- Template:Country data Georgia (disambiguation) (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:Country data Congo (disambiguation) (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Quoting myself from the requested move regarding these templates: It doesn't make sense to me for these to carry "(disambiguation)" qualifiers; if their purpose is to alert editors they've attempted to use an ambiguous template name, and to keep templates for the wrong topics being used in articles, then they need to be at the base name. Right now, Template:Country data Georgia redirects to Template:Country data Georgia (country), but there is also Template:Country data Georgia (U.S. state). Likewise, Template:Country data Congo redirects to Template:Country data Republic of the Congo, but there is also Template:Country data Democratic Republic of the Congo. Doesn't seem like having a primary topic here makes sense.
There was concern that moving these disambiguation templates to the base name would break a lot of transclusions that would need to be fixed, which I understand, but these seem pretty useless if they are to carry the "(disambiguation)" qualifier. So either move as originally proposed and fix the templates, or delete (see RM discussion). Mdewman6 (talk) 18:26, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
- delete, agree. so long as Template:Country data Congo redirects to Template:Country data Republic of the Congo and Template:Country data Georgia redirects to Template:Country data Georgia (country), these are pointless. Frietjes (talk) 20:33, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

- Comments. Hatnotes have been installed on all four Country data templates' doc pages, as well as on the two redirects. So the two barely useful pages with the "disambiguation" qualifiers are safe to delete if that is the consensus. In cases like this, hatnotes should suffice to convey the ambiguities to editors. P.I.

- Keep I believe that the templates sould be moved nonetheless, as there is no primary topic in either case. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 15:26, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

- Well, I used it in this diff, but for the life of me, I have absolutely no idea why
{{!}}wouldn't work for it. 17½ minutes later, a space was all that was needed in that context. So let's give this the speedy delete end it deserves. VanIsaac, GHTV contWpWS 01:43, 28 July 2023 (UTC) - Delete per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 23:49, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
