Currently, Template:Confirm, which is used for articles with their name/nickname/topic unconfirmed by a source, utilizes the following quote and appearance:

Original:

Got A Bad feeling

I have a bad feeling about this…

This article's name or topic requires confirmation from the listed source(s).

After confirmation is complete, please place a note on the article's talk page and remove this message.

However, I feel as though the quote and image used are, contextually, unfitting for the template. My proposal is that it be altered to utilize a more contextually fitting quote and image.

Proposal 1 (Original)

MunbrinSoloName-Solo

What's your name, son?

This article's name or topic requires confirmation from the listed source(s).

After confirmation is complete, please place a note on the article's talk page and remove this message.

Proposal 1 (New image)

DrawdName

What's your name, son?

This article's name or topic requires confirmation from the listed source(s).

After confirmation is complete, please place a note on the article's talk page and remove this message.

However, if anyone believes there is a more fitting quote and image that could be used, feel free to let me know and I can add it as a proposal.

Edit: A new proposal has been made by Ecks, and would appear as follows. I have also changed and brightened the image for my own proposal above.

Proposal 2

Hantrooper

Who is this? What's your operating number?

This article's name or topic requires confirmation from the listed source(s).

After confirmation is complete, please place a note on the article's talk page and remove this message.

Keep as is

The current quote is more memorable (being from a saga film) and the accompanying image is clearer (the proposed one is kind of dark even when brightened). "Who is this? What's your operating number?" or another saga quote would be a better fit imo. 1358 (Talk) 20:26, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

  14. While I see Ecks' point, I think it'd be nice to diversify and use some stuff from the new Canon era, which I've not noticed yet in maintenance templates. Braha'tok enthusiast Hello there 22:57, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
