User blog:Roads/Galleries

Sorry to bring up an old argument, but I also think galleries should be in their own namespace. They wouldn't show up on search results easily, but that would mean that the results wouldn't be cluttered with galleries. Also, it wouldn't be in the content namespace, meaning there'd me more room for page width since there's no right bar. Which means the page itself is shorter, but has the same amount of pictures in it.

It has its downsides, though, primarily because we'd have to move all of them over, and we'd have to request the new namespace to staff, and that there's no automatic return link. But who cares about automatic. What I like to see is a wiki that doesn't try to rely on all the automatic things.

One more thing: galleries should be emphasized more on the main pages. Here is an example from the Phineas and Ferb Wiki, which also uses its own gallery namespace, of what I think should happen. Note the link, and that the picture also links to the gallery.
