Yeah, I saw that and assumed it was "User talk" that it linked to. However, it looks like Wikia may have changed it because of message walls. Message Walls is definitely not a talk namespace per MediaWiki convention. As I said in my edited portion, I did a quick test with TALKPAGENAME and it gave me "Message Wall" for "User". So regardless of which one it is supposed to be, something is definitely off as TALKPAGENAME is supposed to be the inverse of SUBJECTPAGENAME. I guess the difficult thing for Wikia is that not all wikis have message walls. For those wikis, "User talk" would definitely be the correct talk namespace.

Just to be clear, the redirect from "User talk" to "Message Wall" is implemented in some JS that Wikia has. The two are still separate namespaces as far as MediaWiki is concerned. You can tell by looking at the list of namespaces and namespace aliases.
