Template:JollyModInorgChem (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Broken hard-coded cite, a template consisting of a template!. RichardΩ612 20:03, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Stop clogging up TFD with crappy nominations, all these templates do no harm by being kept. Pollo9087 (talk) 20:17, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Nousernameslefttalk and matrix? 20:31, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. JPG-GR (talk) 22:21, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete It's not broken (look at the includeonly code), and I substituted its only use. For those interested, see VPT for how this could be useful. For now, we can't handle organizing one template per citation though. –Pomte 00:53, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This template is completely unnecessary. Subseting was the correct step. --Farix (Talk) 03:36, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, per TheFarix. Happymelon 18:20, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, I am responsible for this template, obviously I made some technical error in setting up the template but I will try to fix it (unless it gets deleted). Over at the chemistry desk more people have started templates for the single purpose of generating references, there is even a category devoted to it: Category:Chemistry citation templates !. Do you people have a problem with this procedure as a whole, the fact that the template has a technical problem or that the template is used once? With respect to the last point, the reference is a general chemistry reference I have intended to use more often in response to numerous requests for references in chemistry articles. Please try to get a speedy verdict, I am not going to waste my time fact checking without the proper tools V8rik (talk) 18:17, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment. I have an issue with creating a template to display a citation. The citation template is easy enough to type out; if you feel you will use this specific cite regularly, feel free to move it to your userspace and subst: it when you use it. Layers of unsubst:'ed [dynamic] templates put more load on the servers. ><RichardΩ612 18:48, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep after explanation by V8rik. Can propose substitution rather than transclusion at the chemistry desk or some other appropriate place. Better in templatespace than userspace since multiple people can use it. Richard0612: don't worry about the server to the extent that other editors' work gets impeded. –Pomte 07:04, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Template:List of CoolThreads Application Tuning Artciles published by Sun (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Pointless list of links to PDF files that could be spammy and is useless at best, it can be subst:'ed onto the two articles it is used in. RichardΩ612 19:45, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Each list can be maintained separately, but they don't have to be. Deletion just makes it more annoying for editors trying to maintain the articles, and others who may not know to ensure consistency across the two articles. –Pomte 04:46, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why is it useless? Clearly not spam as they provide information about the subjects from the official source. It may be excessive, but by definition not spam. –Pomte 04:46, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This can be easily typed out manually, templates are not to be used for laziness!. RichardΩ612 17:06, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Nominations should not be made based on WP:IDONTLIKEIT. This was created for use on the "system administration" page MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist, implemented for use by Administrators who are unfamiliar with appropriate blacklist requests/removals responses. This is designed to address listing request, that do meet blacklisting criteria, but do require attention. Because the blacklist affects every page on the English Wikipedia. Additions to this list can cause damage to wikipedia on a wide scale. Any administrator can edit the spam blacklist, however not all (1,450) admins are familiar whith the apropriate protocal. A templated option provides order and protection, while preventing wide scale disruption.--Hu12 (talk) 17:41, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Withdrawn. OK, I can see that a template would be useful in this instance, but I didn't make this nomination on not liking it I made it on the belief [that at the time I thought was correct] that it was redundant. ><RichardΩ612 18:52, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Template is used in very few articles and can easily be replaced with {{Non-free symbol}} or {{Non-free logo}}. Many of the image pages which currently use the template are double-tagged with another non-free tag, which further shows its unnecessity. — –Dream out loud (talk) 04:08, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
