Template:NewsBank text → Template:NewsBank – Should be simpler and concise to type, IMO. (Well, it's newly created, so there.) George Ho (talk) 10:08, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

- I do agree with these arguments.
- However, the reason I named it with "text" at the end is because (as alluded to in the first paragraph of the description) this template only works for the articles available as transcribed text, and a separate template (perhaps "NewsBank image") could be created for the scanned page images, which have a different URL structure. The alternative approaches I can think of would be to either have one template do both (which would make implementing and using it more complicated) or to have asymmetric naming for the two templates.
