Namespaces are prefixes that separate articles from other logical sections of the wiki. Articles have no namespace prefix, so can be linked more easily. Because a page can have the same title in different namespaces, the prefix is included when making links.
Common namespaces include:
- Talk:
- Talk pages to discuss articles
- User:
- User pages
- User talk:
- User talk pages
- File:
- Images and other media
- Forum:
- Posts in the Uncyclopedia:Village Dump
- Category:
- Categories
Note: For files and categories, precede the link with a colon : to link to it: [[:File:Example.jpg]] or [[:Category:Example]]. Otherwise the image will be inserted or the page will be added to that category.
Searches can be filtered for specific namespaces. Perform a namespace-filtered search.
