What is the issue with this template? Edward-Woodrow :) [talk] 22:01, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think this part of WP:TG might apply: Templates should not normally be used to store article text, as this makes it more difficult to edit the content. jlwoodwa (talk) 22:13, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
But it's a citation template. These are widely used (e.g., {{cite iucn}}, {{Grove1900}}). Speedy keep. Edward-Woodrow :) [talk] 13:08, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is a classic example of a template that serves to add a layer of complexity to something for no apparent benefit. Do we really need funky formatting of initials, and if so do we really need a template to do it? * Pppery * it has begun... 16:54, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This template is a combination and fork of Template:Infobox comics character and Template:Infobox comic book title. This means that any changes to one of those templates requires to also change this template (if consistency is wanted). Instead what should be done is allowing Template:Infobox comics character to embed Template:Infobox comic book title. This proposal is to replace usages with Infobox comics character embeding Infobox comic book title. Gonnym (talk) 05:18, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
