I'm not sure if this has been discussed in the past, but I have been wondering about categories for images.
I have been wanting to categorize some of the images I've contributed (mostly home-made maps). It seemed highly desirablet o me to create separate categories, for images only, so that we don't have "mixed" categories of both articles and images, which would be quite ugly and not very useful at all.
There is no "Category:Maps" right now. I thought of making one, with subcategories such as "Category:Historical maps" etc. Then it occured to me that those categories might be best used for *articles* about well-known maps (such articles exist), like the [[Zeno map]] article for exaple.
So what do people think about this situation. I think images are worth categorization. Should there be a separate namespaces, or should this done within the current system of categorization (I would prefer the latter personally). A bit of policy would be helpful here.
