The form this template takes is highly unsatisfactory. The sections on "notable Acts" will become either inordinately long (they arguably already are) or a POV selection. The chances are that all or the overwhelming majority of the public Acts are notable, because the body of literature on them is enormous. I cannot endorse the use of this template in its present form.
It is also not clear to me why we want to exclude legislation from the other Parliaments that appeared in Template:UK legislation. James500 ( talk) 09:36, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
I have removed the section on "notable Acts". I think this is an improvement for the reasons given above, and also on grounds that Wikipedia should not contain self-references (in this case to WP:N) because they are WP:CIRCULAR. James500 ( talk) 11:34, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
I have striken certain remarks above. I'm not sure what criteria a list of the most significant Acts would employ. You might be better off with a series of templates for Acts that relate to specific subjects. James500 ( talk) 09:46, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
