Template:Boten–Vientiane railway route map[edit]

Hi. I'm probably missing something, but I don't understand these changes of yours at all. The article Boten–Vientiane railway states it runs between Boten and Vientiane, both in Laos. While your changes to the route map template suggest it lies entirely within China. They both can't be right. --DB1729^talk 04:13, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DB1729: Thanks for catching the error – that's what happens when one edits when they're tired. Useddenim (talk) 10:32, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Glad I could help:) I've put back the correct category. Indeed it was I who had added both the Laos and China category last year.[1] Something gave me the impression it ran through both countries I guess. Maybe I was tired too? --DB1729^talk 12:51, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've also fixed {{Railway-routemap}} so that it now includes Laos. Useddenim (talk) 14:21, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that and for all you do. Cheers! --DB1729^talk 14:25, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Track layout templates[edit]

Wikipedia:Template namespace says "Templates that violate the guidelines on this page, have poorly defined function, are redundant, become orphaned or used on only one page, or violate any Wikipedia policies may be nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Templates for discussion." How does moving track layouts for a single station to a template not violate this? Most of these templates have no chance of being used on more than one page. Steelkamp (talk) 05:14, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Steelkamp: This question keeps coming up every few years, and the consensus is always the same: because of their nature (a highly technical markup language) and the fact that a single incorrect character can cause an entire page to blow up, it is best to keep them separated from the rest of the article. Wikipedia talk:Route diagram template/Archive 9#Route Diagram Templates is only one of the discussions. Useddenim (talk) 19:07, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, by being stand-alone templates, it helps with categorization by not being dependent on the parent article. Useddenim (talk) 19:08, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) I agree with Useddenim. There's long-standing consensus at TfD that RDTs do not violate the guideline. Consensus can change of course, but this has actually come up several times; it's not a case of a long-standing issue flying under the radar. Mackensen (talk) 19:17, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
