== re: userpage vs username page ==
 
Mainly, it's because I cut my teeth on MediaWiki/Wikipedia, where userpages are strictly separated from "articles". But I also think it makes sense
 
And, you may have noticed, but you get a screaming orange bar when someone leaves you a message at <nowiki>[[user_talk:LyingBrian]]</nowiki>. Not so much for [[LyingBrian]]. I like your italic hack for this, but ideally I'd like to see people move their userpages to the user namespace. I don't expect this to happen anytime before JEEP implements a unified login, though... :/ -- [[User:Mr. Flay|Mr.]] [[User_talk:Mr. Flay|Flay]] 10:05, 13 August 2007 (MDT)
 
Heh, no problem. Yeah, what I mean is that userpages should ideally be at [[User:Whatever]], with a redirect/link from [[Whatever]]. For the old wiki, there were no namespaces to worry about, so everybody got into the habit of making their page at their name, and that's how they got moved over. The terminology I'm using is far from precise, it's not your fault. (I'm trying to use "userpage" for [[User:Whatever]] and "username page" for [[Whatever]]). -- [[User:Mr. Flay|Mr.]] [[User_talk:Mr. Flay|Flay]] 15:22, 13 August 2007 (MDT)
:So, what you're saying is that UserPages should actually be in the User namespace, rather than in the Main namespace where the majority of them are? This is going to take a while to fix! [[User:Somestrangeflea|Somestrangeflea]] 15:45, 13 August 2007 (MDT)
::It's okay, once you're logged in it's fairly straightforward with the [[help:Move|Move]] command, and even the page history gets saved, and the old name ([[somestrangeflea]] in your case) becomes an automatic redirect. It's not as bad as it sounds... [[User:Mr. Flay|Mr. Flay]] 16:11, 14 August 2007 (MDT)
