What do all the semicolon's mean? 
Each page in this Kiwi is identified by two parts. The two parts are the name, and the namespace. A namespace is like a region or territory. It prevents overlapping of names. Think of cities in a country. There are many different Springfield's in the United States, but they are uniquely identified because they are in different states. Therefore, the namespace is like a region of the Kiwi and the articles that are specific to that namespace will not conflict with others. This allows multiple articles, for instance, to be named 'Homework 1'. Their full names might be 'ECE662:Homework 1' and 'ECE301:Homework 1'
