Transclusion

edit

IZAK just transcluded this template into a whole bunch of pages where I don't think it belongs. (See Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Torah portion.) I've commented on each of those pages' talk pages.—msh210 20:56, 2 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Indeed. The length and ever-changing nature of the template makes it completely inappropriate for the article namespace. -Joshuapaquin 21:31, 2 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi everyone:

User:msh210 has disagreed with me (see User talk:IZAK#Maftir) about placing {{Torah portion}} on each of the following articles. He has placed the following basic objection on each page: "What is {{Torah portion}} doing on this page? Completelt irrelevant.—msh210 19:06, 2 July 2006 (UTC)."Reply

In response I am centralizing the discussions here. I am also providing the full text of my first response on each article's talk page here, listed as point "Reason/s (1)" for each article, the other three reasons were the same on/for all the articles: That: (2) The template {{Torah portion}} is at the bottom of the Maftir article's page, so essentially it's part of the "See also" section which is a legitimate way of connecting related and connected topics on an article. (3) If a reader finds the {{Torah portion}} to be "too intrusive" then any reader is free to click "Hide" on the top right section of the template's heading which shrinks it to an unobtrusive one liner. Finally, (4) the {{Torah portion}} is presently diligently updated weekly by User:Dauster early each Sunday so that any readers may learn more about the weekly Parsha. User:Dauster summarizes each week's Parsha and adds some interesting graphics which surely adds life and color to a page that may gain the attention of readers who don't know much about this subject and may want to learn more. Please refer all further comments and discussions to one centralized location at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Judaism#Template: Torah portion Thank you. IZAK 08:25, 4 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
