Does anyone think we should do a section just on the UN, then break down into other international, regional, and multilateral bodies? The UN is the gold standard on human rights. I'm thinking it might help. Thoughts? Phyesalis (talk) 05:17, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Split template or collapse subsections

This template is overwhelmingly large, it would probably be easier to use if split into several templates (e.g. Concepts & Philosophies; Organisations; Legal instruments; and Concepts that may be considered as human rights). Or at least make the major subsections individually collapsible (and start out collapsed, so can reveal as needed). Zodon (talk) 00:50, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Does it matter if the thing is always collapsed by default anyway? It's only large when opened... Tkn20 (talk) 16:43, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes it does matter, what good is something that is hard to use only when you try to use it? It is when it is expanded that it gets overwhelming. The purpose of navigational templates is to make it easy to get around, not cram in everything Wikipedia:Navigational_templates#Navigational templates provide navigation. This template has too much on it to be easily comprehended. Any one of the major sections is a bit on the large side for an easy to use navigational template, together it is just too much.
The examples on the navigational templates page show ways of making collapsible sections. I think splitting it into a few templates (as listed above) with collapsible sections would make it manageable. (Even with judicious editing there is probably just too much here for one template.)

Abortion as a reproductive right

This seems very simple to me. Abortion is considered a reproductive right. We have it under the heading "Concepts that may be considered as human rights" so we aren't taking sides and list a number of other disputed so-called rights. I don't understand the reasoning for removing it, and it seems that conversations taking place elsewhere are trying to be used here. Please, let's discuss this matter here. If we want to make changes to this template, they need to be discussed here, not on other pages. Thanks.-Andrew c [talk] 02:58, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
