Delete. Probably a joke edit; not used, no category, no stub template format. Her Pegship (?) 23:57, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Cat nav 10years (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Another clumsy-format chronology category header template which is superfluous to newer, better alternatives using {{Navseasoncats}} (Navseasoncats and its two-row siblings are now the de facto standard for chronology categories, used in over 540,000 categories). The last sets of categories using this template were Category:Courts and tribunals by year of establishment and Category:Mosques by year of completion, for which I have deployed new parameterless cathead templates: {{Courts and tribunals established in year category header}}, and {{Mosques completed in year category header}}.

Similar redundant cathead templates have been deleted at TFD, e.g. at WP:TFD/2019 March 7#Template:Cat_topic_in_year and WP:TFD/2019 August 12#Template:10years. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:33, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging participants in the two discussions linked above: @Tom.Reding, Slambo, Jayjg, Trialpears, and Blaixx. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:07, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Replace with {{Navseasoncats}}. @BrownHairedGirl: if any {{Navseasoncats}} adjustments are needed please ping me - if minor I can update. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 19:40, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, @Tom.Reding. All uses have already been replaced, so {{Cat nav 10years}} is now unused. No updates needed for {{Navseasoncats}} as a result of this ... but if you have a wee bit of time, it would be great if you could Lua-ify {{Navseasoncats with decades below year}} so that it can be parameterless, like the brilliant job you did with {{Navseasoncats with centuries below decade}}. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:47, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - I'm pretty sure I did that at Module:Navseasoncats with centuries below decade/sandbox 5 months ago. --Gonnym (talk) 22:18, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Gonnym, that doesn't look to me like a decades below module. Am I missing something? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 22:29, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      - That's the magic of re-using code :). I left a message on Tom's talk page in March about it but nothing came of it. --Gonnym (talk) 06:38, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Replace (merge) as before. Jayjg ^(talk) 20:17, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Redundant indeed. No transclusions. --Bsherr (talk) 01:25, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox death

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 merge to Template:Infobox event. Izno (talk) 20:48, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox death (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Infobox event (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Infobox death with Template:Infobox event.
Convert usages and delete. Most articles for deaths use {{Infobox event}} anyway, which is for this purpose and supports the required parameters, and the 6 articles that use this use params already supported by {{Infobox event}}. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 12:40, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The former appears to be a relatively recent fork of the latter. Merge per nom. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:36, 16 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per nom and WP:INFOCOL, unless there was some sort of careful consideration before forking that we're not aware of. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 02:39, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per WP:INFOCOL and WP:REDUNDANTFORK. --Soumya-8974 ^talk _contribs ^subpages 18:12, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per above. ~ HAL333 01:47, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
