Moved. This hardly needed a TfD discussion; just WP:BEBOLD. Useddenim (talk) 16:49, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

s-line data modules

{{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 Superseded by Module:Adjacent stations/Exo, except for Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu public transit, which I split off to {{Canada transit color}}.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]

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]
