Proposal on new namespace

I will suggest structuring the namespaces into 3 parts: Mainspace, concept, and guides.

This is to make for the wiki to be more objective, which is important as wiki can be edited by everyone and if subjective, disputes may happen. Below are how the namespaces work:

The alternative and the recommended namespace are actually the same, so it can be merged into the mainspace, which is for analysis of the good and bad softwares from a privacy standpoint and will require citations for the claims, see my work like ProtonMail, documenting the good and bad qualities of the softwares from a privacy standpoint. As guides are expressing the steps towards privacy, it is the best namespace to give minor advises and suggestions, which I think the weight of advises should not amount to much, as it is quite subjective. An example will be Adblocking, which includes advises like “donate instead” and suggestions of softwares, but at the same time it tells how to block ads. This will be a great match to the Guide namespace. Finally, the concept namespace remain the same function.

I believe this categorization would be more clear. Matttest (talk) 09:01, 13 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
