>From afar, the Opera: pages on it.ws are very close to the pages with the
template {{Éditions}} on fr.ws or the template {{Versions}} on en.ws (and
similar system elsewhere).
The main difference is having a separate namespace A second major
difference is that the templates on fr.ws and en.ws are very light while
the {{Opera}} template took data from Wikidata (but that's an independent
problem, it's possible to change the {{Éditions}} or {{Versions}} templates
to do exactly the same thing without having a specific namespace).
I'm almost convinced too, but in order to create a new namespace on a
project you have to convinced the local community. That's why I'm still
playing the Devil's advocate role and want to learn about the inconvenients
of this system (for instance, since the name of the work is free to use,
does people often use it by mistake?).
