NS_SPECIAL          => 'Special',
    NS_MAIN                => '',
    NS_TALK                => 'Talk',
    NS_USER             => 'User',
    NS_USER_TALK        => 'User_talk',
    # NS_PROJECT set by $wgMetaNamespace
    NS_PROJECT_TALK     => '$1_talk',
    NS_FILE             => 'File',
    NS_FILE_TALK        => 'File_talk',
    NS_MEDIAWIKI        => 'MediaWiki',
    NS_MEDIAWIKI_TALK   => 'MediaWiki_talk',
    NS_TEMPLATE         => 'Template',
    NS_TEMPLATE_TALK    => 'Template_talk',
    NS_HELP             => 'Help',
    NS_HELP_TALK        => 'Help_talk',
    NS_CATEGORY         => 'Category',
    NS_CATEGORY_TALK    => 'Category_talk',
);
