Hey, hoping for a little help.

So I'm confused about what I'm supposed to enter as the name of an article when I create a new one (for instance, to update an old page).  Recently, I made a memory (computing) page because "computation" had a red link and I always thought there ought to be something on the wiki there.  Should I have made it "DF2012:Memory (computing)"?

What happens if I follow a red link and create a page?  Will it put it in the DF2012 namespace automatically, or is there something I need to do?

Just not sure how it all works, trying to do things right and reduce clean-up work.

Links within any of the "DF version" namespaces (DF2012, v0.31, 40d, or 23a) will automatically point at the same namespace.

Thanks.

If I happen to make a brand new page, say by search and then "create this page", will it end up in the 2012 namespace?

[Quietust]

Brand new pages will end up in the global namespace, which is probably not where they belong (unless they apply to all past and and future versions, which isn't likely).

Cool, thanks.  I think I got the hang of it.
