This navbox is a bad idea[edit]

Hi, I recommend against the use of this navbox (or navboxes in general). First, it is useless: very few readers, if any, will want to navigate only among the LRSD schools, and not to other schools (or other things) in Winnipeg (or other places). Those few readers who *do* want all school in LRSD will be better served by the Louis Riel School Division article, which besides listing the schools also tells their grades (and could give more info, such as city boroughs). On the other hand, a navbox wastes a large portion of screen space, takes substantial work to write and maintain, and — being a canned content replicated in mutiple articles — lowers the "informatin density" and therefore the value of Wikipedia. All the best, --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 01:34, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
