-- NAMESPACE DETECT --
-- --
-- This module implements the {{namespace detect}} template --
-- in Lua, with a few improvements: all namespaces and all --
-- namespace aliases are supported, and namespace names are --
-- detected automatically for the local wiki. Function names --
-- can be configured for different wikis by altering the --
-- values in the "cfg" table. --
-- --
----------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Configuration data --
-- Language-specific parameter names can be set here. --
----------------------------------------------------------------------

local cfg = {}

-- The name for the parameter to display content for the main namespace:
cfg.main = 'main'

-- The name for the parameter to display content in talk namespaces:
cfg.talk = 'talk'

-- The name for the parameter to display content for "other" namespaces
-- (namespaces for which parameters have not been specified, or for when
-- cfg.demospace is set to cfg.other):
cfg.other = 'other'

-- The name for the parameter to set a demonstration namespace:
cfg.demospace = 'demospace'

-- The name for the parameter to set a specific page to compare:
cfg.page = 'page'

-- The header for the namespace column in the wikitable containing the
-- list of possible subject-space parameters.
cfg.wikitableNamespaceHeader = 'Namespace'

-- The header for the wikitable containing the list of possible
-- subject-space parameters.
