About this (inModule:Category handler/shared):
-- We don't use title.nsText for the namespace name because it adds-- underscores.
While tweaking this code (by the way, seeT369784), I just discovered another difference:
In frwiki, for the "User:" namespace, we have two different words: "Utilisateur:" for male (or unknown) users and "Utilisatrice:" for female users. Same goes for the "User talk:" namespace.
Now, assumingtitleObj represents a user page of a female user:
mw.site.namespaces[titleObj.namespace].name-- always gives: "Utilisateur" (gender is not applied)titleObj.nsText-- gives: "Utilisatrice" (gender is applied)
By the way, from a technical point of view, this namespace genderification is a pain in the ass. On a regular basis.
