Template:Indian Computing Olympiad (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This template lists the stages of the Indian Computing Olympiad, but one of the pages have been deleted, and the other two have been merged into the main article. The template is no longer used. StAnselm (talk) 20:54, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Attribution-Ubisoft (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The validity of the equivalent of this template over at Wikimedia Commons was discussed at length in several DRs. Finally, after Wikimédia France, the French local chapter of Wikimedia, directly contacted Ubisoft headquarters, Ubisoft clarified that they didn't intend release under a free license. Therefore this template will now be deleted on Commons, and all the images using it. For the recent DR and decision see Commons:Deletion_requests/Template:Attribution-Ubisoft_3 (warning - very long), for a short summing-up see Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard#Finally_an_answer_from_Ubisoft. It is now clear that the mail exchange with a PR person from Ubisoft Germany used to construct the "Attribution-Ubisoft" license was misinterpreted. This means that the template here at the English Wikipedia is invalid as well. Furthermore, it's necessary to delete locally stored images using this template except maybe some that still can be used under "fair use". As such a template is used in the Russian Wikipedia as well (ru:Шаблон:Attribution-Ubisoft), maybe a Russian-speaking Wikipedian can open a DR there?

• As one of Ru-sysop, I've fast redirected ru-wiki-template to our variant of non-free screenshot template. All uploaders and also Ru-WikiProject:Computer games have been informed about necessity of retagging/relicensing. Alex Spade (talk) 21:44, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

•  Note: "DR" means "Deletion request", the deletion process for everything over on Commons. --The Evil IP address (talk) 18:58, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, but as pointed at commons, pages or wikiprojects should be given time to migrate files that may be at fault into fair use images, if a rationale can be applied, or remove them or provide another one that may fill the rationale if the "Attribution-Ubisoft" does not (for example, fair use must be minimal by article, whereas freely licenced files may be used at any number, only limited by style concerns) MBelgrano (talk) 20:06, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• comment I see the tempalte has been edited to say that the images are NOT under a free license, why not keep it for this purpose, at least until all such images are either deleted or properly tagged for fair use. DES ^(talk) 17:30, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Template:Di-no license, after a grace period of a week (to allow retagging by anyone who wishes to do so. NW (Talk) 22:10, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete I would suggest a bot/AWB task to just replace this with ((Non-free game screenshot)) + a notice saying it was formerly tagged with this template and needs to be updated to meet the non-free content rules, and then just delete this template (name is misleading and no point in a dedicated non-free Ubisoft tag). May not even need a bot though, just a handfull of images here still using the template. The bigger job will be to properly tag all the images that currently reside on Commons and need to be imported back here. Not sure if we even have a good way to identify images used on enWp based on a category on Commons... --Sherool (talk) 23:45, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • No bots, no automated process of any kind. As I said, rules for non-free content are different from rules for free content (which is what those images were thought to be). Free images may be used at lists, for example. Someone must do the manual work of importing and re-tagging only the images that may have acceptable non-free rationales MBelgrano (talk) 11:40, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes I know all that, but don't think an automated replacement of the template would hurt if a second notice was also added for tracking purposes. Looks like someone has preempted this discussion though, this template is no longer used on any files now so I guess all that remain is to go though Category:Ubisoft Entertainment games and make sure there is no overuse in those articles... --Sherool (talk) 13:43, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  A moot point because this has apparently already removed from any images it was used on. –xeno^talk 18:48, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as not in use anymore. Somehow I figured it was too good to be true =) –xeno^talk 18:48, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete The license was not valid, and the template is no longer transcluded on any pages. Reach Out to the Truth 21:51, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - not a correct license, and any repurposing of the template is now moot. — Gavia immer (talk) 17:34, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:SW WMD (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Orphaned template; was once necessary to navigate between these various articles on Star Wars subjects, but they've all long since been merged into List of Star Wars superweapons. No current uses. Robofish (talk) 18:25, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Misleading navigation template with links that mostly go either to a common list page as mentioned in the nom, or to articles that only mention the link term in passing. --RL0919 (talk) 03:40, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Bausteindesign2 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Copied from de.wikipedia, where this is an important meta template. Only used in ((Lesenswert)), where it should be replaced with the more usual ((ambox)). The Evil IP address (talk) 12:58, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
