I find it very disappointing that folks here don't find human driven
presentation of content to be valuable. Will we now be deleting the
commons main page and simply redirecting it to a category?
This will force projects to build their own true gallery pages rather
than build them on commons. Because of the difficulty of building
truly multilingual things on commons the incentive to avoid working on
commons already exists... this will just increase it further. :(

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.
