Propose merging Template:Infobox peerage title with Template:Infobox family.
Much overlapping. Could well keep the extra overfloating variables as an appendix feature to be added within the infobox family template, perhaps as "noble/aristocratic" or otherwise, as have already been discussed priorly on its talk page. @SMcCandlish: who was extensively helpful in improving the infobox family template last time it was upgraded.

Strongly Oppose merging – I agree that some templates should be merged, but in this particular case, I do NOT support the merger of Template:Infobox peerage title with Template:Infobox family. The former template is for specific titles of nobility, whereas the latter template is for families in general, so they are very different concepts. I edit a number of articles that use Template:Infobox peerage title, and I find that template to be very useful. After looking at the two templates, I note that Template:Infobox peerage title has many parameters that do not appear in Template:Infobox family, and vice versa. Most of the Template:Infobox peerage title parameters display very specific wording that is highly relevant for articles about peerage titles, but this particular wording is usually not suitable at all for families in general. If the two templates were fully merged, I feel that some article editors could get confused when confronted with a large number of parameters to choose from, and they may pick parameters that are not meant for a peerage title infobox, or they might produce a very bloated infobox with a lot of excess parameters. As a result, a future editor of the template might decide to delete the "peerage title" parameters from Template:Infobox family at some point, because those fields don't generally apply to non-titled families. Because of these concerns, I feel that it would be much better to keep Template:Infobox peerage title and Template:Infobox family as separate templates, one for use with peerage titles and the other for families. That way, each template can serve its specific purpose, with the parameters that are the most appropriate ones. -- Blairall (talk) 19:26, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose A peerage is an honor granted by a monarch in the form of a royal patent (or equivalent). A family is a group or linage of people. This is like trying to merge the taxon infobox with the people infobox because "they are much the same". The two items are just too different and in the end very different fields are needed.

  • Oppose These two templates deal with two very different subjects. One is a title granted by a monarch, and another is a family. There's some connection between the two of course, but the two are different enough to warrant having different templates. --Inops (talk) 21:22, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Technical close. Nom had performed a cut and paste move to reverse an undiscussed move, then nominated the original navbox for deletion. This is about the title of the navbox, not whether it should be deleted or not. Have requested that the cut-and-paste move be reversed. --woodensuperman 14:04, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

we use common names of countries in country templates not long form. Foreign relations of Denmark already exists LibStar (talk) 19:44, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is an inappropriate nomination, as you've performed a WP:CUTANDPASTE move that needs to be reversed. I have tagged as such. --woodensuperman 13:48, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
