Current discussions[edit]

June 12

Template:Mile High

Navbox with one blue link in body. DB1729talk 03:55, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Docpng

This template hasn't been used since at latest 2018 (which is when the string docpng was added, a search for which basically turns up empty for something like this template). A gallery whether tag or template is a sufficient functional equivalent. Izno (talk) 03:34, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:IASTText

Ancient template with no uses in article space but apparently intended for article space. May also not be not particularly relevant with the evolution of policy/guideline onwiki. Izno (talk) 02:25, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Navbox with one link in the body DB1729talk 23:21, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unused sub page that was removed in this edit. Gonnym (talk) 16:13, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Summer Paralympics by year category navigation

Until these were created, ((Category series navigation)) was used on these categories and did the same thing. The addition of more links isn't needed as using if you really want all links, just use the parent category. Gonnym (talk) 10:11, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:NavigationFinnishChampionsFigureSkatingPairs

Totally gross sea of redlinks; ergo, an unhelpful template. Bgsu98 (Talk) 22:41, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: This has 7 blue links so it can be useful. Just remove all red links. Or this can be merged without red links to Template:Finnish Figure Skating Championships as it duplicates the event years already anyways. Gonnym (talk) 12:08, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I left the other three discipline templates (men, women, ice dance) alone, because those were predominately blue links. There is little chance that the red links on this template will ever be developed. Bgsu98 (Talk) 01:07, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Bugmenot

Template:Foreign relations of the DPR and LPR

The DPR and LPR were puppet states of Russia and had no foreign relations. Aldij (talk) 12:06, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete They did have recognition from a few other countries, although, looking at Donetsk People's Republic–South Ossetia relations, sourcing doesn't seem to be of the quality you'd want to write good standalone articles that go further than "X officially recognized Y". The navboxes have four and two links respectively, so not great, although there's no objection to recreating them if more articles can be written (hopefully with better sources).

I don't find anything worthwhile saving in these documentation pages that need to be redirected. These are all the same boilerplate copy/paste versions that have no actual added value. Gonnym (talk) 09:22, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subterm and Subdefn

These templates were meant to be visual sub-terms and sub-definitions in structured ((Glossary))s. They didn't add semantic sub-structuring, only indented their equivalent terms & definitions. They were only used in Waveguide filter#Glossary, but I replaced them with nested ((glossary))+((term))+((defn)) inside their defining ((defn)), producing a near-identical indentation, plus semantic structure. They are now unused, and probably shouldn't be used (TemplateStyles on the glossary, or term/defn templates, would satisfy any potential need). the template.  — sbb (talk) 08:42, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Challenges

Project hasn't been active around 14 years and usages of this banner are being incorrectly applied to articles that involved "challenges". The dead project has no categories or any usage for this banner. Gonnym (talk) 08:21, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Gbq/doc

The ((Gbq)) template was simply a wrapper for ((Quote)) with some specified inline styles (specifically, reduced vertical margins). It was intended for use in structured ((Glossary))s. It was only ever used correctly once, in Glossary of Brazil investigative terms. All other ~6 uses in article space were used in ((efn)) for condensed spacing (which I replaced with the equivalent ((quote|style="..."))). I have edited ((Glossary)) to use TemplateStyles, which has allowed the use of ((quote)) inside of glossary ((Defn)) templates to be formatted exactly as ((Gbq)) was formatted. I.e., TemplateStyles has obsoleted the need for the style-only wrapper ((Gbq)) around ((quote)). ((Gbq)) is now a redirect to ((quote)).

Merged into ((coatrack)) since [2]. Their names falsely imply that they will still display a more biology-related notice. In reality, they are just unused redirects. Only mentions are basically Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Template_redirects and other lists. 184.146.170.127 (talk) 03:59, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This should be completely uncontroversial, but from a purely clerical standpoint template redirects should be at RfD and not TfD. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:01, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, though I'll chime in here in favor of delete in case it's not moved/reopened as an RfD. We don't need weird redirects lingering around that are not in actual use.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  12:53, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Detailed MENA topic

