Delete all per previous TfD discussion and deletion of similar navboxes @Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2014 October 15; in that prior TfD discussion, we have already deleted navboxes for Southeastern Conference student newspapers and mass transit systems. The subjects of these navboxes are various constituent academic colleges and schools of the member universities of specific college athletic conferences. Colleges of business, engineering, law and medicine are not college varsity sports teams, and they are not directly related to the universities' membership in their athletic conferences. The prestige and academic reputation of these colleges and schools are not dependent on the membership of their parent universities in these athletic conferences. In fact, the universities' membership in such sports conferences has little, if anything, to do with the universities' constituent colleges and schools: these are college sports conferences, not academic associations. To help discussion participants better evaluate these attenuated relationships in Wikipedia terms, here are the five WP:NAVBOX criteria for evaluating whether a particular subject may be appropriate for a navbox:

"1. All articles within a template relate to a single, coherent subject.
"2. The subject of the template should be mentioned in every article.
"3. The articles should refer to each other, to a reasonable extent.
"4. There should be a Wikipedia article on the subject of the template.
"5. You would want to list many of these articles in the See also sections of the articles."

In my opinion, all of these navboxes fail criteria nos. 2, 3, 4 and 5 -- and these criteria, including the absence of stand-alone articles for these topics, strongly suggest that these are not appropriate navbox topics. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 20:17, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • @TonyTheTiger: No, for the simple reason that the Ivy League business, law and med schools are actually supported by existing list articles, and there is some academic reputational validity to those three groupings, so they are not situated similarly to the AAC, ACC, Big Ten, Pac-12 and SEC groupings. In fairness, I plan to submit those three Ivy League navboxes in a separate TfD to permit them to be judged on their own merits, without confusing this TfD discussion. (I also responded to your inquiry on my user talk page, tony.) Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 04:34, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Aspect (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Vanity template for non-notable band. Used only on one userpage. Orange Suede Sofa (talk) 17:46, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete – Seems to feign notability by adding all the notable artists they've covered on the bottom, but I can't find anything that makes them notable. TCN7JM 20:17, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • We might not be notable yet, but we're doing gigs and small shows, and this is a big deal for everyone involved. It's funny, one template is accepted using one method, and the next is not... anyway, I created it so that it adds that extra little bit of information in the form of a template, because that's basically what all other artists use, notable or not. If I'm dedicating a large piece of my user page to Aspect, then I thought a template would be a great way to finish it off. It's just a personal thing that I've added to the page to say that I've contributed in that sort of way. If it were to be kept, within the next year it wouldn't look as simple as it does. Please, don't delete the template. (talk)4TheWynne(cont) 20:39, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nomination rationale: non-notable band; all but one of the working links are to articles about those notable bands whose songs have been covered by the subject band. The last link (the subject band's name) is actually a redirect to the article about the lead singer. This violates so many of the WP:NAVBOX criteria I don't even know where to start. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 20:58, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Firstly, it directs to the user page of the bass player. Secondly, if I'm just using it as an aid for my user page (and nothing else), then despite the violations, is it really that big a deal? Can't I just keep it there where it (seemingly) won't bother anyone with its non-notability? (talk)4TheWynne(cont) 21:04, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Dirtlawyer1, or userfy if 4TheWynne wants to keep it for personal use. Alakzi (talk) 00:35, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I left instructions on 4TheWynne's talk page on how to userify this. Regards, Orange Suede Sofa (talk) 01:28, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I've tried the idea, and I hope it works. (talk)4TheWynne(cont) 04:11, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

extremely large collapsed table which really should only be used in one article, we already have {{History of South Asia}}. Frietjes (talk) 15:02, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nevertheless, I'dprefer to keep it. Indian history is very complicated, and this gives a very nice overview. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 06:22, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
