[Wikiversity-l] [WikiEducator] Image: namespace

[Leigh Blackall]

I would love to see this happen James. A name space for Image: Audio: Video:
Template: etc... I really like the way the Image name space creates image
info pages.. and in the case of Wikieducator this is increasingly needed for
things like video and audio... It would be pretty cool to see a Video name
space for example, and along with all the data about the video on the video
page, is a time code in lots of 30 seconds, where people could transcribe
the audio into text for use in print media, subtitling, or low bandwidth
access..
