Template:US state and territory history (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

As per Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2012 August 26#Template:US states and territories, another confusing (for those not familiar with US postal district abbreviations), pointlessly decorative and misplaced that duplicates {{U.S. political divisions histories}} which already appears in the articles examined in the proper place.

This template was created five days ago. Any WikiProject that wants to keep this template may. Any WikiProject that wishes to remove this template may. What is your problem with the U.S. state WikiProjects choosing their own templates? WikiProject Colorado chooses to keep this template. Please quit harassing us. Yours aye,  Buaidh  02:01, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
How is any of this harassment? As for WP:COLO I've had a look at the talk page and all I can see is a notice about you spamming See also section of articles with excessive links and a notice from you about this discussion.--JohnBlackburnewordsdeeds 02:21, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Spamming apparently means contributing anything of which you don't approve.
I don't think links to other U.S. state histories can be considered excessive. Most historical events have regional impacts and reference to adjacent state histories is commonly very useful. This map template facilitates regional searches. Yours aye,  Buaidh  14:59, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redundant to {{Infobox rail service}}; only 73 transclusions. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 13:26, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. While the remaining 73 articles still using this template might take some time to modify, I have slowly but steadily been switching Japanese train service articles from this infobox to the universal {{Infobox rail service}}. Having extensively used both, I can see no reasons for retaining a dedicated Japanese infobox when the universal infobox generally does the job better. --DAJF (talk) 08:52, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
