In addition to the articles and their Talk pages, there are some other categories of behind-the-scenes pages that help Wiki Frakrs communicate with each other, and serve a variety of other roles in building Wiki Frakr. These different areas are often referred to as namespaces — as in, "the Talk namespace".
Current List of Namespaces
This is the current list of active namespaces thoughout all the lanagues. The "Media Wiki" as a custom set of namespaces, but there is only one version like it. Each namespace has it's own talk namespace also.

User pages and User Talk pages
If you want to share information about yourself, the place to put it is your User page. If other users want to communicate with you, they will leave a message on your User talk page.
Some other areas
Pages in the Wiki Frakr namespace (also known as the "Project namespace") provide information about Wiki Frakr and how to use it. The MediaWiki namespace contains interface texts such as link labels (What links here, etc.) and server messages. All the pages in both these areas also have corresponding MediaWiki talk pages.
Content written in a Template page will be displayed in articles that contain the corresponding template reference. Take a look at WF:TEM project to see what templates have already been created. You can use the corresponding tags in articles. You can also create new templates.
