To list all available namespaces and their ID numbers in MediaWiki you have to query MediaWiki’s api.

Simpy open the following address in your browser:

http://www.mywebsite.tld/mediawiki_installation/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=namespaces

*replacing http://www.mywebsite.tld/mediawiki_installation with the path to your MediaWiki page.

This will return a XML representation of Namespaces data.

You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.
