Start
editI just started a template for topics related to the end of human civilization, humanity, the Earth, and the universe. It's still very much a rough draft right now, and isn't ready for any articles, but eventually it should be wroth something. Named Template:Doomsday for now. --Wasted Sapience 21:34, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'm going to go ahead and add this to a couple of articles in order to get the word out. --Wasted Sapience 21:58, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
End of the world
editEnd of the world and Doomsday cover a lot of the same thing, but different terms. I might have called this template "End of the world" and linked to it as the top-level article.. but then I can see why Doomsday was chosen also. How we do we deal with Doomsday vs EOTW and are there any others like that? -- Stbalbach 00:25, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Astronomical links
editIf no-one minds, I will delete the astronomical links in the template. Doomsday, according to the article, is a possible ending to all human life, in an scientific or metaphysical way. The ultimate end of the universe doesn't seem part of it, in my humble opinion. --Soetermans (talk) 13:00, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

- Template:Doomsday → Template:Global catastrophic risks --Relisted. Armbrust The Homunculus 12:12, 1 May 2014 (UTC) --172.251.77.75 (talk) 17:43, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
- I've fixed the request, assuming you want it to remain a template. --BDD (talk) 18:14, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
- Default oppose. No rationale offered for move, template has a stable name. Template name doesn't always have to match the "header." SnowFire (talk) 20:40, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose Template names are often a memorable shorthand to use in {{inserttemplatename}} for editors, not meant to correspond exactly to the title displayed, which may may be formatted in a different way because of layout or other reasons. walk victor falk talk 18:08, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
