Template talk:Galveston, Texas

Feedback - suggestion for change
You might want to consider the following two changes to this template:


 * 1. Smaller font for the detail
 * 2. Provide show/hide option

See, for instance, Template:Alibend --Tagishsimon (talk) 01:59, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Observation
Just an observation: The navbox seems a bit detailed compared to typical navboxes and seems to cherry-pick certain things. Specifically:
 * The list of companies is pretty cherry-picked (and this section is atypical of most navboxes); there are other comparably important businesses omitted
 * The education and healthcare sections are a bit specific for a navbox.
 * The media section is very trivial for a navbox.

 * The companies listed are those which are based in Galveston for whom articles exist.
 * The navbox was used as a template in the creation of this navbox template.

 * I get it. But I would argue that "for whom articles exist" is not a good criterion. If an entity is important and an article does not exist then it should be created (at least a stub). By the same token just because an article exists does not mean it merits inclusion.
 * WRT Laredo, I would argue that this is not a great navbox either. For one it is way too long. is a pretty good one.  and  are decent too.

 * In a small town with a limited number of businesses, especially those of any size, I think the inclusion point becomes moot. If the business article survives based on WP:RS and WP:NOTE, it can probably merit inclusion (based upon the limited number of total businesses).
 * WRT Laredo, I wasn't discussing the merits of the Laredo infobox, just simply stating the Galveston one was based upon it. -- nsaum75 ¡שיחת! 15:02, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

OK, whatever. Just suggestions. --Mcorazao (talk) 19:25, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
