Per WP:NOTGUIDE, I am not sure this template should exist. We have Wikivoyage for that. Have I misunderstood the policy? Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk) 23:06, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
This template seems more "Tourist attractions in" rather than "Tourism in", latter implies the industry rather than specific attractions, so namewise lacking scope. However, NOTGUIDE is more on the little details such as opening hours, so not fully applied here. While general articles do not need every tourist attraction, lists or templates could, although nation-wide tourist attraction templates are rare (we do not however, have to follow existing use), seems more common to split tourism attractions by categories for templates or have more localised templates. For example, the pre-existing Wales Museums and Heritage railways templates which this template greatly overlaps with or a local one for Cardiff. What is the criteria for "other attractions"? Is this a personal/one source definition? The template does lack scope, more on "notable things to do in Wales" rather than "how tourism operates". Removing individual attractions to just the organisations and list articles seems to improve scope in the absence of context. Small templates are not bad, not everything has to be in one template. The regional boards seem defunct btw. Dank Jae 01:34, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
