List of Pages where hover cards should be turned of

-Article History

Hovering on "User Guide", "Development" etc produces misplaced hovercards.

Lets try to get the list of pages together in the thursday meeting so Prateek can submit the patch for this.
Comment 3 Vibha Bamba 2014-04-11 00:42:56 UTC
Dan, Assigning this to you so you can drive the final list.
Comment 4 Dan Garry 2014-04-24 23:34:55 UTC
Renaming to reflect the consensus of the team.
Comment 5 Prateek Saxena 2014-04-30 15:02:27 UTC
We still need the list of where all it "doesn't" need to show up because that is how I'll have to write the code. It'll have to be subtractive. Sorry, I didn't realize this during the call.
Comment 6 Quiddity 2014-04-30 23:39:34 UTC
Dan:
Do you/we want it to only function /in/ the main namespace? 
Or, to only function for /links to/ the main namespace?
I assume both are possible.

Prateek:
Re: lists, possibly you're looking for [[Wikipedia:Namespace]] and [[wikt:Wiktionary:Namespace]] and [[m:Help:Namespace]] ?

I think a tightly narrowed focus would give us the best success for the first release, so I think having it only function in the mainspace would be best.

@Prateek: Note that Dan and I discussed this in today's meeting, and he's going to be giving the matter more thought. So don't change anything yet. ;)

(Ie. It /might/ be worth continuing to allow Hovercards to function for links /to/ mainspace articles, from other namespaces. Eg. a link to [Foobar] in the [WP:Village pump (technical)].
Comment 9 Zell Faze 2014-06-04 12:53:21 UTC
I'm in agreement with Quiddity.  I think it would be preferable for Hovercards to function for links /to/ the main namespace, even when on pages in other namespaces.
Comment 10 Prateek Saxena 2014-06-05 02:30:49 UTC
I guess keeping the links would only make sense once bug 65117 is resolved.
Comment 11 Helder 2014-06-20 02:54:19 UTC
What about the other content namespaces in $wgContentNamespaces?

Errr.  That'll teach me for not adding my hesitation within a comment! IANAD. I was just trying to amend the (old old) summary, to be clearer.  Please fix it, in a way that makes the most sense. (Perhaps: "Only have Hovercards turned on for links to $wgContentNamespaces" ?) Thanks.