Unused fork of Template:Middle East topic. If there is need to add more locations to the general template, it should be brought on the talk page and if it has consensus, it should be added. This fork is unnecessary. Gonnym (talk) 06:14, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Read the docs or look at the code. They function differently and are suited to different topics.
"Detailed MENA topic" has a separate topic and join (in, by, from, etc.).
(topic)-(join)-COUNTRY
Whereas the "Middle East topic" templates has a suffix
(prefix) - COUNTRY - (suffix)
If I make that change to the existing template it will possibly brake pages it's used on, but this is a is a useful different way of doing it.
Also, I intend to expand it. MENA = middle east and North Africa. It's too much to add to the Middle East template (there are probably situations where people don't want Morocco, Tunisia, etc.) MWQs (talk) 09:47, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Middle East topic is a neat little simple template that's useful in some situations, the detailed one is different. MWQs (talk) 09:54, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please give an an example of topic of articles that will only work with your version and not with Template:Middle East topic. Gonnym (talk) 15:09, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Topics was maybe the wrong way to phrase it.
One thing it can do currently is automatically link a main page in the title, as well as "in the middle east" instead of needing to do a custom title or manke a redirect.
But it would also mean I could modify it to try multiple joins, e.g. of / from / in / etc.

Both of these templates do the same thing except ((if both)) is configurable. We should merge them to avoid needlessly duplicated functionality.

Oppose the templates don't do the same thing. ((both)) returns a truth value, while ((if both)) selects one of two values. Adding the ((both)) behavior to ((if both)) might cause unanticipated changes. Given the number of transclusions, I would exercise the precautionary principle and not merge them. — hike395 (talk) 15:15, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On the contrary, ((if both)) is a generalisation of ((both)) so they are very much the same. For all arguments p,q ((if both|p|q|1)) is exactly equivalent to ((both|p|q)). Nickps (talk) 16:29, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose and instead redirect ((if both)) -> ((if empty)) which it really is a pure subset of. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:31, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I can't see its a subset. ((if both)) prints parameter three if parameter one and two are non-empty, otherwise, it prints parameter four. ((if empty)) prints the first non-empty parameter. ? ((If empty)) should be renamed - its a misleading name Christian75 (talk) 09:39, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose merge. Given the already transpired snafu documented at VPT, I think we can expect unexpected side effects from merging these two oft transcluded templates, and the benefit does not seem to outweigh the cost, be it in errors or in editor time checking that every template transcluding one of these still functions as intended for each case.

Template:Infobox climber

Propose merging Template:Infobox climber with Template:Infobox mountaineer.
I think that Template:Infobox mountaineer could be handled by Template:Infobox climber. A lot of mountaineers do climbing and visa-versa. Infobox climber is the most important infobox (and the most detailed) and has the richest level of detail on their climbing/mountaineering career (I think infobox climber captures all of mountaineer career data. The mountaineer infobox items of "famous partnerships", "final ascent" and "retirement age" are subjective items). The main differences are around the non-climbing items that cand be just merged? Aszx5000 (talk) 16:34, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Noting also that we have been recently merging several mountaineering categories and climbing categories together such as Category:Works about climbing and mountaineering at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2024 May 26#Category:Works about mountaineering, amongst others.

Pinging User:Cullen328 who I have seen participate at climbing AfDs - @Cullen328, what do you think of my proposal? I have put a notice of this on at WikiProject page but no one has answered so far - are there any others who should be pinged? thanks. Aszx5000 (talk) 10:03, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Could you list the parameters that would need to be added or have different names? That would make it easier to see if these indeed have the same scope. Gonnym (talk) 11:23, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Aszx5000, I am not familiar with the details of the respective infobox parameters, but I agree that mountaineering and climbing are basically the same sport with many variations ranging from bouldering to high elevation expedition mountaineering. I think that it is counterproductive to try to separate it into two separate sports, so I am generally supportive of what you hope to accomplish. I am 72 years old and have not been an active mountaineer for about 15 years, so I am not current on recent developments in the sport. Cullen328 (talk) 15:06, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Gonnym, The disjoint of the parameter sets for these two templates appears to consist of the following: |main_discipline=, |other_discipline=, |start_discipline,=|height=, |weight =, |start_age =, |partnerships=, |website =, |typeofclimber =, |namedroutes =, |highestredpoint=, |highestonsight=, |highestboulder=, |apeindex=, |knownfor=, |worlds =, |final_ascent=, |medaltemplates=, |updated =, |partner=, |children =, |parents=, |relatives=, |firstascents=. Further, the following parameters would have to be aliased to one another: |retirement= and |retirement_age=; |notable_ascents= and |majorascents=.
That said, ((Infobox climber)) wraps ((Infobox sportsperson)), whereas ((Infobox mountaineer)) does not appear to, so many of the mountaineer parameters not present in the climber template may actually be inherited (the family stuff for sure).
Why not just wrap ((Infobox sportsperson)) with ((Infobox mountaineer)) instead of trying to realign everything here? How many articles have a problem where it's unclear which template is more appropriate for the subject? Both genuine questions for Aszx5000. Folly Mox (talk) 19:45, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that the way ((Infobox climber)) does so is the better way. I'm leaning support this merge unless someone has any valid objections. One thing though, when the merge happens, please make sure you use the correct naming conventions for parameters (snake case) and climber uses a mix of 4 different styles. Gonnym (talk) 21:34, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Would definitely keep ((Infobox climber)) as it has lots of good objective facts when used properly (e.g. Alexander Huber, Chris Sharma, Catherine Destivelle). The issue is that ((Infobox mountaineer)) has essentially the same 'biographical' facts (i.e. personal and family info) as ((Infobox climber)), but outside of 'notable ascents' (which is the 'major ascents' on ((Infobox climber))), the rest of the 'career' section are either not objective facts or not really notable things in mountaineering, and should be discarded. I would be happy to help guide any merge process (I am very active in WProj Climbing). Once done, there are a few more upgrades we want to make to ((Infobox climber)) to improve its usefulness. thanks to all above. Aszx5000 (talk) 11:23, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sm8900 (talk) 15:20, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The main problem I have with the style of this and similar s-x templates is that they are require editing the same information in each and very article they are used and their "transclusions" can't be tracked. With navboxes you just create it once then transclude it on all pages. You also get access to tools like Template:Check completeness of transclusions which can help track transclusions.

