These templates should be deleted because they are not necessary in articles—Categories are sufficient for organizing these links—and because they cause problems with tracking what pages link where. Many of these templates have been deleted recently, starting with the Valdosta precedent, since confirmed here, here, here, and here. VC 04:38, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
- Delete per above. --Rschen7754 04:49, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
- Delete all—per precedent. Imzadi 1979 → 05:18, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
- Delete all per precedent. Also, not that it matters, but I vehemently disagree that SLC is a "medium-sized" metro. --Molandfreak (talk, contribs, email) 06:48, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
- If you want to get technical, according to List of Metropolitan Statistical Areas, the Birmingham MSA is larger than the Salt Lake City MSA. Also, Annapolis is not even its own metro area. I will keep my metro area size judgements to myself next time. VC 13:12, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep all per all my former votes. I agree with Molandfreak above. Salt Lake City is not a medium-sized city. Charlotte Allison (Allen/Morriswa) (talk) 11:33, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
- And even if it isn't a "medium-sized city", how would that invalidate the nomination other than to potentially shift it into a different batch of nominated templates? Imzadi 1979 → 22:38, 21 May 2015 (UTC)
- delete all per precedent. Frietjes (talk) 15:29, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
- Delete all - Per precedent. Dough4872 16:18, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep all, particularly Tulsa, which has a particularly large number of highways. BalooUriza (talk) 20:01, 26 May 2015 (UTC)
- What does number of highways in a metropolitan area have to do with whether to keep these templates? VC 23:51, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
