Delete or convert to navbox, which it should be. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 16:51, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Convert to Navbox - There is a purpose for this template, as other navies have navboxes at the end of their articles to link to shared subject articles which are also covered under the categories at the end of the article as well. As for lack of usage, then it only needs to be implemented properly. --RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 17:36, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Template:Boxford (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This template groups together small settlements in the electoral ward of Boxford. This is a highly unlikely grouping for users to require, outside of the context of Babergh District Council. The existence of Template:Babergh, which contains all of these settlements, measn that the Boxford template is just a duplication of information, and is overtemplating. Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 11:04, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, and any templates others like it. --Kudpung (talk) 13:31, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Don't know what this is on about. Unused. — This, that, and the other (talk) 11:03, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It was used in the articles it links to, as a navigation box, but was replaced by "see also" links in 2007. Peter E. James (talk) 15:57, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WXCOM Local (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused external link template. Providing links to weather sites is probably not useful, but that is almost beside the point - this template is unused, period/full stop. — This, that, and the other (talk) 11:00, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Watchlistlink2 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Template:Watchlistlink3 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Template:Watchlistlink4 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

I BOLDly userfied {{Watchlistlink}}, because there was only one user of it. The creator of that template (who is now retired) created these, which are just permutations of the one I userfied. No-one at all appears to use these, so they can be deleted. (The sole transclusion of {{Watchlistlink3}} is in a discussion, and is not a real use.) — This, that, and the other (talk) 10:34, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Move to project space. This is what I would have done unilaterally in the first place, had I known the purpose of these templates. So that's why I have made this non-admin closure. — This, that, and the other (talk) 08:57, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

They were used in Wikipedia:WikiProject Washington State Highways/Completion list until November 2010[1]. It now transcludes pages that never existed. It's possible that these templates are still useful - they could be moved to the titles that are now transcluded, or the changes in that edit could be undone. Peter E. James (talk) 16:07, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but needs to be fixed, as when I was moving pages around I think I broke the links to the tmeplate. --Admrboltz (talk) 16:09, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Templates have been deorphaned and fixed. --Admrboltz (talk) 19:30, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, these look like completion list templates. Fix them if you care; I don't. --NE2 06:20, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - These serve a purpose. Dough 48 72 23:12, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- That's a good idea. — This, that, and the other (talk) 11:30, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Move to the projectspace per WOSlinker—these templates are indeed used, just not in the mainspace. Airplaneman ✈ 05:57, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Delete, both templates were created at about the same time and appear to have the same authors, so history merge is not necessary. If someone believes a redirect is really necessary, one can be created. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 21:36, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect this was merged with Template:Novels by Orson Scott Card. Peter E. James (talk) 16:10, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete—Template:Novels by Orson Scott Card in turn redirects to Template:OrsonScottCard; since there are no current uses, I believe a redirect would be useless. Airplaneman ✈ 06:08, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was userfy. I will perform a history merge with this and User:Rentastrawberry/Warning Template, the target page which already exists, holding an older version of the template. A redirect will not be created. Airplaneman ✈ 06:02, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Warning box (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Yet another "humor" template which is not very funny. And, it's not used. — This, that, and the other (talk) 07:07, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Move to User:Rentastrawberry/Warning Template without redirect. 134.253.26.6 (talk) 23:23, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Userfy. I think it's funny, and it says right on the page: "This page contains material that is kept because it is considered humorous.". --vgmddg (look | talk | do) 03:26, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unused. Effectively a TOC (all the hashlinks). Unnecessary. — This, that, and the other (talk) 07:06, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary, as a table of contents with the correct links to the headings is included automatically in the article. If the headings need to be simplified this should be done in the article instead of a second TOC. Peter E. James (talk) 16:15, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unused. I don't really understand Marvel Comics, but I believe that their characters often appear in multiple comic series. I think this one has a bit of overlap with X-Men.

Template:Sftvindxbottom (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Replaced by {{sftvpr}} (which should probably be deleted, but that's beside the point here). — This, that, and the other (talk) 05:16, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, go ahead and delete it, if you have administrative rights. It's my oldest attempt to organize the contents of this page, which is becoming larger as I add more and more items, and was badly in need of a contents table. Also, as you pointed out, I've already replaced it with {{sftvpr}}.
But I don't see the reason behind your assessment to delete {{sftvpr}}. Just tell me what's wrong with it, and I'll adjust it accordingly, if it's breaking any wiki policies.
Thanks for listening.

- Thanks for that message. I'll speedy delete this template. The problem with List of science fiction television programs is that it has no less than three contents lists - a navbar, a category-like TOC panel, and a navbox. {{sftvpr}} is a misuse of a navbox (see WP:NAVBOX). As for the others, I am wondering why a normal standard Table of Contents can't be used - I've tried it out in preview, and it seems to work fine (apart from the unfortunate alphabetical headings... but that's a minor concern). I suggest you reconsider your use of non-standard ToC elements in that article. Thanks, — This, that, and the other (talk) 06:38, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy close The "template" is not marked with a TfD banner, and it is not a template, it is a redirect. Redirects go in RfD. 64.229.103.232 (talk) 05:53, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Attack (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This template seems quite redundant to many other standardized user warning templates. Perhaps it should be redirected to either Template:Uw-npa3 or Template:Db-attack-notice. It was also once moved to the previous Template:Uw-attack (which is now a redirect to Template:Uw-npa1 in this edit history but was reverted afterwards instead. :| TelCo NaSp Ve :| 02:22, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Attack pages are covered by Wikipedia:Attack page. This is distinguished from Wikipedia:No personal attacks. Attack pages are actually a NPOV issue, usually. So the case could be made to redirect to the uw-npov series, but this may be a situation in which the specific warning is necessary. Redirecting to db-notice isn't a workable result because speedy deletion isn't always the remedy, or the warning may follow the execution of the deletion, rendering the advice in the db-notice useless. The template should be formatted for uw and kept as a separate template. --Bsherr (talk) 18:14, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep As Bsherr mentions this template is concerned with creating Attack pages not personal attacks against editors. Therefore, redirecting or merging it with any NPA related template is not appropriate. Redirecting to a Db related template is only appropriate if the page has been tagged for deletion. Bsherr makes a fair point about it being an NPOV issue, but I feel in this case we should maintain a specific template; despite its infrequent use.

Template:Disamb-also (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Produces, with three inputs, a standard intro (lead) of a disambiguation page:

{{disamb-also|Kendal|is a market town in Cumbria, England|It}} →
{{disamb-also|Kendal|is a market town in Cumbria, England|It}}.

This is not a hatnote, spacing and punctuation & grammar is very sensitive, and in general, the introduction of a page can well be written manually. The template does add nothing. I have removed four from disambiguation-pages. DePiep (talk) 01:40, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Did you mean (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Hatnote. Produces the text Did you mean PAGE2?, which has the wrong tone for a reader. I could replace all ~15 uses with a {{distinguish}} or {{for}}, with more neutral language. In general, I don't think we want to address a reader this way. DePiep (talk) 01:03, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

redirect to {{distinguish}}, since Google writes that on their results page, so would be a useful redirect. 64.229.103.232 (talk) 05:56, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is that what the external google-gadget on the talkpage is about? I do not see a link with this template, looks like in another situation (search). -DePiep (talk) 11:32, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete after replacing with another disambiguation hatnote. Probably {{distinguish}} or, and don't forget this one, {{misspelling}}. --Bsherr (talk) 18:18, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Oh, I see what's going on now. That sort of "free invocation" of templates as occurs in Template:Reactionbox Entry is quite offputting.
