This would make the issue templates more specific, allowing for a range of benefits, such as prioritization for volunteers of which articles to work on (BLPs). General fixes will be enabled; most of the replacements above are through GenFixes. Pinging {{u|GoingBatty}}, who originally had this listed as an idea on [[User:BattyBot]] {{smiley}}

Discussion

  • Fine in theory, but it makes me wonder why these templates aren't merged in the underlying code, with the output changing based on whether the BLP cat is present. It would make the template slightly easier to use, automatically changes when a living person deceases, and (during the initial merge run) helps a bit in ensuring BLPs are tagged with the BLP cat.
