Simpler list

Would anyone object if I simplified the list/table of current contentious topics? The way it's currently set up, listing all the subst templates, it has numerous duplications. I think it'd be more readable if each contentious topic was only listed once. —Ganesha811 (talk) 16:57, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reading over that, I don't see a strong case for keeping the list as a template on this page. A simple prose list might work better - it won't automatically update, but then contentious topics are not changed that frequently anyway. The template can always be linked. —Ganesha811 (talk) 14:05, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
