Another good example would be [[Gerrit]] and it's subpages

The problem is PWB can't fit in any of the any of the namespace completely, for example about the manual: "mainly for people setting up their own wiki": No one needs to start their own wiki to make a bot running and it's not too technical to be there.
in other hands main namespace never was completely about general information about mediawiki software. you can find pages like [[Flow]], [[Echo]], etc. that they are completely separated from mediawiki core and they have lots of subpages in the main namespace too

Hello all, Based on several discussions here and there I want to move [[Manual:Pywikibot]] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/PWB (and all of
the
subpages which are about 200 pages) to [[Pywikibot]] like other products
Another reason that motivates me to move is the page (and subpages)
aren't
just about running a bot. they are about everything, including reports, discussions, description about scripts and anything about pywikibot in general.
If you disagree or you have any ideas please feel free to share and if there will be no objection until Tuesday, I'll move them.
Best
Really? If that is the intention, then we should be looking to reword components of mediawiki.org, as that seems to be a bit of disconnect ...
[[Project:Namespaces]] says
Main: All general information ''about'' the software. Manual: All technical or more detailed stuff behind the surface, that is not part of the basic help pages (full handbook, mainly for people setting up their own wiki). Extension: All extensions and directly related stuff. ... Extensions and tools, that are not part of the default MediaWiki distribution.
If it is not integral to the operations of Mediawiki, doesn't it belong in with the tools?
