I feel there's been a lot of interest lately over tweaking the dissonance between the current treatment of smashers, crews, and tournaments. There's a couple ways we can go about this. Let's have an official on-wiki discussion. | I feel there's been a lot of interest lately over tweaking the dissonance between the current treatment of smashers, crews, and tournaments.

# The reason that Smasher: was created in the first place, I imagine, was to distinguish in-game content from out-of-game content, and one namespace is sufficient for this. Furthermore, are we really sure that there aren't even more subjects relating competitive play, which will not fit under the very specific namespaces of smasher, tournament, and team? – [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]] 16:05, 8 November 2017 (EST) | # The reason that Smasher: was created in the first place, I imagine, was to distinguish in-game content from out-of-game content, and one namespace is sufficient for this.

===The decision=== | |||
It is pretty clear that option 2 is the winner. | |||
*There will be a <code>Tournament:</code> namespace. This is basically unanimous. | |||
*There will be a <code>Team:</code> namespace, with <code>Crew:</code> acting as a redirect (as Image: does to File:). I know this isn't the consensus, but I believe it is the better option, and having the redirect available means it doesn't really matter too much. | |||
Next steps: [[User:eXemplary Logic|XL]] (which if you don't know, is a bot that I run) will be handling the mass-move of all tournament and crew pages. However, this can't be done immediately; there needs to be a fair amount of preparation (such as generating the lists of "from pages" and "to pages"). Once the bot is ready to go, [[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] (the owner/developer) will be contacted to add the namespaces.
