It didn't really belong in any of the boxes; but it wasn't really important enough to get its own box. So, on the premise that the bottom box was a catch-all, I put it there. Comments? <a href="/wiki/User:Doops" title="User:Doops">Doops</a> 02:50, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC) </p><p>I have reverted it because I do not see any precendent for <a href="/wiki/User:Lord_Emsworth" title="User:Lord Emsworth">User:Lord Emsworth</a>'s changes. Look at <a href="/wiki/Politics_of_the_United_States" title="Politics of the United States">Politics of the United States</a>, <a href="/wiki/Politics_of_Germany" title="Politics of Germany">Politics of Germany</a>, <a href="/wiki/Politics_of_New_Zealand" title="Politics of New Zealand">Politics of New Zealand</a>, <a href="/wiki/Politics_of_the_Republic_of_Ireland" title="Politics of the Republic of Ireland">Politics of the Republic of Ireland</a> - all of those pages have the series box, so why should the <a href="/wiki/Politics_of_United_Kingdom" class="mw-redirect" title="Politics of United Kingdom">Politics of United Kingdom</a> series box be curtailed? In my opinion, the 'traditional' series box looks far more presentable and I see no valid reason why the introduction categories should mean the end of it. <a href="/wiki/User:Deus_Ex" title="User:Deus Ex">Deus Ex</a> 00:33, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC) </p> <dl><dd>If you are so particular, then I am sure you would not mind shifting all these series boxes back to the top of the page.

It definitely intrudes into the text: see the example of the first section <a href="/wiki/Lord_Chancellor" title="Lord Chancellor">Lord Chancellor</a>. To have the entire box at the bottom of the page, in the format I had proposed, appears to me to be a more reasonable solution.</dd></dl> <p>I don't follow. Why would the boxes look better at the bottom of the page? If the box is at the bottom the page is extended accomodate the table, creating a large white space to the left of the page (see <a href="/wiki/Departments_of_the_United_Kingdom_Government" class="mw-redirect" title="Departments of the United Kingdom Government">Departments of the United Kingdom Government</a>). I understand the problem with text being intruded, but that happens with any element like an image and it does not really impact on the readability of the text much. Maybe the box could made smaller to minimise the effect of the box intruding in the first section, I suggest removing some of the links in the box and making the border smaller like this: <a href="/wiki/User:Deus_Ex" title="User:Deus Ex">Deus Ex</a> 11:53, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC) </p> <table cellpadding="3" border="0" align="right"><tbody><tr><td> <table cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" style="float:right; font-size:10px; margin:3px; border:1px solid black;"> <tbody><tr> <td style="border-bottom:1px solid; background:#ffffff;"><div class="center"><span typeof="mw:Error mw:File"><a href="//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Upload?wpDestFile=UK_Royal_Arms_small.PNG" class="new" title="File:UK Royal Arms small.PNG"><span class="mw-file-element mw-broken-media" data-width="150">File:UK Royal Arms small.PNG</span></a></span><br/><small>This article is part of the series<br/><b><a href="/wiki/Politics_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Politics of the United Kingdom">Politics of the United Kingdom</a></b></small></div> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Parliament of the United Kingdom">Parliament</a><br/><a href="/wiki/British_House_of_Commons" class="mw-redirect" title="British House of Commons">House of Commons</a><br/><a href="/wiki/House_of_Lords" title="House of Lords">House of Lords</a><br/><a href="/wiki/British_monarchy" class="mw-redirect" title="British monarchy">Monarchy</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td style="border-top:1px solid;"><a href="/wiki/Prime_Minister_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Prime Minister of the United Kingdom">Prime Minister</a><br/><a href="/wiki/Cabinet_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Cabinet of the United Kingdom">Cabinet</a><br/><a href="/wiki/Departments_of_the_United_Kingdom_Government" class="mw-redirect" title="Departments of the United Kingdom Government">Government Departments</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td style="border-top:1px solid;"><a href="/wiki/Scottish_Parliament" title="Scottish Parliament">Scottish Parliament</a><br/> <a href="/wiki/Scottish_Executive" class="mw-redirect" title="Scottish Executive">Scottish Executive</a><br/><a href="/wiki/National_Assembly_for_Wales" class="mw-redirect" title="National Assembly for Wales">National Assembly for Wales</a><br/> <a href="/wiki/Welsh_Assembly_Government" class="mw-redirect" title="Welsh Assembly Government">Welsh Assembly Government</a><br/><a href="/wiki/Northern_Ireland_Assembly" title="Northern Ireland Assembly">Northern Ireland Assembly</a><br/> <a href="/wiki/Northern_Ireland_Executive" title="Northern Ireland Executive">Northern Ireland Executive</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td style="border-top:1px solid;"><a href="/wiki/Local_government_in_the_United_Kingdom" title="Local government in the United Kingdom">Local government</a><br/><a href="/wiki/Greater_London_Authority" title="Greater London Authority">Greater London Authority</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td style="border-top:1px solid;"><a href="/wiki/Elections_in_the_United_Kingdom" title="Elections in the United Kingdom">Elections</a><br/><a href="/wiki/List_of_political_parties_in_the_United_Kingdom" title="List of political parties in the United Kingdom">Political Parties</a><br/><a href="/wiki/Constitution_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Constitution of the United Kingdom">Constitution</a> </td></tr></tbody></table> </td></tr></tbody></table> <dl><dd>I think it works best as a vertical pane at the top of the pages, rather than as a tiny horizontal wedge at the bottom.</dd> <dd>I'm happy to edit the couple of dozen pages to move it up, if you want...</dd> <dd><a href="/wiki/User:Jdforrester" title="User:Jdforrester">James F.</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jdforrester" title="User talk:Jdforrester">(talk)</a> 13:38, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)</dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>We could also remove the Royal Arms, which I do not believe we are supposed to be able to use under such circumstances. -- <a href="/wiki/User:Lord_Emsworth" title="User:Lord Emsworth">Emsworth</a> 17:36, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>Well, it's in general about HMG and the associated institutions, and so the 'correct' one would be the Royal Arms for some (PC, amongst other things), and the Parliamentary Arms (or whatever they're called - do we have them around?) for others (such as Parliament itself, and all the Departments and so on.

