Group structuring

Sardanaphalus (talk · contribs) added the group name "Overview" for the first list, to complement "Features" for the second. I removed the name, arguing that it did not accurately describe the first list and was superfluous. Sardanaphalus then posted the following to my talkpage:

"Fair enough; as you probably guessed, I did simply invent the description in order to provide a groupname to complement "Features". Perhaps, then, "Features" may as well be removed too -- it otherwise seems to draw too much attention..? Sardanaphalus (talk) 02:02, 23 September 2008 (UTC)"

The issue here for me is that the first list is a list of the main (i.e. most relevant and important) articles we have on anarcho-capitalism, whereas the second list contains articles on aspects or features of an anarcho-capitalist society (in other words, anarcho-capitalist theory). Taking a cue from music band templates where the members are listed without description as members (i.e. {{Rage Against the Machine}}), followed by other articles related to the band in named groups (i.e. Albums, Tours, Videos), I thought leaving the main articles undescribed while describing the "aspects of anarcho-capitalist society" as Features (of "Anarcho-capitalism", by implication). Is this appropriate, should there be two named groups, or none? the skomorokh 13:06, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

• Apart from doing nothing (if that's the consensus) I imagine there's a few possibilities, e.g. rather than sitting on the lefthand side, the "Features" label might sit above the list that follows. I guess, though, the discussion first is whether or not to include "Features" and/or a label for the first list. Sardanaphalus (talk) 14:17, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Symbol

We don't get to choose symbols in this way - maybe it is appropriate, but I can't find evidence. I do know that cuneiform experts don't say it means freedom, that's a political interpretation. I'm happy to be shown that I'm wrong about it not being a well known symbol in the movement, but it needs to be demonstrated. Dougweller (talk) 11:55, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

I can't speak for whether the cuneiform symbol was appropriate, but in the meantime I've replaced it with the yellow and black AnCap flag. We can agree that that's an appropriate symbol, surely? — SolarStarSpire (talk) 05:09, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

Decorative images do not add informative value and Wikipedia navboxes and sidebars no longer feature them. Regarding coloring, see WP:Deviations. —Omnipaedista (talk) 21:46, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

Link to deleted portal removed

The Anarcho-capitalism portal was recently deleted. I've removed the link from the template. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 12:36, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

Removal of custom colors

I've removed the use of custom colors from this template, as I have also done with the navboxes for Nazism, Neo-Nazism, Anarchism, Libertarianism, Liberalism, Communism, and other ideologies. None of these color schemes serve any encyclopedic purpose, and are solely decoration for the sake of decoration. -- The Anome (talk) 11:04, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
