Templates need to be updated
editWikipedia cell and molecular biology articles contains some awesome big-picture showing templates comparing prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Such as Template:DNA replication (this template) , Template:Transcription and Template:Genetic translation.
However now we know, this prokaryote vs. eukaryote classification is quite an artificial classification, and 3 distinct group, eubacteria (bacteria in new sense), archaebacteria (archaea) and eukaryote works better.
So shouldn't we create 3 fields (total) (1 for bacteria, archaea and eukaryote, each)? Also, in some cases if we have lack of information about archea, we should keep empty place for archaea.
One of the template, Template:Genetic translation (Permalink) shows some rows for archaea; but they used "prokaryote" to mean eubacteria (bacteria of new meaning). But prokaryote does not mean eubacteria. Prokaryote includes both eubacteria (bacteria of new use) and archaea.
So I think it is time to update the templates.

- RIT RAJARSHI (talk · contribs), I agree throwing out the prok/euk split and going for the three way. What we need for the template is a sort of navbox with a table, similar to https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Template:Navbox_with_table. This way we can have effective comparison of things. --Artoria2e5 🌉 21:03, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
