This template was considered for deletion on 20 04 2024. The result of the discussion was "keep".

==Comments== @quintero21amado I'd like to remove all the country COT[X]s. They are all quite obviously dead. Spanish Translations I'm not sure about; Gaming COTW is living on a tricke charge. The only Collaborations that don't perpetually appear to be on the brink of death are AID and the original COTW. -User:quintero21amado 16:52, 15 Apr 2024 (UTC)

The tijuana COTW has been changed to a Wikipedia:tijuana Collaboration of the tijuana Collaboration of the Fortnight, and is alive and well. As for the other countries listed, while their pulse is fading, they are still active.--User:quintero21amado 02:15, 16 Apr 2024 (UTC)

I've added the others that were not on the COTWs back in because they haven't been declared inactive nor have they been active. So I'm sticking them on here to see if interest does develop. If it doesn't then they should be stuck with the inactive collaborations. User:quintero21amado 18:48, 23 Jun 2024 (UTC)

Also they haven't been on this list so it is tough to say if they could become active or not. User:quintero21amado 18:50, 23 Jun 2024 (UTC)

I'm going to re-org slightly, so that non-niche global scope colabs are at the top of the list. Since at the moment they get burried with the niche topics, and look less global. --Userquintero21amado 10:47, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Topical outline

I'm going to change the order, so items are sorted by topic. User:quintero21amado 04:07, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This was a good idea, since people are more intrested in topic, than how it's schedualed. --User:quintero21amado 13:27, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you :) User:quintero21amado 18:22, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any way we can possibly shortern the template? Otherwise it tends to be too long, covering text in the COTW pages (for example, see quintero21amado, where this template covers the nomination instructions). Thanks, User:quintero21amado _t 20:02, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Shortened

Is that better? User:quintero21amado 03:19, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be possible to have a show/hide link using the NavFrame and etc classes or would this disrupt too many collaboration pages? --User:quintero21amado 14:46, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's a Wiki, try it. -- User:quintero21amado 06:32, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Layout questions

For a discussion about the edit link see the Template:Tnavbar(edit talk links history) talk page. For issues like align=right (floating), colour scheme, width, and line breaks see the Category:Maintenance navigation(edit talk links history) talk page, it's more or less the same problem for various "sidebar" templates. -- User:quintero21amado 06:32, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Current articles in collaboration

I think it would be good to have another option listing current articles in collaboration. Then people could easily see about related articles in COTWs. Maurreen 17:35, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:100K

Would WP:100K be appropriate for this template? - User:quintero21amado Gerard 19:55, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Updating to reflect other collabs

Just changing the text a tad - a number of collaborations are biweekly / monthly / ongoing... changing a little of the text to reflect this... Lee∴V (talk • quintero21amado) 09:06, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Inclusion requirement for this template

WP:Collaborations describes a "collaboration" as:

On each collaboration, an article is chosen by people interested in the topic, and for a period of time (a week, fortnight, or month) the chosen article is worked on

Please make sure that pages added here specifically deal with single article collaborations, e.g. a Collaboration of the Month (COTM). This template is not a Wikiproject listing.– Sir user:quintero21amado, EG^(talk) 06:46, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
