Template:Against Köppen (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This seems like a very odd template that violates WP:NPOV --- why must Wikipedia articles never be "against" the Köppen climate classification, and why do we need an article-space warning box for that? —hike395 (talk) 04:45, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was no consensus to delete, but there is some consensus to reformat the box. No prejudice against renomination at a future date if this is not possible Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 00:23, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Campaignbox Pakistan attacks 2001-2009 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Template is full of redlinks and is incredibly cumbersome to navigate. Creates formatting and text overlap errors in the articles it's placed into. Sottolacqua (talk) 00:37, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. My knowledge of templates is precisely nil, but if there's a way to fix those issues without deletion, I'd say keep. The redlinks could be trimmed, the formatting issues, I don't know. How about having it hide by default? HJ Mitchell | fancy a chat? 00:46, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have edited the template to reduce red links as suggested by HJ Mitchell. I only kept the links for articles with casualties greater than 40. I plan to create them when I get time. The template looks a lot cleaner now, and hopefully would not give the problems pointed out by Sottolacqua. I have also removed the deletion tag. Feel free to undo the edit if you see it fit. Thanks.

  • Keep campaignboxes are useful. Go see Vietnam War for a "worst" example --TheFEARgod (Ч) 10:35, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, no, the one for the Korean War (about half are red and black links) is really the "worst" more than the Vietnam War. Qajar (talk) 02:00, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
