message: If no-one objects, I may spin 'digital' subjects off into a new template; that subject area could then have a more comprehensive template without overloading this one. I may do the same with 'analogue' subjects and leave this template as as a general one for both areas. But I'll see. Comments? Baffle gab1978 (talk) 07:48, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

replies: text:  The 'digital' mock-up is at User:Baffle gab1978/Sandbox, I'll create the analogue one later this week. The current template is there for reference. Thanks Baffle gab1978 (talk) 20:40, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  So far I think the Digital Photography mockup is a good start but has too much overlap with the existing Photography navbox.  If the overlap was removed, the remainder would be mainly about photo manipulation.  Rather than trying to split film and digital photography from the Photography navbox, I'd suggest keeping the Photography navbox and adding new specialized navboxes based on aspects of the discussion so far: "digital cameras" and "photo manipulation".

text: Due to RL matters, I haven't had time or inclination to edit the trial template - I guess the idea of expanding the original is good, but I was considering the possibility of it becoming messy, with too many sections. I'll leave it alone for the present. Thanks for your input. Baffle gab1978 (talk) 11:12, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Bokeh should be in "Technical terms" instead of "Techniques". It is not a technique, it is a way of describing the manner in which a lens defocuses.

thread_title: Categorisation of "bokeh"

message: I feel that using this template on a page can make it dominate a small page. I have felt inhibited in using it, where I would not have hesitated if its default state had been "collapse". (Have I got the terminology right?) For example, Royal Photographic Society is about "Photography" (of course!), but the full content of the template would probably rarely be of interest to the typical reader of that page. Digital Negative has 3 templates, but fortunately 2 are normally collapsed. Yet there is no good reason why this one should be expanded and the other 2 collapsed. Perhaps there is a good reason why it is how it is; or perhaps I'm the only one who cares either way. Views? Barry Pearson 16:26, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

replies: text: I was initially inclined to consider fire as a photography subject, not a genre. However, the Fire photography article seems to have sufficient sources and links to organizations to suggest that it is, in fact, a genre. If Cloudscape has a place on the list, then so should fire.

message: Add the topic of Panography to the section of Photographic techniques within the template. Panography is a type of photographic style specifically distinct from Panoramic photography.
