Forum:Talk page and article comments

How exactly are they seen by the new namespace filter in the recent changes? In the wikis I edit the most, one has article comments enabled and one hasn't. Article comments generally replace the talk page, but I want to be able to filter out the article comments in one wiki, without also filtering out talk page edits in the other wiki, which is what I believe would happen, since those options are stored globally instead of a per-wiki basis. Is this possible? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:59, September 10, 2012 (UTC)


 * Article comments (but not including blog comments) use namespace 1 by design, the same namespace used by Talk: pages. If you set up your Special:RecentChanges to filter out Talk: namespace edits, you will also be filtering out article comments.


 * Is there any way at all so I can filter out article comments in one wiki, but retain talk pages of mainspace articles in another wiki? All that I see in the article comments in one wiki is pointless chit-chat, but if I filter those out, then I'd miss talk page edits in the other wiki, which contain actual discussion about how to improve articles in question. Maybe a custom script or something like that? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:34, September 10, 2012 (UTC)
