Talk:Ursula Burns

message: I removed the American Express template (& category) because her association with that company is fairly slight -- as contrasted with her very major association with Xerox. She serves on quite a few boards and could hypothetically have templates and/or categories for each -- which really would not make good sense. Cgingold (talk) 10:03, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That may be, but I think that's an issue for Template talk:American Express.  It is a navigation template, after all, the point of which is to navigate among the listed articles.  If a user clicks on Ursula Burns from another article that contains that template, they will be at a dead end.  Powers T 00:06, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That is an interesting and perplexing point -- one which I've never previously had reason to think about. I don't recall ever coming across another nav template which listed corporate board members, and honestly, I'm not sure what I think of it. Have you ever seen one? As to this particular case, I think I would feel less concerned if the template could be collapsed so as not to give undue prominence to her connection with A/E -- especially in the absence of a similar template for Xerox. (I tried but was unable to collapse it.) Cgingold (talk) 12:07, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not familiar enough with corporate governance to judge whether board members are a useful navigation criterion, I'm afraid.  What I can judge is that not having it here while her name remains on the template is a hinderance to that navigation.  Powers T 12:38, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
