We can't have a separate entry in this template for every product / resource / service that was ever taxed.

Updated the international section for the EU CCCTB (also a large wiki article). Finally, added a section on tax researchers, for which there are also good wiki articles, split into academic and tax advocacy groups. Finally, put the distribution section as a sub-section under economics, which I think makes more sense. <a href="/wiki/User:Britishfinance" title="User:Britishfinance">Britishfinance</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Britishfinance" title="User talk:Britishfinance">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Taxation#c-Britishfinance-2018-09-22T11:03:00.000Z-Update_to_template" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">11:03, 22 September 2018 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Britishfinance-2018-09-22T11:03:00.000Z-Update_to_template"><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-Britishfinance-2018-09-22T11:03:00.000Z-Update_to_template"></span> </p>    </div><noscript><img src="https://login.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralAutoLogin/start?type=1x1&useformat=desktop" alt="" width="1" height="1" style="border: none; position: absolute;"></noscript> <div class="printfooter" data-nosnippet="">Retrieved from "<a dir="ltr" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template_talk:Taxation&oldid=1259570673">https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template_talk:Taxation&oldid=1259570673</a>"</div></div> <div id="catlinks" class="catlinks" data-mw="interface"><div id="mw-normal-catlinks" class="mw-normal-catlinks"><a href="/wiki/Help:Category" title="Help:Category">Categories</a>: <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Category:Template-Class_Economics_articles" title="Category:Template-Class Economics articles">Template-Class Economics articles</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Category:NA-importance_Economics_articles" title="Category:NA-importance Economics articles">NA-importance Economics articles</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Category:WikiProject_Economics_articles" title="Category:WikiProject Economics articles">WikiProject Economics articles</a></li></ul></div></div> </div> </main> </div> <div class="mw-footer-container"> <footer id="footer" class="mw-footer" > <ul id="footer-info"> <li id="footer-info-lastmod"> This page was last edited on 25 November 2024, at 21:48<span class="anonymous-show"> (UTC)</span>.</li> <li id="footer-info-copyright">Text is available under the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_the_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_4.0_International_License" title="Wikipedia:Text of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License">Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License</a>; additional terms may apply.
