In the context of MediaWiki and Semantic MediaWiki, namespace management is realized through the use of key phrases and inter-linked properties, indexed in the relational database of MediaWiki.

Namespace management is the foundation of mathematics, as Henri Poincaré once said:

Mathematics is the art of labeling different things with the same name.

This observation is directly applicable in the field of systems engineering, software engineering, and most importantly, reveals the foundational mechanism of how to organize names, using number theory. The use of number theory to analyze namespace can be dated back to Euclid's work on reasoning about the infinite supply of prime numbers, and Kurt Godel's work on the Incompleteness Theorem.

Naming a page

A Namespace management system could be formalized as a set of rules mapping on values:

$Naming:value\to name$
