<span id="complete-list-of-namespaces"></span>
== <span class="mw-headline">Complete List of Namespaces</span> ==

{| class="wikitable wikitable" width="100%"
|-
! width="8%"| Namespace
! Purpose
! width="12%"| Example
|-
| (main)
| Contains all the articles about the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] body of work.
| [[Main Page]]
|-
| <code>Talk</code>
| Contains discussion pages about the articles in the main namespace, one for each main-namespace page.
| [[Talk:Main Page]]
|-
| <code>User</code>
| Contains user pages - one page (and possibly subpages) for each user - see [[HRWiki:User space]].
| [[User:JoeyDay]]
|-
| <code>User talk</code>
| Contains pages used to discuss things specifically with other users—add a message to the user talk page of the user you want to contact.
| [[User talk:JoeyDay]]
|-
| <code>HRWiki</code>
| Contains pages that are specifically about the wiki, rather than the Homestar Runner body of work—behind-the-scenes administration and similar things.
| [[HRWiki:The Stick]]
|-
| <code>HRWiki talk</code>
| Discussions about the HRWiki pages, one for each HRWiki page (similar to Talk).
| [[HRWiki talk:Standards]]
|-
| <code>File</code> and <code>Media</code>
| When a file is uploaded, it goes into the File namespace. A link labeled [[File:filename]] will include the image in a page; clicking on it will go to an information page. [[:File:filename]] will be a normal text link to that information page and [[Media:filename]] a direct link straight to the file. This namespace used to be called Image (which still works as an alias).
| [[File:logo.png]]<br />
[/w/images/1/1b/logo.png Media:logo.png]
|-
| <code>File talk</code>
| Same as Talk, but for files.
| [[File talk:HRWikiPuzzle.png]]
|-
| <code>MediaWiki</code>
| Contains pages that control some part of how the wiki functions, and all the messages displayed by the wiki (so that users of the [[MediaWiki]] software can translate them). Only sysops can edit these pages, but anyone can make suggestions on the MediaWiki talk pages.
| [[MediaWiki:Sitenotice]]
|-
| <code>MediaWiki talk</code>
| Same as Talk, for MediaWiki pages. Used even less often than Image talk - the MediaWiki pages are relatively static.
| [[MediaWiki talk:Sitenotice]]
|-
| <code>Template</code>
| Contains pages that are intended to be included in another page with [[Help:Template|{{curly braces}}]]. If you use the curly braces and don't specify a namespace, the templates will come from here.
| [[Template:stub]]
|-
| <code>Template talk</code>
| Same as Talk, for the templates.
| [[Template talk:done]]
|-
| <code>Help</code>
| Contains pages designed to help people learn how to use the wiki.
| [[Help:Contents]]
|-
| <code>Help talk</code>
| Same as Talk, for Help pages.
| [[Help talk:Contents]]
|-
| <code>Category</code>
| These pages don't have much content; rather, they are used to group other pages. Adding [[Category:categoryname]] to any page will put it in that category. Like with Image, you can use [[:Category:categoryname]] to link to a category.
| [[Category:Games]]
|-
| <code>Category talk</code>
| Same as Talk, for the categories.
| [[Category talk:Main Characters]]
|-
| <code>STUFF</code>
| Obsolete. This namespace contained the pages used in [[HRWiki:STUFF|STUFF]] before it was decommissioned.
|
|-
| <code>Subtitles</code>
| Contains the XML data used for the [[HRWiki:Subtitles|subtitles project]].
| [[Subtitles:intro/en]]
|-
| <code>Subtitles talk</code>
| Same as Talk, for discussing the subtitles scripts.
| [[Subtitles talk:Characters]]
|-
| <code>Special</code>
| This doesn't actually contain editable pages, but rather automated scripts, for various purposes such as the watch list and [/wiki/Special:RecentChanges recent changes]. It also has important pages for the maintenance of the wiki.
| [/wiki/Special:SpecialPages Special:Specialpages]

<span id="namespace-aliases"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Namespace aliases</span> ===

The following namespaces have aliases. These can be used as [[Template:shortcut|shortcuts]].

{| class="wikitable wikitable" width="25%"
|-
! width="33%"| Namespace
! width="33%"| Alias
! Example
|-
| <code>HRWiki</code>
| <code>HRW</code>
| [[HRWiki:TS|HRW:TS]]
|-
| <code>HRWiki talk</code>
| <code>HRWT</code>
| [[HRWiki talk:MOS|HRWT:MOS]]
|-
| <code>Special</code>
| <code>SP</code>
| [/wiki/Special:RecentChanges SP:RC]
|}

<span id="interwiki-links"></span>
== <span class="mw-headline">Interwiki Links</span> ==

Although interwiki prefixes are not namespaces, you can use the namespace style to link to pages on other sites.
