Articles including ] are being placed in {{cl|Pages using infobox Switzerland municipality with manual population}} even though they are getting data from <s>Wikidata</s> a template, {{tl|Swiss populations NC}}, and its allied templates.

: The category is passed whenever {{para|population}}/{{para|populationof}} is used. If you omit the parameter set then it autofills it from the same template. There's no way the infobox can tell whether its input comes from a template. ] ] 03:19, 15 April 2024 (UTC) |

Greetings and felicitations. Would someone please be so kind as to add a plural option for the <tt>postal_code</tt> field? I checked both the documentation and the talk page archives and can't find one, nor does making the field plural ("postal_codes") currently work. (Please be so kind as to {{Tlx|ping}} me when you respond.) —05:30, 20 August 2020 (UTC) |

This template currently produces the text {{!xt|Municipality of Switzerland}} under the subject name in the resulting infobox. That is not how we express such a term in English. It should read {{xt|Swiss municipality}} or maybe {{xt|Municipality in Switzerland}}. "Municipality of Switzerland" is how you would refer to a municipality named Switzerland. ] <sup>]</sup> 18:25, 5 November 2020 (UTC) |

:] '''Done'''<!-- Template:ETp -->. This might be controversial. The article is called "Municipalities of Switzerland", but it seems like more of a formal term. In English, we definitely say "X is a city/town/municipality/county in Y". If the in/of distinction is controversial, it would probably be best to simply write "Municipality", since the country name appears in the first line of data (after the images and maps). |

Greetings and felicitations. Would please make the "iso-code-region" visible, as it is in most other country and first level subdivision infoboxes?

::Thanks, Jonesey. Yes, the plural makes complete sense in the article title. But the singular here jumped out at me as odd; I'm guessing it was formulated by a non-native speaker. And I agree that simply "Municipality" would work as well. Just curious: Why did you prefer the "in" solution to "Swiss municipality"? ] <sup>]</sup> 23:22, 5 November 2020 (UTC) |

:::After doing a bit of poking around and reading the documentation (linked above), I prefer no nationality at all (i.e. just "Municipality"). I'm happy to give others a chance to have their say before changing it, though. – ] (]) 23:30, 5 November 2020 (UTC) |

I proposed merge or replacement for {{tl|Infobox Switzerland municipality}} with {{tl|Infobox settlement}}. Unlike other infoboxes of cities, villages, and municipalities, have their own native names in other languages for {{tl|Infobox settlement}}. ] (]) 06:35, 29 September 2024 (UTC) |

:This template is already a wrapper for Infobox settlement. It has some custom features that probably would not be welcome in infobox settlement. Are you proposing that those features be eliminated? Please make a specific proposal, or create a demonstration page that shows infobox settlement being used for a settlement that currently uses this template's custom features. – ] (]) 00:14, 30 September 2024 (UTC) |

Can you add "imagepath_flag"? Every municipality has a flag alongside with a coat of arm just like the cantons. ] (]) 01:30, 19 April 2021 (UTC) ] (]) 01:30, 19 April 2021 (UTC) |
