Topic on Help talk:Subpages

<whine> Importing known templates from en:w: or m: to smaller MediaWiki projects is an obvious plan, but sadly many templates now use the (in essence unnecessary) /doc subpage style of documentation. But subpages in the template namespace are not enabled in MW, therefore imported templates relying on {{BASEPAGENAME}} or {{SUBPAGENAME}} can fail in hard to debug ways on other MW installations until an admin figures out how to enable this feature manually for the template namespace. This MW default should be changed. </whine>

I still refuse to use my new commons account on en:w: or m: or mediazilla:, the reasons to destroy an old 2006 account are still valid wrt en:w:, and all the moved to mw: pages here certainly contributed to that decision. 89.204.153.161 16:08, 15 August 2011 (UTC) Text copied as is from meta.

This isnt the best spot to request changing the default settings of a config variable. Bugzilla: would be better. I didnt find any bugs about this exact issues. Requests for comment may also be useful.

Somebody here decided to disable the feature, or didn't bother to enable it: It's not a bug, it's a feature.
