I set up a slightly different format for the Water Gallery - I broke it into templates and then linked the templates, so that we can just update the single template and then it would update both the Water Gallery and the Main Gallery (trying to keep the difference between the galleries to a minimum). This would also allow us to embed specific gallery pages in other pages, with the data again being congruent across all the pages. The water gallery looks identical, but it's slightly more difficult to edit, as you have to edit the individual templates instead of just editing the gallery page itself. I linked a "bookmark" for the new gallery templates I created for easy access to the templates for those who are prone to editing.

I ran into only one issue that I can find, but it might be a dealbreaker. When editing one of the new water gallery templates, it won't give me the new wiki "visual mode" edit, only the source code editor. This doesn't bother me, as I can read/write wikitext, but it most definitely would negatively impact anybody who needs the WYSIWYG editor.
