Template:Subtitle/Taxon (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This template seems to achieve something undesirable, and is, I believe, contrary to the template namespace guideline. It creates a "subtitle", apparently for use in taxonomic articles. There is no history of using such subtitles on en.wiki, and I not aware of any discussion mandating their introduction. The guideline states that "[t]emplates should not do the work of article content in the main article namespace", and I believe this template contravenes that. Any alternative names, scientific or vernacular, can and should be included in the lead, and not in a subtitle. Stemonitis (talk) 19:22, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep large number of transclusions indicate this has some utility and should be kept. LT910001 (talk) 21:25, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I wouldn't call 44 a "large number"; also note that they were all added fairly recently, and by a very small number of editors (possibly only one). --Stemonitis (talk) 07:54, 16 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete it gives the article a strange look. @user:LT910001, please take a look at one of the article which use it, e.g. Cypraea_tigris; the first line "Cypraea tigris • Tiger cowry" and the <hr> (long line) is from the template – it does nothing else. Christian75 (talk) 22:13, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
delete, unless someone modifies MediaWiki:Common.js to make this work. the idea is to achieve what you see in fr:Cypraea tigris, but to make that work you need something in the javascript to merge the headings (see the 'sousTitreH1' in fr:MediaWiki:Common.js). without that extra code, this will never work properly. Frietjes (talk) 18:38, 17 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete I have no idea why we use this. It's redundant, has a confusing horizontal line, is a very major change to the appearance of articles, has a different, odd font, and breaks the convention of the format of the rest of the article. All 91 transclutions should be removed and the template deleted. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:06, 26 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete I agree with Anna on this. I really don't like the way this looks; it is very disruptive to the design of the page, plus it is redundant because the idea has always been that we list alternate scientific names and common names within the first sentence.

Template:EDL (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Only lists six articles; made redundant by Category:English Defence League — Richard BB 10:06, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say it is helpful for navigation. I'm not the best at templates, but is there a relevant set of policies that apply to templates like this? Hobit (talk) 10:23, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
keep, unless there is another reason for deleting it; connecting 7 articles is a perfectly good use of a navbox. we should rename it though to Template:English Defence League. Frietjes (talk) 18:40, 17 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
