September 11

edit

Template:Falco KC Szombathely by season

edit

Navbox with one blue link in the body. DB1729talk 21:37, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as unhelpful for navigation, but without prejudice against re-creation if/when there are more articles for the template to connect. jlwoodwa (talk) 00:43, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2024 elections in the European Union

edit

These serve no useful purpose from what I can see, and the 2024 European Parliament elections are already all linked via {{European Parliament elections}}. I am not aware of any other templates linking all elections by year for a continent (probably as not many other people see a benefit in doing so). Number 57 20:12, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox clergyman

edit

Orphaned template that calls itself (Template-loop). —GoldRingChip 17:22, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Diplomatic missions in South Sudan

edit

Template that contains two redirects and one link to a non-resident mission. Unhelpful for navigation. AusLondonder (talk) 17:19, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:IUPHAR2

edit

Template marked as deprecated since 2009. Subst the two talk page usages and delete template. Gonnym (talk) 15:55, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Sailor Moon

edit

Unused WikiProject banner. All usages have previously been converted to parent banner. Gonnym (talk) 15:52, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Advert

edit

Propose merging Template:Advert with Template:Promotional tone.
{{Advert}} is rarely used on articles that actually read like adverts; what is most often (indeed, almost exclusively) meant is what is described by {{Promotional tone}} (aka {{Promo}}), which has a better name and better wording ("This article contains text that is written in a promotional tone." vs. "This article contains content that is written like an advertisement.". The use of {{Advert}} is thus often a cause of confusion among novice editors whose work is tagged with it. We certainly don't need two such templates. i also note that the category used by {{Advert}} is Category:Articles with a promotional tone; that {{Advert inline}} redirects to {{Promotion inline}}; and that {{Promotion}} redirects to {{Advert}}. I propose to redirect {{Advert}} to {{Promotional tone}}, and to have tools such as Twinkle updated accordingly. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:05, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Probably what needs to happen is that {{advert}} needs to be page moved to the preferable title, not redirected, as the longer-standing template serving this function. Izno (talk) 05:31, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That won't address the sub-optimal wording (which is apparently the reason why {{Promo}} was forked in the first place). Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 15:29, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Template:GeoTemplate/guideline

edit

Subpage containing text marked as a failed proposal from 2008. I was unable to find any talk pages with a proposal-related discussion linking to this page. – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:12, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:GeoTemplate/export

edit

No transclusions, even in the set of example pages that have been preserved at Template:GeoTemplate. It appears to have gone out of use sometime in the past ten or fifteen years. Nearly all edits since then have been maintenance edits, vandalism, or reverting vandalism. – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:11, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:GeoTemplate/Lang

edit

Unused subpage, marked as deprecated since 2009. The other subpages have been kept as examples, which is fine, but this one went out of use 15 years ago and is not needed. – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:04, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Article length bar/L0 through /L2

Template:2024 AL Record vs. NL

edit

No transclusions. Wikipedia is not a sports reference database. We don't need these sorts of standings until the end of the season, if ever. – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:29, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Multi-locus allele clusters

edit

Proposed article content created in 2007 but not currently used in any articles. It appears to have been proposed for use in an article but was disputed. It was used in an article way back in 2007 when it was created, but it was removed a few months later. It is now in use only in the original talk page proposal section, and in two archived versions of Race and genetics stored in the user space of a now-deceased editor. Subst into the three places where it is used. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:59, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:List of sovereign states strapline

edit

No transclusions. It appears that there is an explicit or implicit consensus to limit these "List of sovereign states in ..." articles to decades or a longer time frame (see {{Lists of political entities by century}}), so there is no need for this per-year navigational template. – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:20, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2024 UCI WorldTeams

edit

Apparent article content with no transclusions, documentation, template parameters, or incoming links. – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:04, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

edit

Apparent article content with no documentation, categories, transclusions, template parameters, or incoming links. – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:03, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, has been made redundant by @Redacted II --HLFan (talk) 11:18, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subpage in template space with no transclusions, no template parameters, no parent page, and no documentation. It looks like a Wikipedia-space page, but I don't know where it should be moved to. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:57, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – I created this for copy-and-paste text so that new entry pages can be created quickly each year. It's probably unnecessary as a full-fledged template; I've made Wikipedia:The Core Contest/Preparations/Entries text now instead. Aza24 (talk) 05:18, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jonesey95: Articles are created. Can you withdraw this? Mwiqdoh (talk) 19:04, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is still no main article. See WP:NAVBOX, item 4. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:30, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jonesey95: It's created now. Thanks Mwiqdoh (talk) 06:34, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Ambiguate

edit

@Jonesey95 er, the template clearly does have documentation Mach61 03:57, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My mistake. This template appears to be redundant to {{delink}}. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:47, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jonesey95 Not quite true; the template removes disambiguators as well, hence "ambiguate" Mach61 04:57, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:1863 railway accidents

edit

No transclusions. Navbox with only one link in the body. – Jonesey95 (talk) 03:52, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:1860 railway accidents

edit

No transclusions. Navbox with only two links in the body. – Jonesey95 (talk) 03:52, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can probably be merged into a decade one as Category:Rail transport accident templates has a lot of templates with 1-3 links (see Template:1862 railway accidents). Gonnym (talk) 08:10, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:APL

edit

No trancslusions, template parameters, documentation, or incoming links from relevant discussions. There are two previous TFDs, but those appear to have been for licensing template, not this unexplained transportation template. – Jonesey95 (talk) 02:08, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I've previously subst the few transclusions directly, as a wrapper of wrapper of a module is excessive. There are a few more in this set which are unused. Gonnym (talk) 08:08, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
