The Template:Voting, should be used on each of the articles if you guys want people to find the right information right away. Since other templates are also in use, maybe working with the show and hide buttons would help in getting the right template on the right pages and being consistent with every voting articles.

I added the merge template to this template and the Electoral systems template. They both seem to have the same point and massively overlap. They are also used inconsistently on pages that they both link to. Please add your opinion if you Agree or Disagree and a brief reason backing it up.-- Old Hoss 05:41, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
This is no longer applicable as the Voting and Electoral Systems templates no longer overlap. Rather than be merged, they were separated to cover their each individual aspects. -- Electiontechnology 02:07, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

The "Spoilt vote" removal was unintentional. Thanks for pointing that out, I put it back. Suffrage I was on the fence about. I really tried to limit the list to items directly related to voting rather that politics, elections as a whole, or electoral theory. (As we have existing templates for all of them) I also generally tried to keep the list to a manageable number.
The way these templates usually work is that the template containing the term is in each of the articles. This makes it difficult to have a term in more than one template, so I tried to limit double entries.
I'll try to explain the edit you referenced:
On the other matter, I think that is potentially good option. If it helps us limit multiple entries then I don't think it would be overload. Maybe their could be mini-versions of the other templates. Just throwing ideas out there. -- Electiontechnology 20:42, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
Since " Against all" is a redirect to " None of the Above", I will simply be bold & merge them in the template. Discuss-Dubious ( t/ c) 22:21, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Compared to Template:Electoral systems this template is a very tall and unordered list, which overwhelms short articles like Voting booth. It is worth splitting the template into sections by subject, and collapsing them? -- Lord Belbury ( talk) 15:04, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
