The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was delete. There is consensus to delete this page, which is a documentation page, nothing more. For changes to Template:Geobox, please code them up at Template:Geobox/sandbox and make an edit request at Template talk:Geobox. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 20:17, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Deprecated, and unused according to Category:Geobox usage tracking for valley type. Deletion would require removing the relevant call(s) from {{Geobox}} or its subtemplate(s). Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:15, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template of questionable necessity. There's nothing inherently special about being the mayor of a city that happens to be a provincial or territorial capital -- this simply doesn't constitute a unified group of people who have any noteworthy linkages to each other on this basis. Much, much more useful and relevant would be a "big city mayors" template, inclusive of major non-capital cities like Vancouver and Calgary and Montreal -- some of the mayors in this template would still be in that one too, granted, while others would not. But if a cross-Canada mayoral template is desired, John Tory and Jim Watson need contextual links to bigshots like Valérie Plante and Gregor Robertson (→ Kennedy Stewart in December) and Naheed Nenshi far more than they would ever need links to Lisa Helps or Clifford J. Lee or Madeleine Redfern, because the "big city mayors" axis is a lot more important in the Canadian context than the "mayors of cities that happen to be capitals" axis. And no, just because the US has one of these doesn't mean Canada automatically needs one too — I can't speak to whether there's something in American political culture that makes "mayors of state capitals" inherently noteworthy as a group or not, but there's certainly nothing in Canadian political culture that does so.

  • Leaning delete. The only common linkage I can think of is due to the fact that, unlike our southern [I don't think we can say "neighbour" any more], capitals of Canadian provinces also tend to be the largest cities in those provinces by a fair margin (Edmonton, Regina and Fredericton are all second- or third-largest; only Victoria is significantly smaller). But even that is just an underlying statistic, not a unifying factor or defining characteristic of the individuals. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 14:33, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • There is no need to keep relisting this item. I was only asking Pppery to do some basic cleaning up of his code, which apparently he is not willing to do. This is disappointing, especially for a template editor. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 20:29, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Uncited template that doesn't even match the list that it is based on. Even a user said that it uses obsolete radii to lazily get VY Canis Majoris and VV Cephei A to the top. 2407:7000:A269:8200:1D14:E2BA:760:EBBE (talk) 06:04, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Not just for the reasons above but I find it utterly useless. Besides, why there should be 10 and not 25? Or 100? It sounds more like material for a trivia article than a template. Psyluke (talk) 11:09, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
