Name Spaces
A namespace is a set of pages whose names begin with a particular reserved word recognized by the MediaWiki software (followed by a colon). For example, in the user namespace all titles begin with the prefix User:. In the case of the article (or main) namespace, in which Fallout articles appear, the reserved word and colon are absent.

Unique to our wiki

 * Resource - Contains pages of guides, tools, and tutorials written by editors, modders, and community members.

 * Example: Mod:Authors and Developers
 * Community - Contains fan fiction, artwork, tool developers, projects, affiliates, and community groups.

General

 * Main (no prefix) - Contains all Fallout articles, lists, disambiguation pages, and redirects. Sometimes referred to as "mainspace" or "article space."
 * Example: Pre-War Setting
 * User - Contains user pages and other pages created by individual users for their own personal use. Pages under this namespace can still be viewed by others but should not be edited by anyone other than you.
 * Example: User:Rubbinmahbelly
 * File/Video - Contains description pages for media files (images, videos, and audio files). Media: namespace can be used to link directly to a file, rather than to the file description page.
 * Example: File:FO3 Abomination texture.png
 * Template - Contains templates which are pages that are intended primarily to be transcluded or substituted onto other pages to insert standard text or boxes such as infoboxes and navigation boxes.
 * Example: Template:Jojobox
 * Category - Contains category pages, which are lists of related pages and subcategories, along with optional additional text.
 * Example: Category:Hot Rodder
