I would suggest this template and {{Server}} can be combined. --Pcj 19:04, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

However the banner does not fit all article designs. Could possibly make the banner display optional. --GRYPHONtc 19:13, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
{{Server}} is still needed for server sub articles where the additional categories are not appropriate. --GRYPHONtc 19:27, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
The initial reason for the creation of this template is to merge {{Server_US}} and {{Server_EU}} usage. --GRYPHONtc 19:30, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
Could make {{Realm}} merged into {{Server}} and if the additional parameters are not provided, it just won't add those categories. And the banner parameter if you don't want the banner for whatever reason (which I naturally assumed was a policy b/c of the policy of putting the {{Guild}} banner on guild pages; it's the same idea anyway). --Pcj 19:34, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
I strongly agree with those that say the templates can be merged. I am also confident that a re-write of the template code can be reached that will either 1) make editing of the affected pages unnecessary or 2) present enough "optional" parameters that a bot could revise the affected pages easily. If no-one beats me to it, I'll produce a merged concept soon. User:JIM the Inventor/Sig1 00:32, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Personally, I cringe whenever the term "server" is used rather than "realm." A realm is not hosted by single server! Furthermore, "server" is not an official term used by Blizzard (at least not often). --Tyrsenus t c 01:00, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
