same question as below. MWQs (talk) 03:52, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I can see, most brigade-sized units do not have a country-flag every time the name of the unit is used. In my opinion, it is purely decorative but without using the normal flag icons or file links it is way more difficult to spot them. The Banner talk 11:01, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean by "disguised"? I didn't intend this as anything hidden or deceptive. It's a military unit that's mentioned in a lot of infoboxes, this was intended as a streamlined substitute for using {{flagicon image}} with an image file name and a separate [[Golani Brigade]] link.

Template:Deomyinae

edit

This template is unnecessary as we can always navigate the taxonomy via the taxonomic infoboxes. And now we have to maintain the taxonomy in 3 different places: the infoboxes, the genus articles (which list the species), and navigation templates like this. Why do we need such redundant systems that just create more work? Nosferattus (talk) 04:07, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This is a standard navbox that is used in many articles. Clearly useful. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:44, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete is my preference, as I share concerns about keeping redundant information up-to-date across multiple pages. However, I don't understand why this template was singled out over everything else in Category:Mammal species templates and it's subcategories. Many (but not all) mammal species have navboxes. Very few other organisms have navboxes like mammals do. If I was going to single out one mammal species navbox for deletion it would be {{Murinae (Others)}}. The subfamily Murinae is split across 10 navboxes, why not just make one (massive) navbox for the subfamily? And putting two genera in the "Others" navbox is completely unintuitive for readers when the other navboxes are arranged by parts of the alphabet. Plantdrew (talk) 20:46, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗plicit 14:19, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think broadly the idea of navboxes which link the tree of life are reasonable. So from that direction I think this is a keep. However, I think this navbox does too much. It links pages which are clearly not WP:BIDIRECTIONAL (the parent taxa), and links multiple of the child taxa and their children, which I am not generally a fan of (see also User:Izno/Navbox constellations which pretty-naturally apply here). Izno (talk) 18:34, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    On the other hand, these topics are usually well-linked on the articles themselves to the child and parent topics. So yeah, I don't totally see the point in navboxes for tree of life stuff. Izno (talk) 20:01, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete, there is extra overhead of maintaining subfamily navboxes and I don't think there is significant added benefit (due to the navigational redundancy). Frietjes (talk) 16:04, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unused math table. If used should be subst directly into article. Gonnym (talk) 09:34, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. A truncated version of the table is already in Exact trigonometric values#Common angles. Substing the template into that article would not provide any additional information to the reader, since all the values can be derived from the angles of the first quadrant so don't do that either.
