[edit] Nazism and socialism - discuss and vote on which page text should appear

Discussions of the relationship between Fascism and socialism and Nazism and socialism keep appearing on multiple pages. On what page does the section on Nazism and socialism belong?

Fascism and ideology---Nazism in relation to other concepts---Fascism and socialism---Nazism and socialism

Please discuss and vote on this dispute at this talk page]. Thanks. --Cberlet 15:08, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A little too long?

Is it just me or has this template grown to an excessively large size? Perhaps it would be time to remove some of the less relevant articles from it. -- Nikodemos 09:58, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name change?

What is the issue with Vision Thing renaming this template? See: [1]. There has been no discussion of this, and it appears to be part of an idiosyncratic POV campaign. Any comments? I am reverting pending discussion.--Cberlet 19:36, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

I agree. He's just trying to tie together two unrelated things to promote his POV. The Nazis were economically corporatist and hated the socialists, who were also among their biggest critics. Sarge Baldy 22:30, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Horizontal Box

The vertical box has become to long I suggest we make it horizontal at this point. Inevitably, it will only grow longer. LindaWarheads 13:08, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

What about making parts of it collapsible? (i.e. like Template:Korean's "show" button?) --Fastfission 01:46, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Here is a very ugly first attempt by someone who doesn't quite understand how this works:

It's not quite there but you can't deny it uses space efficiently! --Fastfission 01:56, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

I say we just cut down on the articles in the list. This happens with every navigation template every once in a while: people keep adding their favourite articles to it, even when they are not particularly important, until the template must be reduced in size.

For example, instead of having a whole list of Nazi eugenics articles, we could have a single link pointing to one article or list. -- Nikodemos 02:47, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

OK, but where to draw the line? --Fastfission 19:39, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, the way we draw the line with most templates is by consensus of the editors working on those templates... We should use the same approach here. -- Nikodemos 02:58, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

• Make Horizontal: I think a horizontal box, at the bottom of articles is better, long-term:

• Growing vertical-boxes can upset formatting of previous articles with images;
• More Nazi-related articles arrive due to notability (Nazis started WWII);
• Cleanup is rare/unpleasant: Nazi topics are unpleasant to rewrite/condense;
• Anti-Semitism was rampant, prompting more articles, rather than cleanup;
• White supremacy links Nazism before 1912: 4 original decades of articles;

I suspect the Nazi articles will grow, like important computer software with "creeping featurism" addressing a larger user-base, so a horizontal, bottom-template allows for future growth without impacting the future vertical format of the growing list of Nazi articles. -Wikid77 14:06, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
