Delete. There are other emoji related templates. On a side note, this one was created by a user who joined to create this and some random shortcuts, renamed their username, blanked their page and seemingly quit. Very odd editing pattern. Gonnym (talk) 10:52, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete even if it were used. Sidebars take way too much of screen real-estate and these topics usually already have an infobox in that place, needlessly making the top of the screen crowded. Gonnym (talk) 19:02, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unused citation template. Gonnym (talk) 10:45, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hmm. If this is unused, it's only because someone substituted all the uses of it. AZBilliards is one of our most frequently cited pool news sources. It may be that we don't need a template for it, if no one's going to use it henceforth, but this used to be used (I know, since I was using it) and I'm not certain this wasn't just mass-subst'd by someone a while back without any discussion (e.g. at WT:CUE).  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  10:57, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That sounds like a very likely scenario. Part of the reason behind this cleanup is to inform template creator's (and other interested parties) that a template that might have been used was removed. Let me know if you plan on reusing it so I'll withdraw my nomination. Gonnym (talk) 11:44, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I used it quite a bit, I usually substitute it though. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 23:59, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I also use it, and don't subst it, but if people would rather it be subst'd, we can add that "should be substituted" notice to its documentation. Since it's in active use by at least two editors, I'm going with keep.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  04:48, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. I made this when the North American Stallions football team was still believed to be competing as independents, but information came out midway through the 2023 season that they had actually joined a conference, so it's no longer necessary.

No transclusions or incoming links. Created in 2006. – Jonesey95 (talk) 02:13, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It was one of the first templates to do that mapping, created in 2006 and fully documented at that time (and the best way). Further templates are more poorly documented, sometimes incomplete. It has been used a lot, but visibly bots have replaced its uses by other templates. If there are no incoming links, it's because it was designed to be "substed". Other templates do not offer that. The reason of its existence was the fact that many browsers at that time did not recognize all X11/CSS3 color names (and there are still some browsers implementing them incoherently). It was made as a simple helper to convert pages and may still be usefu; notably with subst.
Note: NEVER not post notices inside the code transcluded by the template: such notices should be inside the "noinclude" section, without introducing any newlines in the transcluded part. I move your notice to the existing noinclude section. When a template has a do page, you should place it in that doc page instead of modifying the template code! The way you did it broke the template (and all its examples shown on the doc page!). Be careful. verdy_p (talk) 05:23, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you have an issue with how notices are placed, bring it up at Wikipedia talk:Templates for discussion and WP:Twinkle. Placing the template in a noinclude tag prevents the notice from appearing on transcluding pages, which it's designed to be. Gonnym (talk) 08:23, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Verdy p, I used Twinkle to place the notice. If there are other templates that do the same thing as this one but worse, please link to them here so that they can be merged. As for the template being substed, if it is intended as a subst-only template, it should be labeled as such using {{subst only}}. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:46, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Twinkle is wrong here. It cannot arbitrarily place contents in templates (because it beraks the templates). This MUST be done inside their "noinclude" section (usually where the documentation template is inserted), or inside its /doc subpage if there's one; if there's none, a "noinclude" section must be created to place the banner, without adding any newline before or after it (because it also breaks these templates that would transclude this newline, especially here where the template is intended to be used only inline, but as well when these are block templates, to avoid introducing paragraphs, or breaking lists). Don't trust "easy" tools that make things incorrectly, you are still responsible of your edits, even when using such tools, and fix it instantly before applying/saving your changes.
Placing such banner in a "noinclude" section of templates is the appropriate thing; it does not hide the template, the notice is present (and still tracked appropriately in tracking categories). There's no reason to also "spam" the banner everywhere the template may be used, possibly many times (making things worse on pages using it, if the template is substituted as it was documented). There's absoluetly no need to transcude even tracking category in those pages, tracking the template page only is always sufficient: pages referencing such templates are listed by Mediawiki itself (Special:WhatLinksHere in the sidebar).
Also note that this template was designed in 2006, and other labeling templates in its doc page were not existing at that time. And the existing doc was clearly showing that "subst" was fully supported (without being necessarily required: this is not a "subst-only" template, used for example in talk pages for their historic archiving), so such labelling is superfluous. verdy_p (talk) 15:54, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Instead of waging this one-man wall of text war on this page where no one sees it, you could bring up your points in one of the other venues I listed. And yes, placing a notification inside noinclude tags hides it on every place a template is used. Regarding the inline comment, there is an option in the template that doesn't break these templates, but when a template is unused, this really doesn't matter.
