Details3 & For-on-see

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was relisted here. (non-admin closure) ~ RobTalk 02:21, 22 June 2016 (UTC) I've just made an improvement to details so that it supports multiple pages as part of its list, that is:
 * Details3
 * For-on-see

→  →

and it's now possible to do  →

and similar.

Previous cases have used details3 to implement lists with multiple pages:

→

Using details with a list of multiple pages is more elegant, and applies a set of standard improvements through its Lua implementation. We should migrate uses of details3 to use details instead, delete details3, and therefore simplify the hatnote system. For-on-see is along for the ride because it is a single-use meta-template for details3; it had 4 standalone uses which I've already replaced with details.

TfD regulars may recognize this hatnote system cleanup as a bit of a project of mine; previous similar TfDs have included About3 & About4 and Redirect6. {&#123; Nihiltres &#8202;&#124;talk&#8202;&#124;edits}&#125; 20:13, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

Italian cruiser navboxes

The result of the discussion was Request withdrawn (non-admin closure) — Andy W. ( talk  · ctb) 15:22, 14 June 2016 (UTC) Each navbox has a section that states the previous class and a successive class, which is what s-start, s-bef, s-ttl, s-aft, ... are used for. The navboxes are sequential, and lists a number of ships that fall into each class, which are minimal. Suggesting merging these navboxes into one. If the user needs help setting up the preceeding/successive cruiser classes, I'd volunteer to help out. — Andy W. ( talk  · ctb) 05:59, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Italian cruiser Pietro Micca
 * Italian cruiser Tripoli
 * Goito-class cruiser
 * Folgore-class cruiser
 * Partenope-class cruiser
 * Agordat_class cruiser

To elaborate, I suggest replacing the navboxes with a cumulative one, something like Special:Permalink/725204677. The succession boxes at the bottom is not meant to be part of the template. It's a just a demo. — Andy W. ( talk  · ctb) 06:36, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Just a heads up for your proposal - you would have to do that for every ship class article. What Parsecboy has done is pretty much standard among ship class articles. If you wish to establish a norm, you may have to go to WP:SHIPS and WP:MILHIST to get more input. Llammakey (talk) 09:07, 14 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Oppose - per Llammakey, this is standard practice across thousands of articles. Take a glance through Category:Military_ship_templates. Parsecboy (talk) 09:32, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
 * All right, thanks for the heads up. I didn't expect the scope of this change for consistency was much bigger. — Andy W. ( talk  · ctb) 15:22, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
