Template:Outline footer → Template:Outlines – Per template's current title (and "footer" not necessary) --Relisted. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 08:56, 9 June 2014 (UTC)Sardanaphalus (talk) 00:26, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Survey

Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.

Oppose I prefer to the current title. It indicates what the function of this template is. (ie. it isn't a top banner, like {{project}} is) I could see someone in the future creating a topbanner for such pages, using the proposed name. And almost nothing transcludes that redirect at "outlines". -- 65.94.171.126 (talk) 05:11, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Non standard footer

Footers normally to a grouped collection of Wikipedia articles. Particularly when that group would list each other in the 'See also' section. This however points to several locations on the same portal page. What is the advantage over just using {{portalbar|Contents/Outlines}}
