Forum:CT Archive/Succession boxes vs. Templates

This question was raised at the last Mofference, where a consensus was not reached and it was decided to take this matter to CT. So I did. The question is: isn't it time to get rid of most (if not all) succession boxes, which are little more than Wikipedia artifacts that look boring next to our design? Oh, and they also create sourcing issues on some pages and are simply redundant in cases when we have nice, colored and easy to update templates to do the same. Actually, the proposal is to create new templates for all instances where succession boxes are currently used and the template is not yet present, and then use them instead.

Use Templates, kill the boxes
