This template simply links to too few articles. Four albums to be exact. None of the band members have articles. Geschichte (talk) 17:18, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There are only five articles linked: the band's article, three albums and one album that redirects to the band. The three album articles should be redirected to the band for being non-notable, so there are not enough articles to justify having a navigational template.

Propose merging Template:Ship burial customs in Germanic paganism with Template:Death in Germanic mythology.
Interrelated topic, could possibly be collected in one and the same template? PPEMES (talk) 17:06, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose While the names make it sound like it would be appropriate, Ship burial customs in Germanic paganism is basically just a list of ship burial sites. The death in Germanic mythology doesn't (and shouldn't) include other burial sites and adding ship burials would be inappropriate. I would suggest renaming Ship burial customs in Germanic paganism to {{Ship burial customs in Germanic paganism}}. --Trialpears (talk) 15:15, 23 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I meant rename to {{Ship burial in Germanic paganism}} as a rename to the current name doesn't make sense. --Trialpears (talk) 19:30, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Germanic mythology with Template:Germanic paganism.
Separate template (created 26 June 2019) could as well merge with Template:Germanic paganism to keep "paganism" and "mythology" collected, as seen in Template:Anglo-Saxon paganism and Template:Norse paganism topics? PPEMES (talk) 17:14, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Mythology (stories and motifs) is a separate topic from paganism (religious practices). Germanic mythology has for exemple been used in Christian contexts, such as the Sigurd portals in medieval churches. Ffranc (talk) 17:51, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The idea is to regard the religion more as a whole, as seen in the attached examples. PPEMES (talk) 11:10, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support per PPEMES's reasoning. While I take Ffranc's point, Christianity has borrowed all sorts of things from all over Europe and the Near East, even various gods and goddesses (various "saints", mostly decanonized in recent years). — AReaderOutThataway ^t/_c 16:28, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
