The template is now redundant to Template:Wichita Thunder and Template:Succession box. ilamb94 (talk) 18:13, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: This template has transclusions, and there is no clear evidence of why this template should be deleted or is safe to delete ... considering that the links present in this template do not seem present on either one of the other templates. Steel1943 (talk) 01:56, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Per wp:navbox, succession boxes are preferred to navboxes for positions such as a coach. And I think what Ilamb is getting at is we have a link to the list of coaches in the team navbox now which is how the hockey project handles coaches typically as opposed to separate navboxes. -DJSasso (talk) 17:41, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, all makes sense to me. Can I suggest when doing the deletions that you link to that first WP:FOOTY discussion instead of the general page.

And, if the editor returns, we can always undelete to his or her sandbox, correct?--Doug Mehus T·C 21:45, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Seoul Metropolitan Subway stations

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was no consensus. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 22:49, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This massive (31kb) template is used to show links for every single station of this subway system. There are several problems with this. One, there is no need to navigate from one station article to the articles of every station on the same lines - that is what categories are for. (The adjacent stations and line are shown with an unrelated template, which suffices for navigation.) Second, the wrapper template is limited to 20 subtemplates, and this subway system has more than 20 lines.

I personally believe this template should be deleted outright. However, if navlinks are absolutely necessary, then this needs to be broken up into templates for each line, which can then be added individually: {{some wrapper template |1={{Seoul Line 1 navlinks}} |2={{Seoul Line 6 navlinks}} }} Pi.1415926535 (talk) 17:22, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Closing admin question for the nominator; you say that you think a wrapper template would suffice, but this is in essence what this template is doing; if you look at any of the articles linked here you will likely see a {{{line1|yes}}} or similar parameter, which will then only display that line's information. Mackensen's suggestion to delete this template and recreate the individual templates seems rather pointless if we can simply have them all in one location for ease of updating. Primefac (talk) 13:09, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete/divvy into individual templates (and then apply WP:BIDIRECTIONAL as appropriate). I'm not a fan of navboxes having any 'complex' logic (which includes selection of certain groups); these templates should be relatively trivial to display and update for any old user. (A similar template at Template:Final Fantasy was much worse and finally fixed.) --Izno (talk) 14:27, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I think the current way of handling it is appropriate. The entire navbox isn't actually displayed anywhere so the size issue isn't that large. While making it easier to edit is a noble goal I don't think it's actually a big aid. Updating links is still just as easy, which is what almost all navbox changes are and the ease of adding more sections is by far weighed out by having to use an additional template to have it combine properly. Someone failing at combining the navboxes directly impact the readers while someone struggling to add another section doesn't. If theres a way to combine certain navboxes If stacked on top of eachother that would be great, but I don't believe that is possible. ‑‑Trialpears (talk) 07:47, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment "One, there is no need to navigate from one station article to the articles of every station on the same lines - that is what categories are for" -- the categories cannot show the relative position of stations (not just adjacent stations) on a line, merely in alaphabetic order. This argument is very weak, tens of thousands of templates will be deleted if this argument is allowed to stand at all languages. The line templates easily show the geographical characteristic of a line in a much simpler way than lists in articles (unless you are not familar with said region). ibicdlcod (talk) 12:10, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I don't know the reason to keep/delete, so I'll just defer to Trialpears and say, "per him or her." This seems like a very nice template—especially the subway line colour-coded numbers. It's a bit detailed and maybe could be pruned somewhat, but the editors can handle that. Doug Mehus T·C 21:48, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Virtually unused obsolete template. Currently six portals use this; which is down from at least several dozen. Those that did use this got resigned to the MfD dumpster, at least partially because newbies were "nominating" new articles on unwatched sub-sub-pages instead of being bold. Replace with Template:Random portal component. Mark Schierbecker (talk) 04:05, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't know if that would solve the problem of newbies not knowing to update the transclusion counter. But also who's going to put time into implementing it? Rebuilding this template wouldn't be a significant concern for those who want to save portals at MfD. Mark Schierbecker (talk) 19:32, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I see no issue with this template. If the portal has a dedicated instructions page we may as well use it. I would support a merger or rename if proposed, but really who cares. It's barely used and most, if not all, portals will probably be deleted. Feel free to return here when it's unused though. ‑‑Trialpears (talk) 11:13, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep Seems duplicative of other portal header templates. That said, I can see no real Earth shattering reason to delete it. Thus, I propose keeping it for now, with the usual proviso that this is without prejudice to renominating it in the future if under-utilized and/or not cleaned up; however, I would also add that I'd like to see it renamed, without leaving a redirect. The titling of this template is very bad. It needs both clarity and concision. Doug Mehus T·C 21:54, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Insufficient complexity of markup to warrant a template, plus used only on a bunch of modules I am also nominating for deletion. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:53, 25 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What a template is simple is not a reason to be deleted, there are many templates that are simpler than this and that are very useful. I have added the documentation. My template does its function and enough. Do you want to give you examples of other simpler templates? Jmarchn (talk) 22:20, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
