Invalid template. There is no policy that outright allows for protection from deletion; even if a page isn't vandalism or a blatant hoax, it may still be eligible for deletion under other criteria. cymru.lass (talkcontribs) 21:27, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User: Yaffles1981 it was my intention to develop the politics pages for each department. Happy to take guidance but pages on other countries especially UK and US much more detailed and i didn't want to clutter the main department pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yaffles1981 (talkcontribs) 09:09, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:European nobility with Template:Nobility by nation.
Redundancy. Overlap. Chicbyaccident (talk) 18:47, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose nobility templates should be organized by nation because the variations in usage, titulature, spelling, rank, entitlement, legalities, associated styles and honorifics are enormous even within the same country (for example, contrast English vs. Scottish use of Lord in the UK; Flemish vs. French use of Jonkheer vs. Écuyer in Belgium; Austrian customs on use of Baron vs Freiherr, etc.), and are compounded by conflicting usages between nations in Europe (Prinz and Fürst have very different meanings in German, yet are both translated as "prince" in English; a "countess" may be the wife of a count or of an earl but the latter terms are not interchangeable, whereas the wife of a marquis may be a marquise or a marchioness but the latter terms are not interchangeable; the precedence accorded to those historically entitled to the style of Serene Highness is reversed in Germanic vs. Latin countries; the English language uses different terms, heir apparent vs. heir presumptive to distinguish different types of crown princes, but French makes no such distinction; etc.) Trying to use a single template to capture meaningful differences from one continent to another and across hundreds of cultures is an invitation to confusion and error. Let's not do it. FactStraight (talk) 19:34, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep In my mind, distinct functions. European monarchies are linked geographically, culturally, and by numerous historical interactions. The template in addition holds information about past monarchies. I think having a distinct template has navigational value and therefore should be kept. --Tom (LT) (talk) 01:23, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This template is more useful to its topics for its focus. Other more concise templates would serve most articles better too. The full "Nobility by nation" template is a space hog that I think is only suited to articles of a general and worldwide scope. SteveStrummer (talk) 05:21, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

delete, the template just contains redlinks, moreover it does not contain any monuments and memorials as the name seems to suggest. Moreover a template is not a list. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:06, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your instructions. In some cases I find that using of the “country topic” templates is a smarter solution than copying of full bulk of code into a binding template (e.g. Template:Environment of the United States by political division). I implemented the technique when creating Template:Lists of National Register of Historic Places in the United States by state (categories). Leonid Dobrov (talk) 09:12, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
