The result of the debate was TEMPLATE MOVED per discussion below. The transclusions are fewer than 100; they could be fixed by dilligent hand, or by a bot request. -GTBacchus^(talk) 07:42, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Template:Moresources → Template:Onesource — WP:CTT lists {{moresources}} and {{more sources}} right next to each other. They have essentially identical names but are different templates: one requests more sources, and the other warns that the article only uses one source. I'm already in the process of updating the small list of transclusions of {{moresources}} (the "one source" template) to the redirect I just made to it, {{onesource}}, taking care to switch to {{more sources}} instead if the context suits it. I'd also bet that most of the people using {{moresources}} thought they were using {{more sources}}. See how confusing this is? {{moresources}} should also probably redirect to {{more sources}}. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 15:59, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

• Support. I always thought these names were confusing, but both templates serve a unique purpose, so renaming is appropriate. -- Satori Son 17:02, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Add any additional comments:

• comment perhaps there is a better name, like template:fewsources instead of onesource... (like few incoming links) 132.205.93.32 23:05, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

We can make any number of redirects to whichever name we choose, but for now the main issue is moving it to a template that isn't so confusing alongside {{more sources}}. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 23:07, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

And I'm not opposed to a different name but "fewsources" still sounds ambiguous and isn't consistent with the wording of the template, which states that the article only uses one source. Perhaps that would be better as a redirect to another template. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 13:20, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
