This template is no longer floating on the right side of the page like it used to: e.g. Rule utilitarianism. It is thus breaking the many pages it appears on.

- Still looks broken to me. I'm using Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.20.

- I've decided just to flatten the template out and present it in one column. Should be fixed now. Can you check?

- It looks fine now, it's floating correctly to the right. I should have explained more clearly that the problem was that the box was floating in the middle of the page. I've had a good look at the edit history and the edit which caused it to happen was this one: [1].

I'm not sure why animal welfare is linked to from this template. There is a kind of link, as can be seen in the quote from Robert Nozick in the section Animal welfare#animal welfarism. But putting animal welfare in the template seems like giving the connection undue weight.

- I am also dubious about the inclusion of Abolitionism (bioethics). This is an interesting concept that can be argued from a utilitarian point of view, but I don't think it is really part of utilitarianism. If no one replies soon, I will remove the links to both articles from the template.

- Both Animal welfare and Abolitionism (bioethics) have now been removed.
