New template {{Healthcare}} seems rather promotional (naming specific companies while excluding others), and might bear watching. Adding a promotional link to this template would have the effect of quietly spamming one's company name into many healthcare articles (currently 12) without any indication appearing on history pages to raise suspicion. --CliffC04:40, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-10-24T04:40:00.000Z","author":"CliffC","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-CliffC-2007-10-24T04:40:00.000Z-Spam_magnet_-_please_add_this_template_to_your_watchlists","replies":["c-Mineral\u00e8-2007-10-24T23:31:00.000Z-CliffC-2007-10-24T04:40:00.000Z"]}}-->

I do not believe this template explains Healthcare facts, this template explains healthcare policy options. Therefore it is more appropriate as a page about Healthcare policy options. However I do think it is a good idea to make a template that includes Healthcare in the United States along with policy options, but politics adn policy options should be clearly labelled.

That sounds like a good idea provided it's developed by consensus and review the same way an article is. The problem I have with some templates, this one for example, is that they are developed unilaterally by one person and appear suddenly in many pages without any editor review. --CliffC14:57, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-10-24T14:57:00.000Z","author":"CliffC","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-CliffC-2007-10-24T14:57:00.000Z-Mrdthree-2007-10-24T09:52:00.000Z","replies":["c-Mineral\u00e8-2007-10-24T23:33:00.000Z-CliffC-2007-10-24T14:57:00.000Z"]}}-->

My main problem with this template is this -- if it's U.S. only, it probably shouldn't include non-U.S. topics like NHS, and it probably should not be placed on pages that are clearly more global in focus, such as Universal health care. I've worked on several of the health care pages, and there's always a dialogue about when it's appropriate or necessary for a page to have a global focus, and when a strictly U.S. focus is acceptable.
I also agree that including company names is problematic. Wikipedia is not a directory. Where does one draw the line on what types of companies to include in such a list?
Finally, what's with the irrelevant text on the left side of the template page?

Greetings. I created the template because I thought the various articles where not tied up together correctly, I have addressed the questions put forth earlier about the template. The companies and the NHS have been removed and will move the template name to show the us centric thing.

This template, per the title, is about Healthcare in the United States, but it seems to be about only two major aspects of US health care: Publicly provided healthcare, and one particular form of private (or employer-paid via reduction in wages) healthcare, Insurance-premium-collected-then-insurance-paid-for healthcare -- plus a bit on particular Federal law related to state regulation of healthcare. A glaring omission would appear to be the kind of healthcare that many of us have, and all of our historical predecessors had a century or two ago: I want health care, I pay for healthcare, I get healthcare — which is analogous to the major form of food provision in the US: I want food, I pay for food, I get food. Some might call this market-provided healthcare.
Moreover, this is and was the major historical way healthcare was provided for in the US, certainly a vast majority prior to approximately the first third or so of the 20th century had this sort of healthcare, and only since the 1970s or 1980s has market-provided healthcare become a more minority, but not non-existent, form of healthcare.
Therefore, this template suffers from a non-neutral-point-of-view. I think it can be fixed, but many other types of healthcare would need to be added to the template, or the template name changed, or something else. Ideas are welcome. Cheers.

I think for you to argue the template was non-neutral due to an omission you would need an article that exists and you think belongs but is not included. Your complaint sounds to be more of a general one on Wikipedia's recentism/systemic bias, not a non-neutral template.

I think it is a bit silly to elevate city actions to the level of health care reform in the US. I've never read a serious source that considers municipal initatives as real reform. I'm under the impression real/encyclopedic reform only comes from federal or state action. States, for example, have influence in how their Medicaid programs are run.

The fact remains that it has been for the past four years the pending health care proposal with the most cost savings. I am reverting.

Please stop adding unverified information. Whose consensus is it that this proposed act is the lead proposal? Furthermore, the act doesn't belong in that section in my opinion.

It is just another reason that the Act is notable, along with the fact that it has the most popular support,[2] and the most co-sponsors in Congress.

Pending reform legislation has been in this template for a long time and the United States National Health Care Act is the pending legislation which saves both the most lives[3][4] and the most money,[5][6][7] and enjoys the most popular and congressional support.[8][9] What reasons are there not to revert?

Pending legislation is off topic and it looks like a cherry picked undue example to put in the template, as it only contains health care reform laws. Furthermore, your rationale to include appears to be nothing more than a soapbox, in my opinion. Two people have found it to be inappropriate. Please self-revert your most recent edit.[10] (Nevermind, I did.) Also, WP:V is a core policy; where is the consensus in reliable sources that this is the lead proposal?

Reforms and pending reforms have been a part of this template for a long time. For what reason do you say they are off topic? Do you intend to address any of the six sources establishing notability?

Chzz served as the third opinion. WP:EAR didn't care much did it? And your interpretation is bogus. That proposed reform has no demonstrated relevance to health care in the United States. Therefore it is out of scope, in my opinion.

By "obviously inappropriate", I meant, because it just isn't a law, like the others. For me, it is nothing to do with the sources stated. I hope that Dualus will respect Wikipedia "BRD" principles when their block expires; two people say "no" and one says "yes" - as long as you respect that, and don't keep trying to force the edit through, that's fine. If you still disagree with our opinions, then other avenues are available of course.
