Discussion about revising the template
editI propose that we design templates for all the big five banks. The proposal downplays the director list and instead focuses on assisting readers navigate the different parts of the financial groups. A table mapping out the big five was added here.
The Wikipedia articles on these companies, and financial services in general in Canada, are currently of very poor quality. I think the first step is to start organizing the information. Each of the brands mentioned in the table linked to earlier in this paragraph are all worthy of a stand-alone article given their significance.
I know next to nothing about templates also, so feel free to touch it up even if you don't have any disagreement with the content. Deet 02:04, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- Support. The brands are much more useful to a reader than a bunch of people who just happen to sit on the board. --Usgnus 03:15, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
I have also now modified some of the statistic fields to make them slightly more relevant. Deet 23:54, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- I changed the capitalization because they're pretty much generic terms. I almost changed "Major brands by financial service" to just "Major brands". --Usgnus 23:56, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
