Unused and I don't think has been used since creation. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:47, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete (as creator). Redundant to {{Year in US state category}}. I can't recall the history of why I created this, but I am puzzled by the nominator's statement that they don't think has been used since creation. On what basis is that claim made? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:53, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This template was used to transclude a section of text into the articles of about 80 telephone area codes. This is now a past event, so this should be substed on the pages that use it and deleted. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 20:49, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:User link. Izno (talk) 05:23, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Username with Template:User link.
The Username template does the exact same think as the User link template, just less efficiently. It's not as used and there isn't any reason for it to exist separately. ― Levi_OPTalk 18:57, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special. Izno (talk) 05:26, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This unused template is redundant to Template:EmmyAward VarietySpecialWriting but was created first. Of these two templates, EmmyAward VarietySpecialWriting is more up to date (has 2021 winner) and is used. There's a few possibilities that could be done here:

  • Primetime Emmy Award template be redirected to EmmyAward template.
  • EmmyAward template be replaced with Primetime Emmy Award template (as it was created first) and updated to add the 2021 winner.

Which would be the better option here? Thanks! MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 18:16, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Replace EmmyAward template should be replaced by the template nominated. The nominated template is the proper name for the award per the name of the page. Not sure why the informal name is the one that is used. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:57, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A recreated template that was deleted back in March 2017 for only having one link. Now it has two, but one of them is a redirect. Navigational benefit is not presented yet again. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:27, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of American football-related deletion discussions. Paul McDonald (talk) 23:53, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Paul McDonald, a navbox needs a minimum of five links. That's a policy that is not being upheld with this template. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 23:57, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not familiar with such policy, can you provide a link? If so, then perhaps MERGE would be a better option to another template such as a similar Div I FBS or Div II or such.--Paul McDonald (talk) 00:22, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I still cannot find any reference to such a policy--anyone?--Paul McDonald (talk) 11:46, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Paul McDonald, no policy as far as I know, just an essay. Frietjes (talk) 17:32, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment That's all I could find too. I believe this nomination is erroneously made based upon there being a "policy" about a minimum number of links of 5--those taking a deletion position have supplied that as the only reason (see WP:PERNOMINATOR as an argument to avoid). The essay Wikipedia:Not everything needs a navbox is a good essay but so is Wikipedia:A navbox on every page. I believe this question comes down to an editing issue rather than a policy. For the reasons I gave above (standardization, navigation, history, completion) I will maintain my position of Keep.--Paul McDonald (talk) 19:21, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete 2 links is not enough to justify a template. Joseph2302 (talk) 12:36, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The challenge here is that programs change conference status rather frequently. When it was created in 2020 there were four such programs: [1]. All four have since joined conferences. It doesn't require a crystal ball to predict that more programs at that level will become independent and justify the (re-)creation of the template. Repeatedly deleting and re-creating a navigational template isn't helpful. Mackensen (talk) 12:10, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
