Template talk:G20

Navbox consensus
There are plausible reasons for modifying the navbox templates at the bottom of the page at G-20 major economies. An opportunity for discussion needs to be part of any process which precedes change. Three arguable improvements are:

A. Combining two of the current navboxes at the bottom of the page?
 * template name to remain the same G20&mdash;Template:G20?
 * new template would be similar to APEC&mdash;Template:Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation
 * this would mean removing G-20 leaders' summits&mdash;Template:G-20 leaders' summits?

B. Deleting the current leaders navbox?
 * This is a poor subject for a navbox because leaders change irregularly over time. The functional utility of this navbox is not greater or better than one which only shows member nations.
 * this would mean removing Current G20 Leaders&mdash;Template:Current G20 Leaders?

C.Standardize/harmonize to "G20" without hyphen?
 * Only G-15 must have a hyphen, consistent with the group's official web site?

D. Perhaps decision-making may be helped by comparing an array of similar groups and templates?

 * Template:Current APEC Leaders?

This recent MOS discussion came to the unanimous conclusion that flags and seals do not belong in navboxes; they updated the relevant policy as a result. The flag code should be removed. Thrakkx (talk) 18:33, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
