Merge

I'd like to move forward with merging in {{Legal recognition of polygamy}}, and cleaning up after everything is done. I'd like to proceed with the following checklist.

Done check if all links in Legal recognition of polygamy are on this template
Done check if all pages in which Legal recognition of polygamy is transcluded have this template. If not, add it.
Done delete the template Legal recognition of polygamy

Sounds good? Any additions? Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 11:12, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm assuming you mean Template:Legal recognition of polygamy, not Template:Template:Legal recognition of polygamy, correct? ^—^Asterisk*^Splat^→ 15:43, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If I had a penny for every time I messed that up, I'd have 20, or 30 cent. Come to think of it, that's not all that much. But yes, that's what I meant (and fixed above). Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 15:49, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Item 1 done. Regarding item 2, some articles use {{Africa topic|Polygamy in}}; perhaps that should also be merged here? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 00:18, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly, I haven't seen it yet. I've removed the first 10 transclusions and inserted this template where it wasn't yet present. Maybe give this a day or two to see if it's not going to attract reversions/screaming hordes? In the mean time I'll take a look at {{Africa topic|Polygamy in}}

I can see the case for using {{Polygamous marriage}} rather than {{Africa topic|Polygamy in}}, but I think having both is for now the better solution. It's less likely to bring out the pitchforks, and more in line with the letter of the TfD. I don't know much about the subject anyway, and to make a call that's outside of my comfort zone in subject matter, and not directly in line with the outcome of a tfd decision makes me a little uncomfortable.

India

India now links to a disambiguation page. However, the articles suggest that neither polyandry nor polygyny are legal in India. Please can a subject expert sort the template out? Certes (talk) 11:23, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
