::Indeed... I had realized a while back after I voted for the Smasher namespace that this wiki is essentially a sports wiki since the Smash games are like a sport with its own various communities and teams, and that wikis on sports have, of course, articles on players galore (none of them being in their own namespace as far as I can tell). And just now it occurred to me that even if the Smashers and Crews were somehow put in the same namespace, the article title count would still be dubious (with tournaments, international events, websites, and flash games counting towards the broadcasted total, along with the fact that there'll eventually be over a thousand articles on video game characters/items/locations/old Nintendo games because of all the trophies and stickers, making it only a small portion of the total article count that would actually the number of pages about gameplay anyway). I'd say it's because of all that that lowering the article count isn't really a standalone reason for any custom namespace to be implemented (goes for pretty much any wiki).
