Not useful as a navigation box. Refers to the team of Australia and New Zealand who competed together in the 1908 and 1912 Olympics (only). Instead, I have made {{AUS-Summer-Olympics}} and {{NZL-Summer-Olympics}} both include Australasia at the 1908 Summer Olympics and Australasia at the 1912 Summer Olympics, and added both AUS and NZL navigation boxes to those two pages respectively. Therefore, the ANZ navigation box is no longer needed. Andrwsc 23:17, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

While this is a valiant attempt to create a generic version of the templates found in Category:Olympics by country templates (such as {{ARG-Summer-Olympics}}), it is not useful because it creates links for all years, and few nations attended all Summer Olympics. The result would be redlinks for non-sensical articles (e.g. USSR at the 2004 Summer Olympics). The current approach to create a customized navigation box for each nation at the summer Olympics is perhaps not as elegant, but avoids all these problems. Andrwsc 23:06, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- delete customised will be better than one fits all in the long run. Time is on our side so lets do it right first time. David D. (Talk) 15:19, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- delete the templates in use now are fine. Perakhantu 17:05, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Sports "fancruft" from 2004 Olympics. No similar template was used for other countries, or other years. All the information can be found on Canada at the 2004 Summer Olympics. Not an intuitive way to navigate from one athlete bio to the next. Also need to delete the previous name for this template (now a redirect page) at {{Cantop8}} Andrwsc 22:52, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- delete no precedent and not useful for the major countries at the Olympics. David D. (Talk) 15:20, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- delete no need when a page is already devoted to Canadian medalists. Perakhantu 17:01, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

The result of the debate was roger that', merge it is. // Pilotguy (Have your say) 04:03, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
Redundant and misleading (eg. Alberta provincial highway 1A is designated as a primary highway and not a secondary one), Template:Alberta Provincial Highways conveys much of the needed information. Also, one of Template:BCHighways and Template:BC Expressways should be deleted, as well as one of Template:MBHighways and Template:MB Expressways by the same token. kelvSYC 06:38, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- Keep or even better Merge with {{Alberta Provincial Highways}}, i.e. have the expressways stand out in the summary highway navbox; it isn't a bad ideea to have a navbox of expressways (as they are probably the ones looked up most often), and the summary navbox only has a long, nondescript collection of numbers. Same for all provinces in any case (keep consistency). --Qyd 11:30, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
