Hi devs,
It looks like a bug to me, but wiki macro defined for global level in a
subwiki, are effectively influencing the whole farm.
If the wiki macro is saved by a global user that has PR.

multiple
wiki, maybe in different version, all those macros will be in
conflict, it will not be easy to know which one wins, and even more
difficult to detect the problem in the first place.
This can happen also if two different extensions define a macro with the
same name (in two different documents), but I guess this is less

What do you mean by "user of subwiki"? It can be a global user.
I agree that subwikis should act as namespaces,
and normally you expect
something defined in an inner namespace to not be visible in the outer
namespace. So +1

To be consistent we should apply the same logic to other related use
cases like translations.
Thanks,
Marius
