Template:Cite manual (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

TfD May 21, 202

Propose to merge {{cite manual}} to {{cite book}}. There are only three differences between these two templates:

  • Citation class=manual vs. Citation class=book
  • {{Cite manual}} supports section as an alias to chapter
  • {{Cite manual}} supports sectionurl as an alias to chapterurl
Specific proposal:
Thanks. But: "no links need be changed, as the template is redirected": As far as i know, Wiki does NOT support redirect, tried it with NAVBOX template (without javascript).
If you have other experiences, i'm interested. Or: Make a quick, temporal redirect (probably in your user-space), as i expect thousands of link-changes. Tagremover (talk) 16:24, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Can be done easily with AWB. - Presidentman talk · contribs Random Picture of the Day (Talkback) 18:52, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
There are 1081 transclusions, and we don't usually change talk pages or archives. But, we don't have to. The redirect will work. For example, {{cite paper}} still works because it redirects to {{cite journal}}. {{cite paper |last=Last |title=Title |work=Work |year=2012}} → Last (2012). "Title". Work. I just can't explain this any better. --— Gadget850 (Ed) talk 20:52, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Thaden aircraft (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

3 articles, main subject has no article. doesnt need a navbox. i added "see alsos" to each of the 3 articles. Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:49, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep most aircraft articles have these navbox to lead to others from the same manufacturer even when the manufacturer's article is yet to be written. If anything, these are more useful when this is the case than when a manufacturer's article exists.TSRL (talk) 09:51, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - This nav box has a complete list of notable aircraft by the same manufacturer. There is no need to delete the box just because the manufacturer itself doesn't have an article at the present time. Keep in mind that these nav boxes are primarily here to be useful to the readers and in linking to all other aircraft types made by this manufacturer this nav box is definitively useful to readers. If the redlink is really that much of a bother then remove the redlink rather than the nav box. - Ahunt (talk) 13:21, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
