Propose merging Template:No significant coverage (sports) with Template:No significant coverage.
I suggest redirecting {{No significant coverage (sports)}} to {{No significant coverage}}. I don't think it's normal to have topic-based sub-templates for maintenance tags, and I don't see any obvious advantages to having this separate. If I'm missing something please let me know. –Novem Linguae (talk) 23:29, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The requirement for all sportsperson biographies to cite at least one source containing IRS SIGCOV distinguishes the status of articles tagged with it from those tagged with the redirect target. The latter situation doesn't necessarily mean an article fails/is claimed to fail a guideline, so there is less urgency to source the affected articles than there is for deficient sportsperson bios. This tag also offers more direct guidance to authors who may be not be aware of SPORTSCRIT or of what counts as SIGCOV in sports. JoelleJay (talk) 00:01, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Navboxes with no transclusions and no incoming links from discussions. Established sidebar templates at {{Books of the Book of Mormon}} and {{Figures in the Book of Mormon}} appear to be preferred over this recent creation. – Jonesey95 (talk) 23:26, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No objections. The templates were created during a discussion (permanent link) at Template talk:Book of Mormon because I didn't understand how template sandboxes worked. A third opinion volunteer gave advice (permanent link) that a bottom navigation box would be more reader-friendly than a sidebar navigation box. But that discussion and effort petered out.

Navbox with just one blue link in the body (some are redirects that go to the city's article, not a politics article). Not usable for navigation. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:38, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This template was created to line up the SNL season articles with the five-year chunk history articles. These history articles have now been superseded and redirected to a new singular History of Saturday Night Live page, and this template is now no longer necessary.

It appears that this template was used for a while and then removed in 2013 from one or more articles that used it. Subst and delete, or userfy to the user space of the editor who kept an old copy of the table in that article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:07, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No transclusions. Appears to be an unfinished experiment from May 2024. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:03, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Completely pointless. I also fail to see how any of the "trout"-esque templates contribute to editing. Gonnym (talk) 11:50, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Single-use table with no documentation, categories, incoming links from discussions, or template parameters. Subst into article and delete. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:55, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support Brindille1 (talk) 19:09, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To be more specific, I support deletion. I'd initially created this page months ago thinking there would be multiple usages for it. That's clearly not been the case, and it makes sense to delete move it into the article. Brindille1 (talk) 23:33, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This template is a mess. Full of red links, and even some of the working links are redirects (often to just an article for the relevant police force)

It seems to be a form of LISTCRUFT albeit in template form, with no clear reasoning behind what constitutes a "policing unit". Elshad (talk) 11:33, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This nav box only has 2 entries, one of which is up for deletion. The Japan article is actually to Japanese WP. There is not much point for a nav box for a small number of entries. LibStar (talk) 06:08, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Incomprehensible. It was used without explanation at Isfahan until I removed it from that article. No documentation, categories, or incoming links. Created in 2022. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:47, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
