Essentially: Do pages like [[Lists of basic topics]] belong in mainspace, or projectspace? Having failed to get much feedback via a Village Pump post or an RfC/policy, I bring the request here. See (and reply at) the thread for the full version.
And Please, please watchlist (and look over) the very slow changing, but incredibly prominent links in [[Template:Contents pages (header bar)]] (except List of portals, which updates a lot). We need more participants there, we hardly have any.
I've never used any of these pages, let alone edited them. Most of them I didn't know existed e.g. "basic topics" (how do we decide what is a basic topic anyway...) so really I could care less about the specifics. Judging by the appearance/layout of the ones I examined just now, I'd say they look more portal-ish than article-ish (but I do also realize same reasoning would apply to the [[Main Page]], which is unlikely to budge any time soon).
