Википедия: пространство имен проекта

На этой странице приводится руководство по содержанию проекта Википедии на английском языке . Это общепринятый стандарт, которому редакторы должны стараться следовать, хотя с ним лучше всего обращаться со здравым смыслом , и в некоторых случаях могут применяться исключения . Любые существенные изменения на этой странице должны отражать консенсус . В случае сомнений сначала обсудите на странице обсуждения .

Это руководство вкратце: Страницы проекта предназначены для информации или обсуждения Википедии. Их следует использовать для того, чтобы участники Википедии могли лучше участвовать в жизни сообщества, и не использовать их в чрезмерных количествах для несвязанных целей или для нанесения ущерба репутации проекта.

Пространство имен проекта или пространство имен Википедии - это пространство имен, состоящее из страниц администрирования с информацией или обсуждениями Википедии . Страницы в этом пространстве имен всегда будут иметь префикс Википедии: . Они также могут быть достигнуты с помощью псевдонима WP: или стандартный (для любой MediaWiki сайта) префикс проекта: . Номер его пространства имен - четыре (4).

Терминология

• Страницы проекта или страницы Википедии - это страницы в пространствах имен Wikipedia и Wikipedia talk. Страницы WikiProject, которые включены в пространство имен Wikipedia, обычно называются страницами WikiProject, чтобы отличать их от страниц проекта в целом.
• Мета - некоторые люди называют страницы в пространстве имен проекта мета-страницами . Однако это может сбивать с толку, потому что Meta - это фактически название сайта, посвященного всем проектам Викимедиа, на сайте meta.wikimedia.org .

Содержание

Страницы в «пространстве имен проекта» сами по себе не являются частью энциклопедии . Эти административные страницы предназначены для использования редакторами или автоматизированными инструментами для организации и управления энциклопедией. Следовательно, им, как правило, не нужно соответствовать тем же протоколам содержания или стилевым соглашениям, что и статьи. Тем не менее, эти страницы, как и со всеми страницами, должны быть доступны и должны соответствовать Википедии поведения и правовые политики.

Пространство имен проекта не является бесплатным веб-хостингом и не должно использоваться в качестве долгосрочного архива для размещения страниц, которые выглядят как статьи. Статьи в разрабатываемом пространстве имен проекта могут быть перемещены в черновик пространства имен или черновик пользовательского пространства, чтобы дать время для их разработки и обратной связи перед перемещением в основное пространство Википедии. Застрявшие или заброшенные черновики и страницы в пространстве имен проекта, которые нарушают политики, применимые к страницам без содержания, могут быть удалены . Редакторы не могут нарушать авторские права или оскорблять где-либо в Википедии. По критериям скорейшего удаления, эти типы страниц подлежат немедленному удалению. См ниже для получения дополнительной информации.

Страницы в пространстве имен проекта

Страницы пространства имен проекта организованы в соответствии с их функциями в общей схеме проекта. Сюда входят официальные политики и руководства Википедии, страницы процессов, страницы обсуждений, дополнительные эссе, страницы обслуживания, информационные страницы и исторические страницы.

Списки страниц в пространстве имен проекта см .:

• Википедия: каталоги и индексы - удобный список каталогов и индексов Википедии.
• Википедия: Каталог отделов - список различных административных подразделений Википедии.
• Wikipedia:Editor's index to Wikipedia – an enormous list of the Wikipedia community, intended to help find anything not in the encyclopedia itself.

A main gateway for the project namespace is Community portal. The Community Portal includes categorized links to the more commonly used pages related to the project. A link to the Community Portal page is available in the sidebar.

Policies and guidelines pages

Policies and guidelines pages describe Wikipedia's best practice and clarify principles that are widely accepted by the community and have been through the Wikipedia review process. These pages are marked with the {{policy}}, {{guideline}} or {{MoS guideline}} template. For summaries of key policies, see List of policies. For summaries of key guidelines, see List of guidelines. For summaries of guidelines about Wikipedia's house style, see the Manual of Style contents page. For information on editing policies or guidelines see Edits to policies and guidelines.

• Category:Wikipedia policies – contains important rules that are widely accepted and procedures for important processes such as deletion; there are relatively few of those.
• Category:Wikipedia guidelines – contains consensual rules-of-thumb that are not strict, but are considered by most editors to be useful most of the time.
• Category:Wikipedia Manual of Style – contains style guidelines widely accepted among editors.

Process pages

Process pages help facilitate application of the policies and guidelines governing all Wikipedia pages (e.g., Wikipedia:Articles for deletion). See Wikipedia processes for details.

• Category:Wikipedia processes

Information and discussions

Many pages in the Wikipedia namespace have nothing to do with rules or implementation of those rules, and thus do not belong in the above categories. See Wikipedia:The difference between policies, guidelines and essays for more information.

Discussion and noticeboard pages

Some pages are designed for discussions, such as the Village pumps. Others serve as noticeboards to draw attention to discussions taking place elsewhere, such as the centralized discussions page and various requests for comments pages. While many of these pages operate like talk pages, some of them have posting rules (at the top of the page) which may be administratively enforced, and they also have their own talk pages, usually about the management of the noticeboard or other process in question. To ask a question or make a request, see the request directory. For a listing of ongoing discussions and current requests, see the dashboard.

• Category:Wikipedia requests

Maintenance pages

Maintenance pages are used to help facilitate the organization and clean-up of articles to bring them up to encyclopedic standards. These editor- and bot-generated pages typically contain articles and other pages requiring maintenance or attention. (e.g., Wikipedia:Dusty articles). The Special namespace also contains bot generated maintenance reports (e.g. Special:UncategorizedPages). See Wikipedia maintenance for details.

