Unused template; only linked from itself. MikeVitale 22:17, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Template was created at a time of seeing several unref/unjustified birth date changes. It seems less critical now, as it is probably more effective to rely on such actions as page protection, user warnings/blocks, reverts. BLP editnotice option also seems a good approach; but what would be the corresponding editnotice for a "BDP"? Dl2000 (talk) 22:56, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Broken template that is unrelated to Template:Colort and used only in place of Template:Color swatch. For some reason I cannot get this one to display correctly in dark mode. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 21:48, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Only two links to articles. Minus the fact the main article linked as a redirect. Rest are for categories. No navigation is met with this template. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:40, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Only four links. Still falls shorts after removing links to categories. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:59, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@WikiCleanerMan: links to categories are commonly included in similar templates in Category:Film country navigational boxes. WP:NAVBOX is a section in a page comparing the use of categories, lists and templates to navigate between articles; it does not prohibit links to categories in navboxes. – Fayenatic London 21:00, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template for a non-existing subject (Progressive groups in the US). And an overly broad scope. The Banner talk 14:45, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Are you referring to {{Progressivism sidebar}} here? Tule-hog (talk) 19:09, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
actually it is Template:New Democrats Sm8900 (talk) 20:08, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Should the template instead be named {{New Democrats navbox}}? Otherwise the current name implies a focus on the blanket topic Progressivism in the United States. Tule-hog (talk) 21:10, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
ok, sure i can rename it to {{New Democrats topics}}.is that ok with everyone? by the way, the word "topics" is a consistent term to use in a navbox title; the word "navbox" would generally not be in the title. Sm8900 (talk) 03:42, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As long as it refers to an existing article, it is fine to me. The Banner talk 12:55, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
the article link is on the first line. but i can add it in the title as well.
