Forum:How do you set up a non-content namespace?

I was told by wikia staff that do achieve what i am trying to do on a wiki, I should move the main page to a non-content namespace, like Portal:Main with Portal being set up on the wiki as a non-content namespace. How do I set Portal as a non-content namespace?--Soul reaper 05:43, October 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * You request custom namespaces through Special:Contact. However, to keep the article structure clean and transparent the main page should be in the main namespace. Also, if you decide to move the main page, don't forget about modifying MediaWiki:Mainpage. — Sovq 06:30, October 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Moving the Main Page automatically changes MediaWiki:Mainpage. At least it always does on Ben 10 Fan Fiction.

 * The message from wikia said "move the page to a non-content namespace, like Portal:Main with Portal being set up on your wiki as a non-content namespace." When I asked for further information for doing so i never got a response.--Soul reaper 09:13, October 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Out of curiosity, why do you want to move the mainpage in a different namespace? What do you gains with it?
