templates was that I thought editors wouldn't appreciate a very long thin template. However, if you don't see a problem with it, we can just use the first one you have done, though it might be best to rephrase the top section to "Acts of the
Scottish Parliament to 1707" and "Acts of the Irish Parliament to 1800" - this is less ambiguous and fits with the English ones above.
461:
Unfortunately, I don't think the separate template idea would work if we removed the links between the separate areas (when I find items to add to the UK SI list I sometimes find one for the NI list as well, so I would like a quick link between them). The reason I was splitting them into separate
416:
They're grand, although if we're going to have separate templates for each region of the UK, we might consider just linking to the legislation that is relevant for the region: the
Northern Ireland template would not need links to Scottish, pre-union English statutes or pre-1800 acts of the UK
495:
The only reason I went with "Acts of the pre-Union
Parliament" is that someone who didn't know when the respective Acts of Union were passed might think that there were acts of the Irish and Scottish Parliaments after 1800 and 1707 respectively. It does kind of give that impression. --
706:
I get the change in ordering, but now there's an inconsistency - it starts with the most recent set at the top (UK acts) then gets progressively older (Great
Britain, England, etc.) so the groups are now listed the opposite way to the years within them.
505:
Unfortunately, by the same measure, someone may have the same thoughts about the
English Parliament, which also ceased to exist because of the Act of Union. Whichever way you want to phrase it, the English, Scottish and Irish links should be consistent.
762:
685:
Perhaps… maybe… if the links were in chronological order, it would be easier to read? There's no reason to put the latest years at the top… this is a historical template not a pop culture reference. —

Parliament list pages. I would appreciate comments, especially those about whether I have got the balance right between readability and functionality.
648:
in what sense are CofE Measures "British legislation"? - I daresay you're right, they have the force of law, or somesuch; but it would be nice to have an article
362:
This is a very intrusive template. It almost takes up half my screen! Does it really have to list every decade for acts and every year for statutory instruments?
381:
The problem is, quite obviously, that 400px is way too wide for a sidebox on a 800x600 screen. Half that would be much more reasonable, even on 1024x600.
404:
345:
757:

I will see what I can do to improve the template. The problem lies with trying to find the correct balance between readability and functionality.
