The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Extra music sample. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 01:00, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Extra music sample (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Audiosample (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Extra music sample with Template:Audiosample.
Identical purpose. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
to reply to me 14:22, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The default headers for the templates are currently "Music sample" (changeable) and "Audio sample" (not changeable, but can be hidden) respectively, but I think it would be best if "Music sample" were changed to "Audio sample" for consistency to prevent having a large number of custom header values after merging. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
to reply to me 14:37, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

*Comment "Audiosample" is more appropriate for an infobox, since it lacks any info besides "Audio sample" (the infobox contains the title and artist). "Music sample" is better as a stand-alone (for the body of an article), when the artist, alternative title, etc., would benefit from identificaton. —Ojorojo (talk) 18:50, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- @Ojorojo: Both of them are only usable inside infoboxes (due to the table code). There's {{Listen}} for audio in the body of an article. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
  to reply to me 11:14, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge I was thinking of Listen. Two aren't necessary and the extra info is not needed in the infobox. —Ojorojo (talk) 13:15, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/AdIRC (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

I am nominating this template, as well as the templates on this list (a total of 154 templates), for deletion as being unused. The templates were either substituted onto the page itself, or the page no longer exists. Thus, they are unnecessary. Primefac (talk) 13:23, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Extra collapsed text

The result of the discussion was redirect to Template:Hidden. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 00:54, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Extra collapsed text (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to {{hidden}}; causes errors without HTML Tidy due to additional <tr> tags and uses unnecessary table code (nested tables are discouraged for accessibility reasons). An example of replacement is this edit to {{Living in the Material World tracks}}. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
to reply to me 12:03, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, unless a suitable replacement can be created, these lists provide a very useful way of navigating through the tracks of an album.QuintusPetillius (talk) 18:19, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @QuintusPetillius: The individual lists are to be kept. This proposal is to replace the template with another one, not to delete the content using the template entirely. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
  to reply to me 01:45, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
redirect to {{hidden}}. I just checked and this worked, so a redirect would work. Frietjes (talk) 19:46, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @Frietjes: Probably not ideal without proper replacement, as the header text would then be centre-aligned instead of left-aligned. There are only about 170 or so uses in the Template namespace so AnomieBOT could be used to substitute all of them in a few minutes first. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
  to reply to me 01:45, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - Jc86035, is there a reason to have the title text left aligned instead of centre aligned? Frietjes (talk) 13:25, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Frietjes: I suppose it's mostly personal preference, although {{Collapsible list}} has the title left-aligned. I wouldn't mind either option. (Note that I also converted {{All Things Must Pass tracks}}.) Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
