Template:Infobox Babylon 5 character (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

With the exception of the in-universe trivia, which can be removed, this is redundant to ((infobox character)). Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) - talk 21:02, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:GLAM Article (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused; looks like test code that was never deployed. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) - talk 19:55, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Okay, I just realised that it is meant for substing. Since that's the case, Keep as a good example of a useful template. Nyttend (talk) 23:13, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Subject bar (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Little-used variant of the existing sisterlinks system which causes inconsistency, requires editors to have to decide to use one or the other, and places portals in the wrong section (they should be in the see also section, not in a footer).

The result of the discussion was Keep. No consensus for delete. However, there seems to be a consensus that using this template solves some layout problems. NAC Fleet Command (talk) 15:52, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Portal-inline (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Little-used portal variant. Any minor wins in article layout on very short articles are contrary to the problems with inconsistency (not to mention WP:MOSICON) introduced by having several ways to lay out the same information.

The result of the discussion was Keep. The main consensus for keeping seems to be "I like it" but there is even less consensus for deletion. NAC. Fleet Command (talk) 15:56, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Portal bar (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

this is just a more distracting layout for ((portal box)). It doesn't make sense to have two competing layouts for the same thing, especially when the right-floating version has been used exclusively for years now. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) - talk 18:36, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Use the ((Clear)) to prevent "sprawling into the next section", and prepend a : to left justify. Also consider if the portal links are appropriate. Portals were initially linked to only from key subject articles, now they are widely used,it seems to me, as advertisements for WikiProjects. Rich Farmbrough, 10:44, 6 July 2011 (UTC).[reply]
I've long employed Template:Clear as a half measure to solve the sprawl, but it leads to new aesthetic problems, such as excessive white space where an an article is left blank. Template:Clear has it's uses, but at times, new solutions are called for. Template:Portal bar is one such. --Cast (talk) 19:02, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • If the layout doesn't look good, it may just need fixing. That's not a reason to delete the template. It may also be worth seeing if the ((Subject bar)) template (also suggested for deletion) handles it the same way. – VisionHolder « talk » 22:03, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • VisionHolder is right. It needs a bit of tweaking for that much portal entries. But deletion for such a small issue, is unwarranted. As a general rule, not every template is good for every situation; a certain degree of care is required for every template. Fleet Command (talk) 13:34, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Say what? (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Under-used template. No transclusions. Redundant to actual editing. The effort it takes to add this tag is only a little less than it takes to rephrase a problem sentence oneself. LordVetinari 13:38, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicates a better infobox at Template:Infobox school district. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:28, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Two fields in the Template:Infobox School district or an appropriate improvement for:
| image          = 
| image caption  = 
should be added to infobox Template:Infobox school district. I have added a request at Template talk:Infobox school district.
SBaker43 (talk) 04:04, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Just to note that while these are nice things to have (or seem to be), that the template proposed for deletion isn't actually used suggests that this needn't be a prerequisite for redirection. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) - talk 06:31, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have responded to the above request by User:SBaker43 at Template talk:Infobox school district#Image fields. Cheers, theFace 10:33, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:PD-art-uk (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This had been re-directed to PD-art , but I'm not so sure. Hence I've re-instated the template with a minor wording change.

However, I'm not sure a license tag vs a restriction tag is the best way of handling images from sources that are less favourable to PD-art terms.

Hence this TFD nom to try to 'settle the matter'... Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:59, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