No of course there are articles where both are necessary, but why not include all the UK data into the sub-national navbars (as they shrink down, we can put as much as we want in them) and so we have two-in-one. That way we de facto have the UK bar there as well as the English/Scottish etc. without double the clutter.

title="Wikipedia:TESTCASES">WP:TESTCASES</a>. There is a lot of changes here, and I actually think that changing some of the vertical list points into horizontal list points and mixing the two styles looks very bad. As such, I would be hesitant to make such a change without some discussion and a consensus. — <span class="nowrap">{{U|<a href="/wiki/User:Technical_13" title="User:Technical 13">Technical 13</a>}}</span> <sup>(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Technical_13" title="User talk:Technical 13">t</a> • <a href="/wiki/Special:EmailUser/Technical_13" title="Special:EmailUser/Technical 13">e</a> • <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Technical_13" title="Special:Contributions/Technical 13">c</a>)</sup> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Politics_of_the_United_Kingdom#c-Technical_13-2014-03-22T12:26:00.000Z-213.246.116.115-2014-03-21T16:01:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">12:26, 22 March 2014 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Technical_13-2014-03-22T12:26:00.000Z-213.246.116.115-2014-03-21T16:01:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Technical_13-2014-03-22T12:26:00.000Z-213.246.116.115-2014-03-21T16:01:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <dl><dd><ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-213.246.116.115-2014-03-23T09:40:00.000Z-Technical_13-2014-03-22T12:26:00.000Z"></span>Thanks for your attention.
