:::Well, I know why there are subpages, but I can't figure a good reason for them to be in the Template namespace when they should be subpages (as much as they can be) of the : article or of a Bulbapedia: article. --[[User:Raijinili|Raijinili]] 05:37, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

::::Template's just easier to call. Bulbapedia: adds an extra 11 characters. If you're transcluding it as a template, it should usually be in the template namespace. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#FF0000">''TTE''</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 06:34, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

:::::Well, maybe, but I expect that the "Bulbapedia" would be static anyhow. And mainspace would be just one extra character.
:::::And transclusion wasn't built for templates, it's just naturally the most common minor use for it. "Template" sort of implies that you're going to use the ''code'' over and over, as opposed to using the pages to break ''content'' up into manageable pieces.
:::::It's not that I feel strongly about the namespace difference, as most people won't even get affected indirectly by it, but I'm not satisfied by the logic behind it. --[[User:Raijinili|Raijinili]] 13:45, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
