What? Do you know what this is for? It is redundant to {{GZM stations}}. Secondarywaltz (talk) 15:31, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Why does {{Station}}, or any of its derivatives, exist? All they do is obfuscate regular wikilinks: {{Station|City Hall}} = [[City Hall station|City Hall]]. Alakzi (talk) 15:47, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Related templates suffixed with lines, stations and color are all read by succession templates. Secondarywaltz (talk) 16:04, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- The linking function is secondary and the person who added the standard documentation did not fully understand the function and relationship. Secondarywaltz (talk) 16:07, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - I'd have raised no objections if they were meta-templates, but these are apparently used in articles. Take a look at the lede of Ealing Broadway station, for example - absurd. Alakzi (talk) 16:33, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    - We are talking about different fruit, and this is not the place to discuss those type of templates. As I said above, a series of templates named in a specific way like this one relate to succession templates. Secondarywaltz (talk) 16:45, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      - The nominator's rationale was "redundant to {{STN}}", which is a wrapper of {{Station}}. I was commenting on that. Alakzi (talk) 16:48, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        Exactly. That is not the template nominated for deletion. Secondarywaltz (talk) 16:53, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - unused and not needed. Secondarywaltz (talk) 16:53, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
