Template:Antibiotics social and layman issues → Template:Use of antimicrobials – The current title is clunky, mildly offensive (as in "oh, it's just a layman issue, not a professional one"), gendered ("layman") and inaccurate ("antibiotics" should be "antimicrobials"). Additionally lots of the linked concepts are just general concepts (like antibiotics or antibiotic resistance) that are broader than just a 'social issue'. I think we should rename it to something like my proposed title for clarity and ease of use. A second-best title which I do not support is Template:Antimicrobials in society.

This template only has 14 transclusions - I think a better solution would be to merge it with the navbox Template:Antibiotics somehow, but failing that, the new proposed name is a good idea. Maybe the reason for so few transclusions is the name being so hard for someone to figure out. bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 03:53, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- I see your point, however my personal opinion is that it's better to have a small navbox that is easy to read with a defined scope, than a gigantic navbox such as Template:Antibiotics, which will be so large that its value as a navbox is close to useless. --Tom (LT) (talk) 23:35, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
