*'''Comment''' {{ping|Pigsonthewing}} I echo the IP's sentiments – please only visibly tag the template that you're actually trying to get rid of. You've tagged several highly used templates for merger recently, which has caused quite a lot of annoyance. Infobox settlement has well over 400,000 transclusions, and it's really not necessary to disrupt hundreds of thousands of articles for this.

*** It's also "standard procedure" to use {{para|type|infobox}} on infoboxes. I've pointed this out to you [[Special:Diff/637341471|before]]. [[Special:Contributions/213.7.227.83|213.7.227.83]] ([[User talk:213.7.227.83|talk]]) 13:31, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

Template:Infobox U.S. county (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Infobox settlement (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Infobox U.S. county with Template:Infobox settlement.
I started making the US county template a wrapper for the standard settement infobox, in the former's sandbox, but there are just a few parameters missing. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:00, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

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

544 uses. Redundant with and replaceable by {{div col}} (63939 uses). Will need some cleanup as this template closes with a raw </div>.  Gadget850 talk 10:41, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
