[Search wiki] Mini Articles and Use of the Main Namespace

[Rainer Blome]

Why don't we keep this discussion on http://search.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Main_Namespace ?  Regarding the distinction between "mini" and "maxi" content, I sort of replied there.

My guess is that there will be relatively few content written along these
lines, compared to "leaf content".  There will be many mini articles with
some content, but for which no one ever writes a disambiguation or "how
to".  To me it looks like a waste to reserve the main namespace for the
relatively few "orientation" articles, even though they will probably be
of higher average quality.

Regarding [[search:Main namespace]], I would prefer if its text made clear that this it is a suggestion that was made, not a "provisional policy".
