Template talk:Life in the United States

Suggestion for a new version
I personally like the horizontal style templates more, those are also easier to place in articles. So I made the following version, what do you think?

 * Hmm, I like it! Using the Life template got difficult in my Educational attainment in the United States article. So, I say go ahead and implement the changes! One question though-Is there any way to increase the font size of the articles listed? Regards,  Signature brendel  00:49, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Merger
It has been suggested that this or section be merged into Template:United States topics. It seems like this template has a lot of overlap with Template:United States topics, which is more comprehensive. I would like to have only one of these on the United States article, so I was thinking the easiest thing might be to simply merge them. This template includes many articles from different categories on the "US topics" list. We could either give each category its own navbox, or put the whole US topics box on each of the articles it references. -- Beland 23:44, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Oppose Of course, there's overlap. The US topics template is supposed to list all US related articles and has gotten so long that probably only few users actually make use of it. The Life in the US template makes navigating the most essential articles to understanding what its like to life in America easy. For the sake of our reader we ought to keep this template.

oppose this template has great value: it is short and points to 'life of the people' subjects only. Hmains 03:22, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
