Propose merging Template:User page mbox and Template:User talk page mbox with Template:User page.
Template:User page/sandbox can now support this style with the parameter |style=no. See Template:User page/testcases#Default Mbox look for examples. Gonnym (talk) 12:02, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Digestive system and abdomen symptoms and signs. Primefac (talk) 19:08, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Eponymous medical signs for digestive system and general abdominal signs with Template:Digestive system and abdomen symptoms and signs.
In line with the general approach to merge eponymous medical signs and symptoms templates, I propose that these are merged. Benefits are:

  • Remove the arbitrary division between signs and symptoms that a person has given their name to, compared with those without
  • Help readers navigate the topic more easily
  • Reduce duplication

A merged template can be well organised and, whilst expanding in size, is likely to be of much greater help to readers than the current unhelpful division. Tom (LT) (talk) 02:03, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge As I've said before them being eponymous doesn't make them special in anything but the name. This does not warrant a separate navbox and merging with the related non-eponymous navbox is probably the best solution. --Trialpears (talk) 06:54, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This very broad template should be deleted and split into two smaller templates with a more narrow range. This will help the content be organised, help narrow the scope, and make the navboxes easier for readers to access and use:

The result of the discussion was soft delete. Reasonable nomination, no opposition. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the template's undeletion. Primefac (talk) 19:05, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This template should be deleted. It is a list of tumours that, when viewed under a microscope, appear small and blue. This does not lead to any meaningful links between the topics and only really helps as an aid to diagnosis for histopathologists. In doing this, it violates WP:NOTTEXTBOOK. This template should simply be deleted. The contents are already contained within the article Small-blue-round-cell tumor. Tom (LT) (talk) 00:45, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I propose this template is deleted, because it is very broad and difficult to use to navigate. That's because it contains two conceptually different concepts. It should be split to reflect this into:

Following this, the template will be much easier to use for navigation, as well as more targeted. Tom (LT) (talk) 00:32, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