Template:Dag

Propose merging Template:Dag with Template:Dagger.
I'm going slightly more "discussion" with this TFD than anything, primarily thinking that ((dag)) should either be merged into ((dagger)) or renamed to make it more obvious as to why it's being used (though expanding the name might then make it longer than just typing out the <sup>...</sup> pair...). As it stands, ((dag)) by itself is potentially confusing (e.g. "what is a dag", or why it gives a superscript output) so I feel like something needs to be done. Primefac (talk) 14:40, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I find it strange that we still use archaic print notations instead of hyperlinked notes. How are either of those better than a regular ((efn)) note? Gonnym (talk) 15:04, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: The preferred option is to redirect ((dag)) to ((dagger)). Given its minimal use, merging simplifies matters. However, if retaining the functionality is crucial, renaming ((dag)) to "superscript-dagger" or "dagger-sup" would clarify its purpose, albeit making it longer.

Template:1998–99 SEC women's basketball standings

Unused women's college basketball standings templates. The articles these were probably used on were deleted in March (1998–99 Southeastern Conference women's basketball season, etc.). Gonnym (talk) 18:58, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:UK Television

No transclusions or incoming links from discussions that explain the reason for its creation. Created in January 2024. ((Media in the United Kingdom)) appears to do the job fine. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:51, 5 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]

Template:2023 NAIA independents football records

An unused empty table template. Gonnym (talk) 10:34, 5 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.

Template:XColor

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.

Template:Pedagogy sidebar

[edit]

Unused sidebar. Gonnym (talk) 08:23, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Then you can add it to other articles. Your nominations of late are nominating good useful templates without thinking they should be added to articles before going to Tfd. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 00:23, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't add templates to articles just because someone created a template with a link to it. If I feel it has no merit I send it here. If you want me to amend my nomination I will. Gonnym (talk) 16:25, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Primefac (talk) 12:06, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Amending nomination: A navigation template that was created 11 years ago and until now was unused and now is used on a single article. Navigation templates aren't helpful if they aren't used on the entire set. This seems like this template is apparently unwanted as it would have been used by now. Gonnym (talk) 16:27, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It was only removed from the main article on May 17. It was added in February. Only one edit removed it of late. This doesn't make it unwarranted and being used on one article doesn't make it a valid reason to delete. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 00:47, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Actually it does. This template is a navigation template, if isn't used anywhere, then there is no bi-directional navigation and it becomes pointless. If the other articles don't need it, then it just isn't useful. Gonnym (talk) 09:34, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Edit semi-protected

[edit]

Propose merging Template:Edit semi-protected with Template:Request edit.

As I have (surprisingly) recently discovered, this entire family of templates auto-detects the protection level of the template for which the edit request is being made. This means that an ((FPER)) placed on a template-protected template will result in exactly the same thing as a ((TPER)). Because of this, it seems to me that there is little reason to keep these all as separate templates, instead using the more obvious and reasonably-named ((request edit)) as the base template for this family (instead of the latter template being used as a dab for all five). Primefac (talk) 15:53, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have struck ((request edit)) since most of the participants feel it's not well-suited for the final target. Primefac (talk) 13:00, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
