RfC: Move  Economic warfare from grand strategy to weapons: 

Bar would be better than sidebox: Hi, I just saw this for the very first time with its new appearance on War film. I agree the topic is "Related" but do not think that a sizeable box right at the top of (every) article, especially perhaps where the topic is only "related" to the matter of the box, is a good idea. For a start, many articles I edit have 2, 3 or more navigation sets (I choose a neutral word). These membership sets would (and once did) take up excessive screen space ("real estate" in user interface design jargon), all the more problematic when half our readers already view Wikipedia on small screens (smartphones upwards). A solution is to use horizontal navigation boxes placed at the ends of articles, rather than vertical ones placed near the top on the right. Horizontal navboxes can (and best should) be made to collapse to a simple one-line bar with a title, so they are "quiet" (barely intrusive) but readily available. An example is the {{Mathematical art}} navbox - see Mathematics and art for how it works when there is a second navbox also present. I think you'll agree that it's a tried and tested solution, and one that offers plenty of room for the designer. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:25, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Cavalry article: Could the "War" template be repositioned at the bottom of the Cavalry article? This way it would continue to serve a useful purpose without breaking up and distorting what is already a lengthy article. As a random example of better practice the National Gendarmerie article places its template at the foot of the main text, thereby presenting a tidy and well organised appearance without large gaps. Thanks.(Buistr (talk) 00:18, 9 May 2016 (UTC)).

Sorry. I noticed Blitzkrieg in mentioned under the operational category, however that tactic is a more specific strategy that should fall under the Shock and awe doctrine. I guess you could say I feel this should be added. 50.64.119.38 (talk) 05:00, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

Music is a "weapon"?: If you look under "Weapons" heading in this infobox template, Music is listed...

So, with regard to reduction...?: I have heard that you guys are trying to reduce the size of the template. Are you guys making progress? I would be happy to help a bit.
I primarily work in the Cantonese wikipedia and have been thinking about translating certain military-related templates. However, this template is so enormous that it feels a bit intimidating, i.e., either (1) I do the extraordinarily grueling task of making stub articles on Cantonese wiki, for all the links in this template, or (2) I get a sidebar template with a sea of red links.
Personally, I would be happy to start sub-sidebar/navbox templates about military tactics and military strategy (the military topics that interest me the most) - for both Cantonese and English versions of Wikipedia. Should I go ahead and make:

Template:Military tactics for the Cantonese wiki
Template:Military tactics for the English wiki
Template:Military strategy for the Cantonese wiki
Template:Military strategy for the English wiki
I will start working as soon as I get the greenlight.
Edited: I am also willing to create the remaining English subnavbox templates for Template:War, e.g., Template:Battlespace, Template:Weapons, etc.
