I noticed there are several places where MediaWiki shows a list of available namespaces, but they are sorted according to their internal number. E.g.:, at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Watchlist we have a select box with the following items (in this order): * all * (Article) * Talk * User * User talk * Wikipedia * Wikipedia talk * File * File talk * MediaWiki * MediaWiki talk * Template * Template talk * Help * Help talk * Category * Category talk * Portal * Portal talk * Book * Book talk * Education Program * Education Program talk * TimedText * TimedText talk * Module * Module talk it is much more intuitive to have it sorted alphabetically, i.e. * all * (Article) * Book * Book talk * Category * Category talk * Education Program * Education Program talk * File * File talk * Help * Help talk * MediaWiki * MediaWiki talk * Module * Module talk * Portal * Portal talk * Talk * Template * Template talk * TimedText * TimedText talk * User * User talk * Wikipedia * Wikipedia talk Here are some other places where there is a namespace list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:PrefixIndex https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AllPages https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:NewPages
Could you assign this bug to me?
Could someone mentor me with this bug fixing?
Aravind: If you have _specific_ questions please don't hesitate to ask them either here or on IRC.
Is it okay if I mail you?
I don't see much sense in relying on one person only in private, when there's an unlimited number of people who can help you in public. The knowledge of the crowd is one of the advantages of free software. :)
Where would I find the code to fix this bug?
