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

single use template, which could be merged with the prose in the corresponding section. In the thread concerning this template here, I do not see strong consensus for its use. If we need it, we can just substitute the template (without all the collapsible junk). Frietjes (talk) 21:06, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Altline light purple (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Template:Altline white (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

These are rather old templates which were used to create lines of alternating colour in sidebar boxes. I have replaced most of them with the now standard and more modern {{sidebar}} template, which doesn't use it (see template:Catalan/Valencian cultural domain‎ for example). If we want alternating colours we should use css classes per wp:deviations, like "navbox-even" and "navbox-odd". For an example of how to do this in a sidebar see template:Cosmic Marvel, which combines sidebar with navbox. Frietjes (talk) 15:34, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. As there were no comments on this, it seems that this is an uncontroversial deletion, and so now let's finally put this template to bed. SchuminWeb (Talk) 17:32, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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

This template was used on pages that had been deleted and should not be recreated; it was superceded by the present creation protection prior to September 2007. In September 2007 a previous TfD closed with the outcome to replace the template with a protected redirect to Wikipedia:Protected titles. That redirect was nominated for deletion last month at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2011 September 6#Template:Deletedpage. During the discussion the redirect was boldly converted back to a template, although subsequent discussion neither reflected this nor came to a consensus, although some comments there are relevant here too. As it is no longer a redirect but a template I've brought the discussion here rather than relisting it at RfD. The landscape has changed since September 2007, and creation protection is a mature system now so I think it worthwhile to reexamine the previous TfD rather than simply defer to it. This nomination should be seen as procedural only, and while I do have an opinion I am not going to express it unless others would be happy it would not be inapropriate given my closure of the RfD.

Template:Uw-tweak (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

A "humor" template which is only very mildly humorous, and could easily be mistaken for a serious warning. I'm not against humor; I just fail to see the benefit of non-funny humor. (I can't get exact phrase searching to work at the moment, for some reason, so I can't tell you if it has ever been used.) — This, that, and the other (talk) 11:15, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:—/meta/shortname (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused; not needed. (On another note, what system uses these "/meta/shortname" templates? They are mostly not subpages, despite the naming pattern.) — This, that, and the other (talk) 10:55, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Ethnic groups in Vojvodina (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Declined db-reason, with rationale:

see Template:Ethnic groups in Serbia

While this is a procedural nomination, I agree that it is a duplicate and should be replaced with that other template. — This, that, and the other (talk) 10:49, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
