No transclusions. Line 1, Ho Chi Minh City Metro uses {{RouteBox}}. The city has only one and a half metro lines, so this template is probably not needed yet. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:28, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No transclusions or incoming links from discussions to explain why it exists. Created in April 2024. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:25, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Don't you think it should be given more time for someone to use it, @Jonesey95. I don't see the need for these robotic nominations for well-documented and properly working templates and modules. Ponor (talk) 13:28, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not robotic at all. I am ignoring or deciding not to nominate many unused templates when making these nominations. This one has been around for three months. That's long enough to have found at least one usage, or to be linked to from a discussion explaining why it is useful. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:32, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's a general purpose template, to be used in other templates; a generalized version of Switch parser function. It won't be transcluded. Give it a year. Ponor (talk) 13:46, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Settlement infobox templates

The result of the discussion was keep. It is WP:SNOWing. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 20:36, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Infobox country and Template:Infobox political division with Template:Infobox settlement.
This will be a controversial proposal, but I think {{Infobox political division}} should be merged into {{Infobox settlement}}, while {{Infobox country}} should also be merged into, or at least become a wrapper for that template, because those three templates share many similar parameters with each other and because 'Template:Infobox political division' has the most parameters out of the three and is therefore the most flexible. I also think 'Template:Infobox settlement' should then be redesigned to look more like 'Template:Infobox country' does now, because the latter template looks much nicer in my opinion than the former one. PK2 (talk; contributions) 09:33, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pls no....simply a nightmare for content editors ....we already have a problem with too many parameters that cause many edit wars. We have been going in the opposite direction to avoid problems like with Template:Infobox micronation. Moxy🍁 12:13, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Slight oppose @Moxy: Personally, I don't want the country infobox to be merged with the infobox for settlements. I have a more moderate proposal. How about merging Template:Infobox settlement with Template:Infobox political division? Perhaps Template:Infobox former subdivision could be considered for merging as well? Let just leave Template:Infobox country as it is for now. RyanW1995 (talk) 12:58, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No and close this now: Per Moxy's reasoning. This seems like unnecessary change just for wanting to have change. We should also be discussing these things with such highly-used templates elsewhere first before directing every single person on an article about a country or settlement here. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 12:59, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • No - for the reason Moxy has stated.
GeographicAccountant (talk) 12:59, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, for reasons previously mentioned and because not all human settlements are political divisions, thereby creating confusion. An Errant Knight (talk) 13:21, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, as per all above. Duke of New Gwynedd (talk | contrib.) 13:29, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Too many parameters already, as Moxy stated. Cedar Tree 14:59, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
God no - For all the above reasons. Don't try to fix what's not broken. EmilePersaud (talk) 15:20, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
oppose, per reasons above, too many parameters ⇒ Zhing-Za, they/them, 16:05, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No. Keep how it is. As per reasons stated above by editor Moxy. Nubia86 (talk) 12:50, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Strong no as per reasons stated above. There is nothing wrong with the existing templates imo, and they seem to work well enough on their respective pages. Goodreg3 (talk) 20:07, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
