The two primary defining categories of this template - paid and free - are unworkably simplistic and misleading with many of the listed organizations employing many different models. It might be possible to construct a new template with appropriate categories but this one is fatally defective. ElKevbo (talk) 22:40, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'll defer to ElKevbo's judgement as I'm not overly familiar with online education. I'm not sure I see anything fatally flawed here, though; couldn't we just remove the grouping so that they're all alphabetical and move the navbox to {{Online education}}? {{u|Sdkb}} talk 07:58, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
We could do that but I'm just not sure how a template of any kind would be helpful for readers. This is a very complex market with every possible permutation of services and fees and I don't know how a template can capture any of that. Frankly, I'm also worried about this is a spam magnet given the always shifting players in this market and how eager VCs (and universities) have always been to fund new companies; I'm pleased and surprised that this hasn't yet been a significant, lasting problem but I wonder if that's only because the template isn't used in many places so it has rather low visibility.

  • Delete (without replacing) The paid/free — and even nonprofit/for-profit — categories are sometimes misleading because several institutions leverage different subtleties and nuances. Mᵒdᵘlᵃtᵒ.📩 13:23, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete without replacing per Modulato. I just don't see any permutation of this navbox serving a useful navigational value, there are way too many ways and nuances and variations for a navbox to be useful. I think this is best served by a category. --Tom (LT) (talk) 05:12, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
