The template is useless and adds nothing substantive while only appearing on 8 pages. There is no need for this navbox. Terasail[Talk] 20:33, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

These IPA help pages are not "information pages" in the sense intended by Template:Wikipedia information pages talk page editnotice, as there is no policy or guideline that they are summarizing, and thus the edit notice makes no sense. After deletion, these pages need to be salted, or else the bot will immediately recreate them. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:16, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

One usage on an RfC page, fully protected for some strange reason, not categorised (and no DS categories fit, because it's not really part of the ArbCom DS system of templates). Not really a 'template' either, its purpose seems to have been limited to that single RfC. Proposing subst+delete. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 17:04, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redundant to the new generic Template:YYYY in continent association football category header. All uses of the nominated category have been replaced with {{YYYY in continent association football category header}}. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:28, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As Sdkb stated on the talk, this template is ineffective and pointless. Most editnotices don't have this on their talk/main page, most people don't know about this template (indeed, it has 282 transclusions), and (in the few places it is used) it just adds to the useless talk page banners. Its purpose was apparently categorisation, which should be done in the editnotices templates themselves anyway. Perhaps it was useful when created, but due to how editnotices are used now, it becomes a bit of a rather pointless template with a logically flawed premise. For general tracking we have Special:PrefixIndex/Template:Editnotices/, and specific child templates may also have their own tracking cats.

Template:Main article list of WBC Muaythai national Champions[edit]

The template is not in use, has errors, and I believe has been abandoned. It appears to have been an attempt to separate the table from World Boxing Council Muaythai, but did not work, and other editors reverted and placed the table in that article. Additionally, the template as it currently is coded includes itself (mis-understanding of {main} I think), and fails to close the table it opens (showing up in a lint error report). —[AlanM1 (talk)]— 07:05, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was userfy. If updates to {{WarningsSmall}} are desired based on this "look", feel free to hold a discussion at that template's talk page. Primefac (talk) 16:18, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

One transclusion on a user page. Similar to the more widely used Template:WarningsSmall so as to be redundant. Bsherr (talk) 19:58, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
