  There's no reason why we shouldn't have a gallery at both [[Munich, Germany]]
and [[München, Deutschland]].  If people aren't interested in maintaining both,
then I suppose we could get really worked up about which one is the redirect and
which one is the actual gallery, but it is a pretty trivial thing to argue over.
 Categories are different, and should use English, with the goal of eventually
translating based on user preferences.
