[edit] This template is biased

Wow, I have to say I find this really biased. Why Australia and not Afghanistan, Albania, Argentina or Armenia? Why United States and not Uganda, Venezuela or Vietnam?

Either list them all, or admit that this template is useless, and just insert "See also" links to List of education articles by country as necessary. pfctdayelise (translate?) 14:52, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

So go ahead, make the changes and nominate it for deletion. Rfrisbietalk 15:03, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] POV

As mentioned above, this template is POV as it only mentions some countries with articles and even Israel, whose link is a category, not an article while disregarding others that do have articles. I nominated it for POV cause the actual amount with articles is so long, I can't add them all myself. It's not like its even using the top ?? biggest ones - Turkey is much bigger than Israel in population, and has an article but isn't listed. Even if it was counting the biggest few, it would still be POV, just it would have obvious logic as to why those particular ones were chosen. (And I don't have a problem with Israel, its just an easy target to point out the problems with this template) - Рэдхот 12:30, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Why not use templates from Category:Continental navigation templates (i.e. {{Europe topic}}, {{Africa topic}} and {{South America topic}})? Rather than focusing on accommodating only "Education in..." articles that exists, wouldn't it be sensible to turn non-existent "Education in..." articles into redirects of categories (Education in Azerbaijan to Category:Education in Azerbaijan, for example) and letting other people create the articles later? - Two hundred percent 08:55, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
