Discussion
These settings have been used on many thousands of content (namespace 0) pages in December 2009. I have also just done the category and template space. The portal space is simpler and while parts of it are rarely visited, needs bringing to the standard of the rest of project space. Rich Farmbrough, 16:00, 13 March 2010 (UTC).
