Per my post at WP:VPPR, and on Category talk:Wikipedia pages about contentious topics: With nearly ten-thousand articles in this category, I wonder if perhaps we can divide out some subcategories for specific large groups of contentious topics, such as those falling under American politics or COVID-19 editing restrictions
. Right now this massive category has precisely one subcategory, Category:Pseudoscience articles under contentious topics procedure. My intent is to create additional subcategories for a dozen or so major areas of contentious topics, and subcategorize the contents accordingly. It has been suggested to me that the best way to do this would be to modify this template so that specific template calls such as ((Ds/talk notice|ipa)) (which produces the line, "The contentious topics procedure applies to this page. This page is related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, which has been designated as a contentious topic") would also subcategorize the page in question into a Category:Wikipedia pages about contentious topics relating to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, with comparable subcategories created for other well-populated groups of contentious topics.

(Posted at Template_talk:Contentious_topics/talk_notice#When_an_article_deals_with_multiple_contentious_topics, since this template says it's deprecated and to use that one, and in any case the issue applies to either.) -sche (talk) 02:38, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
Template:Ds/talk notice clearly uses British English, yet is primarily used on articles related to America. Looks like an ENGVAR violation to me. IPs are people too 🇺🇸🦅 06:03, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
