Actually, most of the templates can get data automagically from Wikidata. It will take any Wikipedia around one hour to have it deployed: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:OhWTFs

Instead of creating one module and one template for every thing, you can use the same module for everything and create few templates handling most of the topics.

At Basque Wikipdian (copying the catalan one) we have most of the articles covered with:

• Biography
• Geographic features
• Place
• Artwork
• Building
• Event

There are more complex ones for elections, but most of the things can be covered with just one module and 6-8 templates.

Unfortunately, a lot of old projects got very old templates that need to be replaced carefully with the approval of a community, often a conservative one. This project aims to reduce a lot of this.
