Re: [Commons-l] Radical proposal

Crossposted to http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#Radical_proposal Since sorting images seems to be a categorical affair, and that articles here do not require much in the way of articles or descriptions, is it possible to make article pages function as if they were a category? It would save some typing, and reduce use of static linkage (ie. articles) in favor of dynamic likage (ie. categories). "Articles" in turn would require fitting into a namespace, though I agree that would seem to defy convention. Again, this idea is based on the notion that everything could fit into category pages, or commons: pages, and little else. A migration/integration campaign would be required.
