	*{{comment}} I don't really see another namespace as a problem. What you call "the confusion of page moves" is only experienced by a handful of admins. The old Talk page stays as a redirect, so people will have no problem to find it. The benefit of having a separate namespace is that it doesn't 'pollute' the Main and Talk: namespaces (except for the redirects), and it makes it possible to search in deleted discussions only, and the possibility to temporarily restore an article without having to put it in the Main namespace (i.e. it stays hidden from most searches, as it should be). --[[User:Catrope\|Catrope]]<sup>([[User talk:Catrope\|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope\|e-mail me]])</sup> 12:07, 9 March 2007 (CST)		*{{comment}} I don't really see another namespace as a problem.

	**{{comment}} How many users search outside of the main namespace? And how many would know, intuitively, to check in the "delete" namespace for a delete discussion if they encounter a page that doesn't exist? A lot of the wiki-stuff is bewildering enough to average users already, but adding more layers of complexity might confuse even "old hands". I'll grant that the average user wouldn't even be aware of the complexity, but what I'm talking about is the person who's (apparently) trying to get a deleted page restored. --[[User:Steelviper\|Steelviper]] 12:19, 9 March 2007 (CST)		**{{comment}} How many users search outside of the main namespace?
