How to fix bunched-up edit links


The template this corresponds to has now been deleted, so these instructions, which have been historical for a while, should now be deleted, along with the shortcuts WP:BUNCH and WP:BUNCHING and various others. (I suggest this because the template has been deleted, not the length of time it has been historical.)

Note one of the redirects is currently WP:STACK, but this shortcut is not used anywhere, so it can be deleted too, or redirected to where WP:Stack goes. Mark Hurd (talk) 07:02, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep the page as this was a problem for many years and is still of interest to understand how we got to where we are now. The redirects can however be deleted as they will not be of use now (unless still used in other pages). Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:30, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd agree except the template it is describing has been deleted, so it really explains nothing. Mark Hurd (talk) 13:31, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep and change emphasis from problems with bunched [edit] links (which has been solved) to problems with stacked-up images and right-aligned box-type objects such as infoboxes (which has not been solved). The template still exists to fix this. A recent IP editor, but was reverted. -- Red rose64 (talk) 13:16, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd agree with this too, except stack and stack begin both have fairly complete documentation as is, and, according to historical, repurposing should be suggested at the Village pump. Mark Hurd (talk) 13:31, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. We shouldn't delete our history without good reason.  This has dozens of authors, a long talk page, and a very long list of incoming links.  I do wish that we didn't delete old templates, as it breaks old versions of pages, and makes it hard to understnad the history.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 13:51, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - This looks like a valid piece of history, and shouldn't be deleted just because it is outdated. People could still be interested in it.  Hi 8 7 8   (Come shout at me!) 19:08, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. This page used to be incredibly useful. Graham 87 05:57, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
