I'm not sure of the origins of this template, but it was largely imposed on 'Listed buldings in... ' articles earlier this year. I'm not here to criticise (there have been many new list articles created which previously didn't exist), but I'm wondering where the best place is to discuss changes to it? To be honest, my biggest bugbear is the "Function" column, which seems a waste of valuable screen space - in 95% of cases the building type is abundantly obvious. Can this be removed?

That is simple enough to remove if people want. Wouldn't even have to modify the articles the template are being used on. -- KTC (talk) 22:09, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Great work on these lists. You may have already gone through lots of ideas about references/external links for each property, in which case feel free to ignore this, but I just wondered if adding a ref to www.britishlistedbuildings in the HB field would add a lot of benefit. In particular it would:-
satisfy the wikipedia need for reliable citations to back up the content
give a further source of additional information one click away
geogroup map pins will then link back to the relevant point on the list.
The drawback, of course, is that you in effect reproduce the entire list again in the form of references, but that is mostly not a real problem, as the brilliant template you have can automate the whole thing. If the row template hb entry was altered to completely ignore the 'url' option (much better to keep that within the template, in case it changes) and then use {{{hb|}}}<ref>[http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/wa-{{{hb|}}} British Listed Buildings {{{hb|}}}]: {{{name|}}}</ref>, that would produce a ref entry that (for example) looked like this: 5275[1]
