Hello Everyone,

In the attempt to create a wiki-site for the park in Québec, I stumbled upon some inconsistencies in Page-Names and Organisation, that I would like to clean up, if nobody has a problem with it.

1. The Name Convention 'country':'province' eg. Canada:Québec is sometimes used, sometimes not. I would pledge for not using it, because it is...
 a) a bit bulky
 b) rarely used in other countries
c) unnecessary and incomplete structuring in the wrong place. The information, which city belongs in which province belongs in which country, should be (IMHO) in the content of the article, not in the article name.


2. The language name spaces are often not properly used, which makes it unnecessarily difficult to keep two language versions of articles.

To compare:

French version now is in the main name space (which is English)
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Qu%C3%A9bec

My suggestion would look as follows:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/FR:Qu%C3%A9bec


Looking forward to hear your opinion on this!

Niklas (Holzloifer)
