::You didn't answer the question, Why do you object to subpages? I'm still not defending them so much as I am asking for a good reason to go through the trouble of changing their arborescence ;). I really don't support subpages for any articles (if I did at one time, then I repent for it now), but to me, the Images pages are not articles. | |||
::On the subject of inclusiveness, I brought that up some time ago on the Talk page for Images. At that time, my goal was really to help paradox, and so when he told me that he wanted to include all fan art unless it was both poorly-drawn and a "remake", that's what I did (at least, that's how I understood his post). Truthfully, if left to my own devices, a number of those fan drawings would not be there. But I felt that it wasn't right for me to exercise some kind of authority in telling some fans, "Sorry, your work isn't good enough". I mean, you and I agree on the notion of bad fan art not being desirable, but if we actually sat down together and looked at the same group of images, we might disagree on which ones are not worth putting in the gallery and which were. FWIW, those are all the images I was given, so you won't be seeing any more art flowing in. As far as the naming goes, I just can't see it being worth the effort to studiously rename every image according to what it depicts (seriously, try it, it's not easy). I went with the names that were there already, adding a detail here and there. I don't think we will have a problem with it in the future; the only danger is that someone will want to upload something and not know it's already there, but you know what? I checked the existing Gallery to make sure that each and every image I uploaded wasn't already there. That's just a proper wiki procedure. The names of the existing images were irrelevant because I looked at the thumbnails. | |||
