These three unused templates are redundant to {{pp}}. See the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Protection policy. – Jonesey95 (talk) 23:46, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect / Delete No point having duplicate templates to maintain especially when I am not aware of a single page which has been office protected (I am only aware of it through the policy page), so its not as if they are used often either. Terasail[✉️] 00:16, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    On second thought, I think these templates should be left as they are. The module which creates these appears to directly check which template is being called in order to serve the correct banner and since they are individually selected based on which template is transcluded it is probably best to keep things the way they are unless a better solution is provided (I am not the best with modules so I may have misunderstood the nuance of the module here though). Terasail[✉️] 00:30, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as module creator. You could say the same for all the protection templates implemented by Module:Protection banner; they are all essentially the same template, with different default arguments. So you can write {{pp-vandalism|office}}, and it will behave exactly the same as {{pp-office}}. This means that it doesn't make sense to nominate just {{pp-reset}}, {{pp-office}} and {{pp-office-dmca}} for being redundant to {{pp}}, as there are other protection templates that behave in exactly the same way. See here for the full list. I can see the argument that making people write {{pp|vandalism}} is cleaner than allowing them to write both {{pp|vandalism}} and {{pp-vandalism}}, but getting rid of the ability to write {{pp-vandalism}} etc. is going to require at least a few bots to be updated. This seems like a lot of hassle for little appreciable gain. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 10:09, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all I agree with Mr. Stradivarius on the general principle of pp-xx wrappers being useful, but not when they are unused. I would also support removing these from the module as well, for the same reason. In the extremely unlikely event that a page gets protected as an office action and a protection banner is needed, one can be created manually. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:08, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete reset and office-dcma, keep office. I agree that we shouldn't have templates that are unused (or so rarely used as these clearly are), but I think there is probably value in having a basic version of pp which indicates the office angle. Having specific items for "we blanked the page" and "we blanked the page because of copyvio" are, however, entirely unnecessary. Izno (talk) 03:57, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete reset and office-dcma, keep office I don't believe any of these templates have ever been used judging from User:WMFOffice protection log which only has one entry from the Fram incident. Of course there are other accounts that could have performed office actions, but it at least shows us that it's incredibly rare. That being said I feel like it's appropriate to have at least some support for office protection in case they they want to use it. --Trialpears (talk) 04:34, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete both I am as usual opposed to the idea of giving unused content a second shot at life because it's in a template - if it were truly desired by the editors of the article(s) Useddennim suggested it could belong on it wouldn't have become unused. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:08, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Even though it is now transcluded at List of railway lines in Bangladesh I'm opposed to adding these maps to general list articles as that can lead to unnecessary bloat. Gonnym (talk) 12:19, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Comment on the general case of being unused, I find that statement untrue, as a zeaolous edit-warrior could just remove them without people noticing; which is how we end up with duplicate templates. Thus templates become used, but were useful, and should have been used.. This is not a keep opinion in this case. I just find the general statement to be rather a poor reason for deletion. -- 64.229.90.199 (talk) 06:39, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Tagging with {{transclusionless}} is abusing that system. Route templates are not articles and should not be linked to. They are templates that should be transcluded into articles. If no article wants to transclude them, that tends to be a sign these are unwanted or offer no real value. Gonnym (talk) 10:20, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
