Feature request: Add Ability to Save Pages from All Wikipedia Namespaces
Open, LowPublicFeature

Description

Feature summary (what you would like to be able to do and where):
I need the ability to Save from all of the namespaces which I have access to

Use case(s) (list the steps that you performed to discover that problem, and describe the actual underlying problem which you want to solve. Do not describe only a solution):
Using the latest version of the app, 7.5.2 (3622), on my iPhone 12 Pro (iOS ver 17.5.1), I am not able to Save pages/articles from anywhere except the Main namespace.

Since I edit pages/articles, I refer to Wikipedia other namespaces a lot, especially when I have trouble remembering rules, policies and syntax usage. It would be nice if I did not need to Search for those pages everytime I need them. On those pages, I do not even have the option to Save.

I need the ability to Save from all of the namespaces which I have access to. Before I started using the app, I saved them as browser bookmarks for every namespace.

Is there a method or process I can follow to Save these pages?

Benefits (why should this be implemented?):
Editors and contributors would save time by quickly accessing frequently used reference pages, policies, and guidelines without needing to search for them each time.

Note: Also not possible on Android

This is a great suggestion, however we are limited on displaying pages outside of the mainspace in the same way as Articles due to page content services.
