The template does not use this CSS, so we should delete it. Did Q28 make a mess today? 04:32, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom and Pppery. There's nothing unwieldy about this template (and if there is, that suggests other remedy than keeping it in the template space: either total deletion or a better template). --Izno (talk) 06:00, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Adjacent communities. Primefac (talk) 11:44, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Geographic Location 2 with Template:Adjacent communities.
I don't see why we need two of these Frietjes (talk) 15:44, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with merge into Adjacent communities (or Template:Adjacent jurisdictions - better name actually). As far as I can tell, Template:Geographic Location 2 is an old version of Adjacent communities and only has extra compass points. After inserting this template for 1000s of places, I can tell that those extra compass points are not needed and unhelpful. So, just a plain redirect would also suffice if possible. If that is not possible, then those extra compass points should be deprecated or retired. -- P 1 9 9   17:21, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Don't merge. My many pages need the extra compass points provided by GeoLoc2, which are not provided by Adjacent communities. Ron Clausen (talk) 08:25, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The extra directions are needless precision. This template is only a navigational aid to go from one article to the next, not a precise map. If you need to stack multiple places, just use breaks (<br/>), see for example Torsby Municipality.
If this template is kept, it should at least be reformatted to look the same as Adjacent communities. -- P 1 9 9   14:18, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have no problem with reformatting it to look the same. My issue is losing the information at the hundreds of places that I have used GeoLoc2. If someone is volunteering to make all those updates, let me know. Ron Clausen (talk) 09:19, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
apparently there is a misunderstanding of what "merge means"? I don't see how information is lost by merging. Frietjes (talk) 23:08, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ron Clausen, when you say "do not merge" it seems like you are saying "do not delete". A "merge" would preserve the extra directions. The original proposal was not the delete anything, as far as I can tell. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 14:29, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • OK, as long as no data is lost, and the extra directions are not lost in the merge. "Merge" sounded to me like the extra directions might be deleted. Looking at this new template on pages it has now appeared sometimes seems awkward because mountains or such are not always exactly "Adjacent", but may be at a distance. Ron Clausen (talk) 20:53, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Location and communities are two separate things. If any town or city has the Geographic location template that it should be removed. It's redundant to the adjacent communities which is used at the bottom of these articles for the county, particularly in the U.S., where the town is in. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 02:36, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Don't let the names of the templates fool you: they do the exact same thing (in fact, template:Adjacent communities was formerly template:Geographic location). GeoLoc2 was just a fork of GeoLoc with a few extra compass directions. And as far as I know, there is no instance where an article has both templates. -- P 1 9 9   15:07, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm, pretty strange that it was redirected to Adjacent communities instead of Geographic location 2. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:43, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
logs are useful. Frietjes (talk) 21:51, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I saw the edit history but the RM proposal is ridiculous., but I can now see the need for merge, but the Geographic location template that is used in any articles not at the bottom should be removed. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:08, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge, two templates that do the same thing. As far as I can tell, all that is required for the merge is to split the row with the up and down arrows into multiple cells. We can always track and/or deprecate the extra 4 directions. Using tables to convey directions is bad for accessibility, but using <br> for lists or in place of table cells is worse. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 14:26, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge, though I would welcome a larger discussion on the utility of these templates at all. --Izno (talk) 22:38, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Izno: FYI, a discussion on this template already took place in the recent past, see Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2017_August_6#Template:Geographic_location. Remember that this template only serves as a navigational tool, similar to other navboxes, it's not meant to be a detailed map. -- P 1 9 9   14:31, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
