Change namespace for sections on main page

Currently there are templates being used to display what the about, current events, etc. displays on the main page. To make this more inline with how it's supposed to be used according to Wikipedia and MediaWiki, it should be under the wiki specific namespace, "Alathra_Wiki". For example "Alathra_Wiki:Did You Know" not "Template:DidYouKnow". :) ― Levi_OPtalk 17:56, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

Ah, good catch. I'll move those pages over. Zaktoslph (talk) 23:57, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

I see you redirected "Template:About" to "Alathra_Wiki:About", but only the about page. My original intent was that you changed all of the sections to "Althra_Wiki:..." pages and used {{Althra_Wiki:Did_You_Know}} instead of just using the redirect. The template namespace is a place for putting things that you want to be able to use on multiple pages, not just the front page, hence why I suggested that you switch to the wiki-specific namespace. Thanks, ― Levi_OPtalk 17:58, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
