{{s-line}} templates for various commuter rail and bus transit services which fall under the umbrella of Exo (public transit) (previously known as AMT and RTM, hence the unusually large number of redirects). Superseded by Module:Adjacent stations/Exo, except for Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu public transit, which I split off to {{Canada transit color}}. There are also 12 dependent s-line data modules to be deleted. Mackensen (talk) 20:03, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom and past consensus to migrate away from s-line. BLAIXX 13:44, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:AMT Station (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Between the two rebrandings of Agence métropolitaine de transport and the adoption of WP:CANSTATION no articles use this naming convention, and the template was already almost wholly deprecated in favor of {{Exos}}, which does the same thing. Mackensen (talk) 14:49, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No objections, as long as there is a WP:HISTMERGE from {{AMT Station}}, {{RTMs}} and {{Exo stations}} into {{Exos}}. (There was a lot of cut 'n' paste editing in the creation of this series of templates.) Useddenim (talk) 15:23, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Useddenim: That's an interesting question. For the stations, Module:Adjacent stations/Exo amounts to a "clean room" reimplementation based on the "what links here" for {{Exo stations}}. That's not quite the case for lines and line colors, although the chaos caused by the AMT/RTM/Exo rebranding means that there's a lot of inconsistent information regarding transit agency names. Inasmuch as we're talking about public data and not prose, I'm not sure how important a history merge is; and for line and color information there's no target. I may be misunderstanding which history you're looking to preserve. Mackensen (talk) 17:09, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if it's not actually necessary… But now, if one looks at the history of {{Exos}} it appears to have sprung fully-fledged into existence just nine months ago, while in actual fact it's lineage can be traced back almost five years to {{AMT Station}}. But yes, there's no need to keep the original template itself anymore. Useddenim (talk) 17:21, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The presence of a former code that did a process similar to the current one, does not make a newer code based on the former. If that were the case, you'd see even more copyright claims for every piece of code used by Microsoft, Apple, Google and the rest. Code is different in this sense than an article text. Looking at the code of all the links linked above, I see no resemblance of any connection between the new and the old, other than the fact that they both deal with the same subject. --Gonnym (talk) 19:50, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as unused and replaced by newer code. Would seem that {{Exo stations}}, {{Exo color}}, {{Exo style}} and {{Exo lines}} can also be deleted as unused. --Gonnym (talk) 19:50, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. For a few months, AMT, RTM, and Exo templates all existed at the same time and had the same function. I redirected everything I could into Exo, but with the new modules and transclusions being replaced, the template can be deleted. BLAIXX 13:55, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

unnecessary fork of Template:Navbox Canada Frietjes (talk) 13:39, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I created this because I wanted to give it a colorful look and also because I want to give these templates a new look. Same goes for every country in the world. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RainbowSilver2ndBackup (talk • contribs)
- Could you or Frietjes please explain to me why there is even a need for a module (which includes the Canada one also) that duplicates Module:Navbox? --Gonnym (talk) 19:52, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - the Canadian one has existed since 2013 to reduce the complexity of inline styling introduced in October 2008 (see the complexity of the inline styling version vs the current style sheet version). the Canadian module does not duplicate any functionality in Module:Navbox if you check the code. the module does the calculations necessary to add the thin red borders in the correct places. there is consensus for the Canadian styling at WT:Canada. there is no consensus for the styling introduced by the navbox being discussed here. Frietjes (talk) 13:39, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete "I want to make the navbox colorful" isn't a strong reason to duplicate the existing template. While foolish consistency may be the "hobgoblin of little minds", in this case changing the colors from the standard set doesn't seem worth the extra complexity in maintaining a new navbox and module. Railfan23 (talk) 21:06, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- If she wants to delete the A,erican one, why can't she just delete the Canadian one. RainbowSilver2ndBackup (talk) 21:15, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