• Category:Wikipedia maintenance
• Special:SpecialPages

How-to and information pages

Informative and instructional pages are typically edited by the community; while not policies or guidelines themselves, they are intended to supplement or clarify Wikipedia guidelines, policies, or other Wikipedia processes and practices that are communal norms. Where essay pages offer advice or opinions through viewpoints, information pages should supplement or clarify technical or factual information about Wikipedia in an impartial way. In comparison to policies and guidelines, information pages, like essay pages, have a limited status, and can reflect varying levels of consensus and vetting. These pages are typically marked with the {{Information page}}, {{Wikipedia how-to}}, or {{Supplement}}^[1] template.

There is a large amount of overlap between the Help namespace (which provides mainly technical information) and the Wikipedia namespace (which provides mainly procedural information and interpretation). For this reason, redirects and hatnotes are often set up between these two namespaces. See Help:About help pages for more information. For a listing of how-to and information pages, see the help directory.

• Category:Wikipedia how-to
• Category:Wikipedia supplemental pages

Essay pages

Essays about Wikipedia may be written by anyone; some represent widespread norms, others only represent minority viewpoints. Essays can be long monologues or short theses, serious or funny, informative or opinionated. Essays like information pages have no official status, and do not speak for the Wikipedia community as they may be created and edited without overall community oversight. Essays are typically marked with one of the various {{essay}} templates. See Wikipedia:Essays for more information. For a listing of essays, see the essay directory.

• Category:Wikipedia essays

WikiProject pages

Pages of a WikiProject are the central place for editor collaboration and organization on a particular topic area. Many WikiProjects compose "advice essays" about how to apply Wikipedia's policies and guidelines to their specific subject area. Pages with Wikipedia:WikiProject prefix form a WikiProject pseudo-namespace. These pages are typically marked with the {{WikiProject status}} or {{WikiProject advice}} template. For a listing of projects, see the directory of WikiProjects. For additional resources, or if you have any questions, please visit the WikiProject Council.

• Category:WikiProjects

Historical pages

A historical page or process is one which is no longer in use, or is no longer relevant or consensus has changed about its content. They are kept as a record of past Wikipedia processes to give context to historical discussions and to inform future discussions on similar topics. These pages are typically marked with the {{historical}}, {{superseded}} or {{dormant}} template. See HISTORICAL for more details.

• Wikipedia:Historical archive
• Wikipedia:History of Wikipedian processes and people

Creating new project pages

Essays and information pages may be established by writing them and adding {{Essay}}, {{Information page}}, {{Wikipedia how-to}}, or similar templates to the page. Essays and information pages in the "Wikipedia namespace" should not be used to create an alternative rule set. Creation of new guideline and policy pages require discussion and a high level of consensus from the entire community before publication (see WP:PROPOSAL for procedural details). For general recommendations about the creation and improvement of existing guideline and policy pages, see Wikipedia:Policy writing is hard.

The project namespace contains many pages and a lot of information. Try to avoid creating new pages unnecessarily. Before creating a new page, you should consider looking through the topical index, essay directory and help directory to see if the material belongs at a page that already exists. It is strongly recommended that you propose a WikiProject at the proposal page, if there are enough willing editors to participate in the project. Already existing WikiProjects can be found in the directory of WikiProjects.

Deletion of project pages

The usual deletion process is to post a request at miscellany for deletion to have project pages deleted. Make sure that a notice of the request is posted to the talk page of the affected project. If the project is under a parent WikiProject, a notice should be posted there as well. However, if editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page. Disputes over page content are usually not dealt with by deleting the page, except in severe cases. The content issues should be discussed at the relevant talk page, and other methods of dispute resolution should be used first, such as listing on "requests for comments" for further input. Essays, information pages, and other informal pages that are only supported by a small minority of the community may be moved to the primary author's userspace over deletion. The Wikipedia community has historically tolerated a wide range of Wikipedia related subjects and viewpoints on user pages.

Policies, guidelines and process pages should not be nominated for deletion, as such nominations will probably be considered disruptive, and the ensuing discussions closed early. The {{Disputed tag}} template is typically used for claims that an essay, WikiProject advice or information page was recently assigned guideline or policy status without proper or sufficient consensus being established. See WP:Local consensus for more details.

It is generally preferable that inactive WikiProjects not be deleted, but instead be marked as {{WikiProject status|inactive}}, or redirected to a relevant WikiProject, or changed to a task force of a parent WikiProject, unless the WikiProject was incompletely created or is entirely undesirable. See WP:INACTIVEWP for more details.

If a project page clearly satisfies a "general" speedy deletion criterion, it should be tagged with the appropriate template. For issues only affecting specific revisions on a page (where other page versions are fine) revision delete is usually more appropriate. To request revision-deletion for copyright violations, see {{Copyvio-revdel}} for details.

Namespace history

The Wikipedia namespace began after the January 2002 release of the Phase II software. Prior to that, an index of related pages was maintained at Wikipedia utilities, which remained for some time afterwards at Wikipedia:Utilities. This list of pages in the project namespace has been replaced by the pages as described above.

Project namespace search

By default Wikipedia's search engine is restricted to the Article namespace. Typing the project page prefix Wikipedia: (Wikipedia followed by a colon) or WP: (WP followed by a colon) provides search results for the "Wikipedia namespace". You can also use the Special:Search box below to locate Wikipedia/Project namespace pages. See Help:Searching for more information.

Project namespace banners

See Wikipedia:Template messages/Wikipedia namespace for a listing of Wikipedia namespace banners.

Notes

^ The {{Supplement}} template is intended as a separate "supplement" banner used for pages derived from policy improvement conversations. The template does not indicate a "higher status" within the community for an essay, but is used to denote that the essay in question has wide acceptance to be linked from said policy or guideline page. See Template:Supplement for more information.
