Propose merging Template:Trump with Template:Donald_Trump_series.
Maybe split the "Family" section as well, for this template is overly long IMO. The "series" template should replace most of the instances of {{Trump}} if applicable. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 23:45, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose merge, suggest split of navbox – A merge doesn't make much sense, as one template is a navbox and the other is a sidebar. I agree that the navbox should be seriously trimmed, or perhaps split in two navboxes, one focusing on Trump's family and businesses, another one focusing on his political activities and presidency. — JFG talk 00:05, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose merge It makes no sense to merge a series box with a navbox. They serve separate purposes in different locations.   Spartan7W §   00:22, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong oppose, per above. MB298 (talk) 00:24, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose where else on Wikipedia are two unrelated boxes merged like that? One is primary subject, the other is primary, secondary, and tertiary. Semmendinger (talk) 00:46, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - These two boxes are too different. Yoshiman6464 (talk) 01:52, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose: Two templates that serve completely different purposes. pbp 02:30, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong oppose For many of the reasons already given. Calibrador (talk) 03:42, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose – How on Earth do you suggest we go about merging a navbox and an infobox? Plus, they have separate purposes anyway. Dustin (talk) 05:06, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - I cant imagine any graceful way to merge the two templates - either we have one gigantic monstrosity with too much irrelevant information on every page, or a grossly shortened version that does not do justice to the various interests of Donald Trump - neither solution can be described as desirable. BrxBrx(talk)(please reply with { {re|BrxBrx}}) 06:47, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong oppose - Per everyone else. Parsley Man (talk) 08:31, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong oppose - Pretty confident that Donald Trump is not the only example of a person on Wikipedia who has two templates like this. Plus, these templates are exist for two very different purposes. I can't honestly imagine what merging them would look like. Alxeedo TALK 11:28, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - The templates serve different purposes and help to organize the many nav links.- MrX 12:58, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This undocumented, unused template does not appear to work: it just applies a visibility-hidden style to any content passed to it, and a "ShowOnlyToLoggedInUsers" class which has no effect. An example of it not working, of the templated word "test" inside quote marks: "{{Show only to logged in users|test}}". McGeddon (talk) 10:08, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As with the other members of Category:Trylie's Flag Templates, this is a jarring Template that visually supersedes the established method of hatnotes and veers into a non-encyclopedic WP:TONE, especially with its title choice. (I would think, of almost universal necessity, that all flags have colors in them and can think of no colorless ones.) The template repeats information that could easily be contained in the WP:MOS parameter of WP:ALSO. (The whole template seems simply redundant and unnecessary.)
