– For consistency across citation templates, and for proper capitalization of products, I think these templates should be renamed. SWinxy (talk) 18:35, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom and to be consistent with Template:Cite maps. —Anomalocaris (talk) 19:07, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as unnecessary. We also have templates like Template:OpenAI (which is not a navbox) and Template:Amazon (which is not about the rainforest or river). InfiniteNexus (talk) 23:27, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Those aren't citation templates, though. SWinxy (talk) 01:40, 15 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
My point is, template titles don't have to be this descriptive/unambiguous, unlike mainspace articles directed to readers. InfiniteNexus (talk) 04:39, 15 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support There's no harm in being clearer here. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:58, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support Clarification and uniformity seems to make sense here. Bestagon ⬡ 19:12, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
