Moving the template to "Infobox medical condition"

The problem is that this messes up the translation tool. A bunch of other languages have adopted the "new" template. Thus we need to keep the "new" here to keep those connections. If we drop the "new" than this template becomes associated with the old template in all the other languages which results in a mess.

Doc James Which languages? All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 10:58, 13 April 2019 (UTC).[reply]

The 40 languages listed here[1].

All these languages use both the old and the new infobox medical condition. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 14:57, 13 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not all of them. I think 17 have Infobox medical condition (new), I haven't checked which of those have Infobox medical condition.

All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 20:47, 22 April 2019 (UTC).[reply]

Why can't this just be fixed? Move Template:Infobox medical condition (new) to Template:Infobox medical condition and change Wikidata:Q22765453 so that it points to Template:Infobox medical condition. Is this not enough? I have removed Template:Infobox medical condition from Wikidata:Q6436840 as there is no Infobox there anymore, just a redirect. Wikidata:Q6436840 could, if wanted be linked to Template:Infobox medical condition (old) after the redirect has been moved. Having to keep (new) for all eternity seems dumb, and fixing it now should be easier than fixing it later? @Doc James: Tholme (talk) 15:34, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Tholme other languages still have two infoboxes as they have not completed the switch over yet. So redirecting at Wikidata would result in two different templates pointing to a single Wikidata item.

But I see you moved the EN one to "old". Moving the EN one will result in confusion with respect to naming. As other languages uses "new" / just plain template. Moving it does not fix anything of significance. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 17:54, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I havent moved the EN one, I have changed the label name on Wikidata:Q6436840 to (old) as and deleted the link to enwiki ad it is a template no longer in use. I will create a move request and we can see what others say. Tholme (talk) 21:05, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 3 June 2019

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Moved. See general agreement below to drop the "new" qualifier. That title will of course redirect to the new template title. Kudos to editors for your input, and Happy Publishing! (nac by page mover) Paine Ellsworth, ed. ^put'r there 01:37, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It was proposed in this section that Template:Infobox medical condition (new) be renamed and moved to Template:Infobox medical condition.

The discussion has been closed, and the result will be found in the closer's comment.

Links: current log • target log

Template:Infobox medical condition (new) → Template:Infobox medical condition – Template:Infobox medical condition is now just a redirect to Template:Infobox medical condition (new). Remove the unnecessary suffix. Move old template Template:Infobox medical condition (old) to keep history. See also discussion above. Tholme (talk) 21:14, 3 June 2019 (UTC) --Relisted. Paine Ellsworth, ed. ^put'r there 19:24, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. As the nom has noted, Template:Infobox medical condition redirects to Template:Infobox medical condition (new). Listing it as a page to be moved (to Template:Infobox medical condition (old), which also redirects to Template:Infobox medical condition (new)) has resulted in a malformed requested move, because redirects should not be nominated to be renamed. To fix this, I have removed the redirect from this request. Paine Ellsworth, ed. ^put'r there 00:08, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I started to move this page using the round robin to preserve the redirect's non-trivial page history, and before I could finish I read the previous discussion. This request should remain open in case more input is needed to resolve the translation tool issue noted in the previous discussion. Paine Ellsworth, ed. ^put'r there 02:04, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support change. Other languages, if want to import this should adopt and fix their code. There is no reason at all for a malformed title like this to be a primary title for an infobox. --Gonnym (talk) 08:51, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
