How is this and the category associated with it useful to the encyclopedia? It's just a list of dozens of usernames. Having Asperger's Syndrome does not make any significant contribution to Wikipedia. Mattl 23:45, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Same as above - per creator. I had thought of using date math to "categorize" actors as children, teens or adults; and then to re-categorize a child actor when he became a teen, etc. This idea did not catch on. (By the way, the {{age}} template I created a couple of years ago is used in thousands of bio articles. It advances the "age" of a person once a year, on their birthday.) --Uncle Ed 11:09, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Template	Transclusions	Notes	Steps before deletion
Template:Julie Christie Films (edit \| talk \| history \| links \| watch \| logs)	4	Redundant to Julie Christie#Filmography	Remove all transclusions
Template:James Coburn Films (edit \| talk \| history \| links \| watch \| logs)	0	Redundant to James Coburn#Filmography	None
Template:Connery movies (edit \| talk \| history \| links \| watch \| logs)	3	Redundant to Sean Connery#Filmography	Remove all transclusions

These are actor filmography templates. Such templates should not be used in film articles, as they create clutter and are only tangentially relevant to the films themselves. They should also not be used as navboxes in the actor/actress articles because they only provide the film title and year, whereas Wikipedia:Manual of Style (lists of works)#Filmographies suggests title, year, role, and notes. Approximately 25 similar templates were deleted on August 5 (link) and August 6 (link).

Unused? Have you even checked whatlinkshere for the template? I'd say there are about 1000 uses of this template. I'd recommend checking your facts before claiming that they are facts. Keep, for now. –sebi 07:20, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- ~~That's bizarre; I checked yesterday, and got a zero return. request withdrawn, for now. Andy Mabbett | Talk to Andy Mabbett 07:55, 15 August 2007 (UTC)~~[reply]

- Now showing one, shortly to be zero, uses. Andy Mabbett | Talk to Andy Mabbett 09:55, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - That's really strange as well, because I checked before and there were so many uses, and now I recheck again and there are no uses in the mainspace. –sebi 10:03, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    - Perhaps you would like to alter your "keep", accordingly? Andy Mabbett | Talk to Andy Mabbett 10:50, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Non-standard, and redundant to {{coord}} and {{GeoTemplate}}. Was little-used; all occurrences have now been converted. Andy Mabbett | Talk to Andy Mabbett 18:41, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This template is very close to Template:TOCStates except it cannot have other links and all of the state names are abbreviated. I switched two articles that used this one to TOCStates then realized that those were the only two articles that used this template. Basically it is not used any more and can be replaced with TOCStates. P.Haney 17:07, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Basically orphaned as single use (on Template:Infobox Album/color/doc) was substed to work around formatting issue. Also for consistency with sister page Template:Infobox Album/link/doc for which no such sub-template existed. --PEJL 07:04, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, single use is not a valid reason for its deletion. –sebi 07:33, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I think you are misunderstanding (which is understandable, as my nomination wasn't very clear). What was previously the single transclusion has now been substed. It is also linked from one article not related to this nomination (which is why I said "basically orphaned"). --PEJL 11:24, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Articles previously listed in navbox have been deleted, or links to other articles removed because the subjects are not companies. Corresponding category is similarly empty (and soon will be CfDed). --EEMeltonIV 06:19, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, per nominator's note. Is anyone else able to even see the template? It's hidden, and doesn't reappear even after clicking [show] a couple of hundred times. –sebi 07:17, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
