Manual:$wgContentNamespaces - MediaWiki

Namespaces which are considered to contain real content, or articles
Introduced in version: 1.7.0 (r14738) Removed in version: Still in use Allowed values: (Array of namespace indexes) Default value: [ NS_MAIN ]

Details

$wgContentNamespaces exists to allow custom namespaces to be acknowledged as containing useful content for the purpose of the following features:

Extension:Popups, Special:Random, Special:Statistics, Special:AncientPages, Special:DeadendPages, Special:FewestRevisions, Special:LonelyPages, Special:MostCategories, Special:MostInterwikis, Special:RandomPage, Special:ShortPages, Special:LongPages, Special:UncategorizedPages, Special:WithoutInterwiki, {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}, Notifications ^[1]

Useful if additional namespaces also contain "content" which should be considered when choosing a random page or generating a count of the number of articles in the wiki. It also serves as the default for $wgExemptFromUserRobotsControl , which means that __NOINDEX__ and __NOFOLLOW__ magic words won't work in these namespaces.

The main namespace is considered a content namespace, as are other namespaces in this array, referenced by index.

Example:

$wgContentNamespaces = [ 0, 12, 112 ];

$wgContentNamespaces = [ NS_MAIN, NS_HELP, NS_PROJECT, NS_CUSTOMNAMESPACE ];

This does not control which namespaces the full-text search engine defaults to searching; that must be configured separately using $wgNamespacesToBeSearchedDefault .

The set of content namespaces for a wiki can be retrieved via the siteinfo API endpoint, e.g. action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=namespaces, and filter for namespaces with "content": true.
