Propose merging Template:Charlie Chaplin with Template:Charlie Chaplin filmography.
There shouldn't two navboxes for one subject. All the filmography navbox entries can easily be added to the Chaplin navbox with a section for films directed by Chaplin. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 18:56, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note that any film listed in those templates that is for an acting role should be removed per WP:FILMNAV. Gonnym (talk) 11:01, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reverse Merge - As noted above, while he directed many of his films, any which were for acting-only should be pruned due to WP:FILMNAV and MOS:FILMNFI#Navigation. - jc37 16:36, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Reverse merge to {{Charlie Chaplin}} per Jc37. SWinxy (talk) 19:20, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Reverse merge as above, simply adding his filmography into the main navbox. I have removed the actor-only films from {{Charlie Chaplin filmography}} so that it should be straightforward to merge. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:52, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Violates MOS:FILMNFI. These two navboxes entire listing is found on articles for both actors' filmography pages. We don't need navboxes for the entire filmography. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 18:23, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Violates MOS:FILMNFI, how? Keep: I understand that your concern is redundancy but, depending on the reader's habits, I would tend to think that bottom page navboxes can be useful even if they duplicate lists of films. I'd rather improve/expand/shorten this kind of templates. Also the filmographies and articles display the titles differently and navigation is also about layout, in my opinion. -My, oh my!

Template:Daniel Day-Lewis (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Violates MOS:FILMNFI. This is just a list of the actor's filmography based on starring and non-starring roles. This does not serve a navigational purpose as the films Lewis has been in can be found linked on his filmography article and his main article. Navboxes are not supposed to duplicate a list that can and does serve a better purpose on article space. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:55, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Case-sensitive (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unnecessary and obnoxious. Zinnober9 (talk) 15:57, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep — Okay, I tagged my other one for speedy deletion because you were absolutely correct, but I actually love this one. Just because the template has dimension and a graphic doesn’t make it obnoxious. The graphic is related to the purpose of template (made it myself - please hold your applause, Jonesey95. This doesn’t need to be nominated. Where does it say that a template cannot be more dynamic rather than just flat and boring? Absolutely disagree with this one. I will be casting a vote to keep and hope that others see my point.

Carry on with the discussion if you must. I this this one looks great.

Oops you’re not Jonesey95… well it looks like I got the whole template community out for blood. I won’t lie, I am a bit scared… do your worst. *shakes fist* 4theloveofallthings (talk) 16:14, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Don’t worry I know it’s not. I’m not actually upset. Lol. Thanks for linking info, I will absolutely give it a read. 4theloveofallthings (talk) 16:18, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Jonesey95 Zinnober9

I am tagging Template:Case-sensitive with {{db-author}}. Believe it or not, I actually learned a lot about making templates during the process of making these monstrosities. I will take that and keep it, and you can send these templates to template hell where they probably belong. Although, I still think the case-sensitive one looks very nice… but that’s just me! 4theloveofallthings (talk) 16:24, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

{{db-author}} added to the template. Now will someone at least fix Template:Substituted as it is not obnoxious enough for a notice regarding the functionality of a template. 4theloveofallthings (talk) 15:52, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 23:22, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per MOS:FILM#Navigation, "WikiProject consensus is against including actor templates since not all actors have substantial appearances in all their films and since multiple actors in a film would overpopulate the bottom of a film article with actor templates regardless of role prominence." Readers can go to Ronald Reagan to find other works, and at most, there could be a "See also" section linking to Ronald Reagan filmography. It does not warrant naming all his films within each film's article. Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 18:39, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
