Human evolution/Species chart large(edit|talk|history|uses|watch|logs|delete)

Unused template in article space. Dismissed as too large to be used at Talk:Human evolution/Species chart#Help. --Pascal666 21:09, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The only real difference between this chart and Human evolution/Species chart (which is actually used) is that "ImageSize" was changed from "width:650 height:400" to "width:1150 height:500". --Pascal666 15:48, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Non-free with permission (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The fact that these images end up having to comply with WP:NFCC and thus fair use makes this template stupid and unnecessary. If we end up ultimately doing fair use for these images, why even have permission since most fair use is done without it anyway. ViperSnake151  Talk  01:26, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep We need some template to indicate that additional permission was given. Otherwise the effort of people who seeked it out and gave it will be wasted. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 20:07, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Securing permission for the use of non-free images covers our collective posteriors, since there may exist a class of images which meet the requirements of our our fair use policy, but are not legally fair use. Furthermore, images uploaded on good-faith fair use justifications may turn out to be neither consistent with WP:NFCC nor fair use under American copyright law; obtaining permission limits the potential harm inflicted upon the uploader by protecting him against a possible lawsuit for copyright infringement. Given the vagueness and uncertainties of the fair use doctrine, permission may sometimes be a prudent measure to avoid legal risk. Erik9 (talk) 00:02, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Erik9 - better safe than sorry. Good faith in fair use claims is fine as a general method of hoping to avoid problems, but evidence that there's permission is very helpful should anyone ever try to complain. DreamGuy (talk) 13:55, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infantes of Aragon (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Of no navigational aid to anybody. These "generations" are absolutely unknown by number, the majority of names are unlinked and nondescript, and often preceded by a redundant "Crown Prince" or "Infante". Srnec (talk) 05:19, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. It is a navigational aid to me, and I'm certainly somebody. Instead of throwing the baby out with the bathwater, let's crosscheck the generations listed and improve the template rather than delete it. --Caponer (talk) 20:43, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Quick! Off the top of your head, what is the ninth generation of the rulers of Aragon? I'm sure the links help you "navigate" from one page to another, but how do you know where you want to go from this template? Or where you should go? If you already know who most of the names on the template are, you might find it useful, but in that case you don't really need it, do you? After all, I might be looking for information unrelated to the other infantes of Aragon and there is no template to help me find that. This template, as is, is irrelevant to the articles it occurs in. I'm sure it could be improved, but I see no point to waste time. Add content, not templates.

Template:Hotels and Pension Houses (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Having a navigational template for these hotels is completely pointless as none of the articles listed has articles. So

it's pretty much the definition of a single-use template. User:Woohookitty Diamming fool! 04:16, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
