I question the validity of this article series template. The scope of it is purely
Scandinavistic, buth without any limitations. The template is also bound to overlap with anything concerning any of the three Scandinavian countries, and moreover, it does not take in consideration the idea of the
846:
The template already has a few sections that are not just about
Scandinavia, which in the strictest sense is only Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Scandinavia is sometimes loosely used to refer to nordic countries, however renaming to Nordic countries would make the template more accurate.
781:
This template currently sticks out like a sore thumb on transcluded articles due to the brown background colour. A couple of editors have tried inverting the colour scheme to alleviate this only to be summarily reverted. Does this template really need to be dark brown? Why?
918:
do you have a source supporting that this is not the most common definition in
English usage? I see two options: (1) Other countries should be indicated as unusual part of the English definition. (2) The template should be turned into an infobox about Nordic countries. See

into the series? No doubt about it's
Scandinavian relations, but the template seems more history-related to me. Note: It doesn't even link to the four countries, just the

before trying to decide what should be in a template about
Scandinavia. In English, Scandinavia is usually defined much wider than in e.g. Swedish.

It shouldn't. The template needs cleanup as it has spread out to include areas that are not properly part of
Scandinavia.--

I disagree. I think it would be better to completely remove Finland from the template.--
