The result of the discussion was unfork, I will move the current version of this template to the sandbox of Template:Composition bar for comparison, but it seems the problem may have already been addressed with this change to infobox political party. In any case, the discussion of how to address any remaining spacing problems can happen at Template talk:Composition bar. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 04:56, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox political party/seats (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

fork of {{composition bar}} with the only substantive being the height/alignment. this history is basically (1) the template was created as {{Infobox political party/seats}} (2) it was moved to {{composition bar}} (3) hundreds of transclusions were changed from {{Infobox political party/seats}} to {{composition bar}} and (3) it was forked as {{Infobox political party/seats}}. it may seem like a good idea to fix the problems by simply forking it, but the problems should be addressed by fixing {{composition bar}} instead of forking it. Frietjes (talk) 18:25, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Frietjes, are you sure fixing the supposed problems with {{composition bar}} that led to the forking wouldn't create new problems at those hundreds of other pages? Or do you suggest adding optional parameters for height and alignment? In the latter case it may be wise to add them before deleting the fork. What we probably don't want is an edit war about those parameters in {{composition bar}}. Huon (talk) 19:48, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Huon, sure we can start with an option, say 'infobox=yes' or something that will fix the alignment in infoboxes, then work on a more universal solution. however, the current situation fixes nothing since hundreds were already changed to not use the redirect. Frietjes (talk) 14:52, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
merge the alignment and height changes back in to composition bar. I oppose straight up deletion without making sure composition bar can handle it first. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 19:39, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Lymphatic system anatomy (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Lymphatics of lower limbs with Template:Lymphatic system anatomy.
I propose that this template be 'merged' or for a better term collapsed into the parent template, {{Lymphatic system anatomy}}. The benefits of merging are clear: all lymphatic structures are visible in a single template, instead of the tiny and confusing piecemeal templates. These small templates make the topic difficult to navigate, and by virtue of the slow speed of evolution and the relatively stable state of human anatomy and the science thereof, are unlikely to be significantly expanded. In addition to making the topic easier for readers to navigate, merging the templates is easier for maintenance, which includes making copyedits and keeping the set standard.

I have created this template as a result of a discussion with DePiep and PizzaMan. Tom (LT) (talk) 07:02, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have notified the relevant WikiProject (WP:ANAT) here: [1] --Tom (LT) (talk) 07:15, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments re process: 1. I understand {{Lymphatic system anatomy}} is the target template (so I read: ~~with~~ into ...). 2. The five proposals here can be seen as one (a section restructuring could be done). -DePiep (talk) 07:26, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge The templates will be far more useful when merged into one larger template.-- CFCF 🍌 (email) 09:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support all merges. Not because I discussed this, but because the profound discussions at Template talk:Medicine navs show that nom and PizzaMan oversee the topic (of medicine navigation). -DePiep (talk) 10:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Having all the lymphatic system templates in one place would give a more complete view of the subject. --Tilifa Ocaufa (talk) 14:15, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Template:I-22 aux (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Navboxes such as this with only three links (I-22, I-222 and I-422) have traditionally been deleted. The usual rule of thumb has been to require about 5 or more separate links to put them into use in articles. Imzadi 1979 → 05:47, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
