Pages on LIMSwiki are organized into namespaces. Namespaces are a mechanism for grouping/separating wiki pages, differentiating between the purpose of the pages at a high level. Pages in certain namespaces can have special properties or behave differently when they interact with other pages. Namespaces are indicated in page titles by prefixing the page name with "namespace:", so the prefix "Help:" in this page's title ("Help:Namespaces") indicates that this page is in the Help namespace. A page whose name is not prefixed by a namespace lies in the mainspace.
Please note that namespace prefixes always end with a colon.

In addition, LIMSwiki includes a few other semi-reserved namespaces:

- LabCourses.com: eventually this namespace will be designated for handling documentation for public domain online course site LabCourses.com
Adding a page to LIMSwiki
Please consult the help documentation for more about adding pages to the wiki and specific namespaces.
