Help:Namespaces

Pages in this wiki are divided into a number of namespaces. This is a way of dividing the pages within the wiki depending on their purpose. When you look at a page, the namespace is shown in the heading before the page title. For example, the heading for this article is "Help:Namespaces", indicating that the page is called Namespaces and is in the Help namespace. If no namespace is shown in the heading, the page is in the Main namespace.

The namespaces are:

(Main) - this namespace is used for the main content of this wiki, i.e. articles pertaining to the Festiniog Railway and related railways
Talk - discussions about articles in the Main namespace
User - pages belonging to users of this wiki
User talk - mainly used so that users can communicate with each other. You can send a message to another user by putting it on their User talk page
Festipedia - pages about the project, including To Do lists, licenses, disclaimers, policies, guidelines and other useful information
Festipedia talk - discussion pages for the Wiki pages
