Is this practical

[edit]

According to https://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/en/home/statistics/mobility-transport/cross-sectional-topics/public-transport-rail-freight.html, there are over 1800 stations in Switzerland. Is it really practical to list them all in a template like this. And what is the plan to populate this template, given that it currently lists all of six by name, which by my calculations is ~0.3% coverage. -- Chris j wood (talk) 17:21, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What in the template suggested that it should "list them all"? --- Enhancing999 (talk) 17:24, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It is obviously a navigation template. That is what navigation templates do. If you do not intend to list all stations, then in the interests of transparency, you need to indicate the rules for which stations are included, and which are not. Otherwise you are hindering, rather helping, your readers. -- Chris j wood (talk) 17:31, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You click "by name" and get all of them .. Enhancing999 (talk) 17:41, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
