In the same fashion as Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2018 November 21#Template:Brief, these templates were created in 2006, and are fan sites that provide no new information that cannot be gained from other more reliable "external link" websites (e.g. the BBC itself), making them unnecessary. Nor would using these websites directly in an article as a source satisfy WP:RS. Per WP:ELNO: one should generally avoid providing external links to: Blogs, personal web pages and most fansites (negative ones included), except those written by a recognized authority. Some sites can provide further information, yes, as long as they're considered a reliable source. These are not. These are fan sites, not written by a recognized authority, and hence do not conform with WP:ELNO #11. It fails WP:ELYES #3, because they cannot they fail WP:ELMAYBE #4, because of the amount of uncertainty as to who these sources are. -- AlexTW 12:17, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Discussants may wish to look at our article about Outpost Gallifrey wherein there are mentions of it being subject to critical acclaim (and hence might be a RS). Absent any further discussion, I will close this as delete in a week's time, though.

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Round. Primefac (talk) 01:57, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Rnd, Template:Round and Template:Decimals.

All redundant to each other. We should move {{rnd}} to {{round}} as Template:Round is the better name, but {{rnd}} has more features when compared to {{round}} and {{decimals}} such as adding trailing zeros (expected behavior), adding commas (makes it easier to read) and removing decimals by default (expected behavior of a template of this type).

I added transclusion count and module to the first table. Johnuniq (talk) 08:57, 15 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge: I changed the example value in the first group to exhibit the rounding feature, and tried to describe the behaviour more precisely. I ask for adding as grouping separators spaces instead of commata, because they are easier on the eye for those being accustomed to "comma" as decimal separator (pro domo). Purgy (talk) 10:11, 15 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge Clearly duplicate templates and should clearly be merged. One more lua module falls! {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 22:18, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge, although disagree with Purgy. For the moment, the MOS suggests that the decimal separator is always ".", rather than ",". Perhaps the gap character could be specified with additional options, per {{val}}. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 23:08, 22 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I just asked for using by default another grouping separator (a non-breaking thin(?) space) instead of a "comma", and reasoned this request by hinting to conflicting habits for the decimal separator, like others use imperial units. I did not touch the use of "." as a decimal separator. I am aware of additional possibilities via {{val}}. Purgy (talk) 08:11, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
