Template:Infobox Motorcycle Specifications (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This is redundant because it duplicates what already exists at {{Infobox motorcycle}} - a template that is used on hundreds of motorcycle articles. The infobox is only used on three articles, so now is the right time to kill it, before it spreads. Biker Biker (talk) 20:02, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - before it spreads.--Dbratland (talk) 21:29, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Would it not be sensible to add the extra fields from this infobox to {{Infobox motorcycle}} template before it is deleted? Captain n00dle ^T/_C 09:30, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Response: It is certainly worth discussing within the motorcycling wikiproject. The existing infobox has been rationalised somewhat over the past year or so, reducing the number of fields, but new fields could be added if consensus were reached within the project. --Biker Biker (talk) 09:56, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Territories of Greater China (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

I've looked at every usage of this template on the articles where it was used. It adds nothing to the articles that isn't already done by other templates, article text, or categories. It's not useful for navigation or any other purpose, and the defining term "Greater China" is nebulous, resulting in arguments. SchmuckyTheCat (talk) 06:53, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Redundant to {{Chinese-speaking nations and regions}}, and nationalist POV problems are likely. --RL0919 (talk) 13:34, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. For all the reasons stated above. Readin (talk) 15:27, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Mobile Suit Gundam series coding

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the discussion was Substitute and delete for now as it is currently only used on one article (List of Universal Century vehicles and craft). It could possibly be recreated in a different form when List of Universal Century vehicles and craft is cleaned up. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 18:19, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Mobile Suit Gundam series coding (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose ~~deletion~~: Template is no longer in use, and is furthermore redundant to {{Mobile Suit Gundam}}. Which is annoying, as I just cleaned the template up ;) G.A.S ^talk 04:57, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support Death to redundancy. Will we ever see the end of the Gundam template/category madness? --KrebMarkt 05:25, 20 August 2009 (UTC) Bow to others editors opinions. Keep for now. --KrebMarkt 17:02, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I though that this was still in use by an article, not sure if it was a character or mobile weapons list, in part because the list hadn't yet been separated by series. But with all of the cleanup going on in the Gundam articles, I may be mistaken. --Farix (Talk) 11:09, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I'll should also note that the original template was a legend to denote which entries on the list belong to which series and was not a navbox or a sidebar to aid navigation. So it really can't be compared with {{Mobile Suit Gundam}}. However, these was inappropriately changed just prior to the TfD nomination. --Farix (Talk) 13:31, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - So it was cleaned up to something it wasn't, and is now reverted? —Quasirandom (talk) 14:15, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    - I've restored it as a legend. It premature to delete this template until the list that it was originally left on is itself cleaned up or deleted. --Farix (Talk) 14:27, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      - Sorry, I have misunderstood the purpose of the template, thanks for clarifying. Recommend keep for until such time the list itself is cleaned up, redirected or deleted. G.A.S ^talk 16:17, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Just wanted to note that if the only intended use of this template is in a single article, then you could create a table within the article itself rather than using a template. But I agree that there is no rush to delete this as long as cleanup of the situation is proceeding. --RL0919 (talk) 16:32, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete after list cleanup (aka keep for now (or Quasi's suggestion to do nothing ^_^ 18:47, 21 August 2009 (UTC))), per above comments. It appears that the list using this is List of Universal Century vehicles and craft. 「ダイノガイ千？！」^{? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000} 16:48, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Do nothing. Keep the template for now, until article cleanup has progressed enough it can be disposed of. —Quasirandom (talk) 18:12, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Subst and delete no need to wait for cleanup if it's only used in one article. 76.66.192.144 (talk) 06:51, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
