Template:Barbecue sauces (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Per template guidelines, "Templates should not be used to create lists of links to other articles when a category, list page, or 'See also' section list can perform the same function." This template would be better implemented by categories and lists. The current one appears to be a confusion between commercial brands and sauce styles...many not actually belonging to the list. We don't need a template to navigate commercial brands.

The result of the discussion was merge Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 01:36, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:From Commons (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Deleted on Commons (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:From Commons with Template:Deleted on Commons.
These seem to have the same purpose. We don't need both of them. Stefan2 (talk) 17:02, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge have a selector to choose the smaller or larger format. There is a slight difference in usage, as "from Commons" is for a file that is incompatible with Commons being copied to en.wiki, while "deleted on Commons" could be used for files that existed on both Commons and en.wiki subsequently deleted on Commons (this could be the result of a transfer to commons, then deletion on commons while the en.wiki one wasn't yet deleted). -- 70.51.46.146 (talk) 03:30, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Why is it necessary to include that difference in the template or if a user attempted to move a file to Commons which does not belong there? If a file on Commons is uploaded to English Wikipedia, this is typically indicated in the "source" parameter of the {{Information}} template. --Stefan2 (talk) 15:00, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge as the overlap of purpose seems substantial —PC-XT+ 21:07, 27 September 2014 (UTC) 05:03, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
