Template:Wikinews portal (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Completely unused in article space, and does not appear to have any functionalty whatsoever not covered by the main Template:Wikinews

  • Comment I don't see why this couldn't be used on Wikipedia Portals to link to Wikinews portals. I wouldn't expect this to be used in ArticleSpace at all. Though someone will need to roll it out for portals. -- 65.94.171.206 (talk) 05:32, 12 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Afaics, this only links to portals on English Wikinews; and on English Wikinews, portals are — for practical purposes — deprecated in favor of categories. --Pi zero (talk) 10:41, 12 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't quite see any issue with just using {{Wikinews|Portal:NameofPortal}} in the rare event that a portal exists. But, as I said, this template is unused Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:29, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Google books with page (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Obsolete. User:Arcadian created this in March 2009, but it became redundant in November 2009 when the page parameter was added to template:Google books. With the author's permission I have replaced the 5 transclusions. It seemed to take parameters in fixed positions without labels, so cannot be merged & redirected. Author agrees that it is redundant, see User talk:Arcadian#Template:Google books with page. – Fayenatic London 18:48, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:YFZ Ranch raid (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:FLDS Church (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:YFZ Ranch raid with Template:FLDS Church.
Very little in this template isn't in the general and more extensive FLDS Church template, and what isn't really isn't really related to the YFZ ranch except in general non-specific way. Is is just general information regarding Child abuse. While at the time of creation no FLDS Church template existed, so it was as a good template, however, I don't see a need anymore for it any more. --ARTEST4ECHO (talk) 16:22, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - the proposal to merge makes sense. -- 208.81.184.4 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 18:07, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - It's been 11 days with no objections. I'm going to go ahead and do it.ARTEST4ECHO (talk) 19:13, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:The Menagerie (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

A navigational template for a stable that hasn't even performed yet? Way too early, come back if they really become notable Fram (talk) 12:04, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Terrorist attacks in India (since 2001) (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant with the similar template Template:Campaignbox India terrorism that we have since 2007 while this was created only in 2013. Someone has been quite enthusiastic about creating it and replacing it on majority of pages with old one for no apparent reason. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 09:05, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes it is a fork of an old campaign box but new template is better organized and updated. It does not matter if we delete old instead of new one. If you delete new than please merge both data and format old one by reorganization of data. Regards -Nizil (talk) 17:24, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
And you thought of creating a new one of yours disregarding the efforts of many other editors for 6+ years and then replaced it on all articles because of what? Weren't you aware of the edit button on the first template? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 03:54, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
