Single-use template which is currently unused and unlikely to be used. See the discussion at User talk:Pi.1415926535#Template:Arlington (MBTA station) for context. Mackensen (talk) 23:23, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Mackensen - it's utterly redundant to other information in the article. Similarly, I believe the following unused templates should also be deleted:
Extended content

@Pi.1415926535: Seems reasonable to add them. Mackensen (talk) 03:46, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all. There is no reason for a diagram for such a simple track layout. –Daybeers (talk) 01:21, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Superseded by Module:Adjacent stations/MARC. All transclusions replaced. I've put the six S-line subpages within a collapsed section; they're wholly dependent on the three main templates and should also be deleted. Mackensen (talk) 22:19, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Spare Template:MARC color (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages), as it has other uses than the S-line templates, but the rest can go.oknazevad (talk) 23:02, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Oknazevad: All those uses have been replaced; colors are passed through {{rail color}}. Mackensen (talk) 23:20, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, just saw your edits to that effect. So then, delete all. oknazevad (talk) 23:41, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all per reasons above. –Daybeers (talk) 01:18, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Mackensen: With all your over-zealous deletions of {{XXX color}} templates, you've gone and discarded numerous /doc subpages without preserving that information anywhere. (Possibly should be at {{rail color/doc}}?) Care to explain? Useddenim (talk) 14:54, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Useddenim: As I mentioned at Template talk:Adjacent stations#Data module documentation I created {{Rail template doc}} to address this need. I've implemented in various places, but I hadn't gotten to MARC yet. I do think that the Adjacent stations modules are somewhat more self-documenting than XXX color, given that the data is visible on the module page. Cheers, Mackensen (talk) 16:16, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Added for MARC. Mackensen (talk) 16:19, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete unless I'm misunderstanding something. What's the point of these templates? MARC Line, for example, has essentially no content except the deletion template. And MARCs don't have colors or stations or anything like that. Nyttend (talk) 22:30, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    @Nyttend: these were for populating station succession boxes and such for MARC Train services. See {{S-line}} for more details. Nothing to do with library metadata. Best, Mackensen (talk) 22:34, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Oh, okay; sorry. I spent two hours today with colleagues in a meeting with EBSCO representatives, so MARCs are on my mind, and I missed the MARC Train entry at Marc. I still question the value of these templates and heartily endorse your proposal. Nyttend (talk) 22:39, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

no longer needed after being merged (with attribution) with 2018 Úrvalsdeild per discussion at WT:FOOTY. Frietjes (talk) 14:06, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Only the artist for this navigational box has an article. There are no articles for any of the band's albums. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 08:09, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This musical group's navigational template consists of five links: the musical group's article, a band member's article and three redirects. That leaves only two links that already navigate to each other making this navigational template unnecessary and WP:NENAN. Aspects (talk) 05:41, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Only the main article of this navigation box exists as all the other listed articles have been deleted or moved to draft space. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 03:49, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
