Template:Calendar2 is just a wrapper for it.
The following seem to exist, for use in the calendar:

Should the "Events" section be deleted, now that information is stored in Template:Calendar? Ojw 17:25, 15 September 2006 (BST) Should it also be deleted because it is now past, rather than future? Rw 17:30, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah I've just blown away that old 'Events' section. Now all events will need to be listed in 'Template:Calendar'. If someone wanted to describe an event in more detail, I guess they could create a #section on this page again, but it seems to be more common to just create new wiki pages for event details, or sections on project city pages. -- Harry Wood 13:44, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
rename
how about renaming this, both on the article header and sidebar as 'Planned events' or somesuch, as 'Current events' seems a little odd? just a matter of moving a page on here and editing a mediawiki special message... Morwen 19:53, 14 May 2007 (BST)
- I agree. 'Current' seems to suggest that they are all upcoming in the next week or something, although it's not really a huge problem.
- But then 'Planned Events' might imply that they are all only in the planning stage.
- I'd suggest 'Upcoming Events'
- If we are looking at modifying the sidebar (see MediaWiki talk:Sidebar) then we could think about some of the other naming too. e.g. see OpenStreetMap talk:Community Portal -- Harry Wood 11:08, 15 May 2007 (BST)
