The result of the discussion was Withdrawn. Per Resolute below, and the fact that as people will edit these templates and thus make them useful this big list is going to become unwieldy. Will split still-unused templates into more focused groups and relist. - Mobius Clock 09:33, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

All of the above templates are navboxes or navigational sidebars which contain either no active links at all, or so few as to render having a navbox pointless. These are all I could get from the report on unused templates, I'm sure there will be more when/if I can get access to the full list! Would someone with AWB access be able to go through and tag all the templates? It'd take me forever; thanks in advance.

• You may be right about most of these, but I'd specifically like to see ((Bangli Regency)) kept. I know the editor who created it from id:wp and it's all done in good faith and, ultimately, this template will fill with blue links as the project expands coverage of an area I know personally, Bangli Regency. And see w:id:Templat:Kabupaten Bangli, the corresponding template on id:wp. I wrote that template and most of the many others like it on id:wp; the links are all blue and, eventually, en:wp will have coverage of these very lovely places, too.

A template with a name longer than the text it creates? Pretty much the definition of pointless. Apparently supposed to be a colour template for election results or suchlike, but another template already exists for this party (seemingly with useful content), so definitely no need for this.

Template:BLP IMDB refimprove (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Template:BLP IMDB-only refimprove (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

These seem an effort to dodge the view that imdb is not a reliable source. Absent a consensus for these to exist, they would be best deleted. Jack Merridew 03:43, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is clearly not going to delete and I'm withdrawing the nomination. My concern is with the terminology and will discuss that. I see that a lot of the intent here is better communication about issues I agree with. Sincerely, Jack Merridew 20:25, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's incorrect. The template "BLP IMDB-only refimprove" was developed by me and others in discussion at wt:URBLP. It is designed as a complement to existing ((BLP refimprove)), to enable one to identify that usage of IMDB is itself an issue among the sources used, in a BLP article. It includes the entire message given in BLP refimprove, plus it adds mention of there being issue with use of IMDB. There are now more than 500 articles tagged with it or related template "BLP IMDB refimprove". This TFD seems like a mistake, a misunderstanding. --doncram (talk) 03:57, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy Keep plz. Current methods have not been entirely successful at getting across the message that IMDB is not a reliable source. Whilst there may be an argument to change the wording of this template, it does enable us to shift the communication from us saying "this has no source" and the author and readers understanding "someone has slapped a nasty template on this article without noticing it does indeed have a source". To us saying "this is sourced from IMDB, which is a problem because IMDB contains unverified content", and thereby perhaps prompting the author or readers of the article to add a better source. It also enables us to identify and talk to the editors who keep using IMDB this way. ϢereSpielChequers 04:42, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• (ec)Keep. First, I created the template to re-enforce the idea that IMDB was an unreliable source, so I'm not sure why you are saying I'm trying to dodge that. Second, there is unfortunately no consensus (see User:LiberalFascist/IMDb) that IMDB is unreliable (IMO IMDB is unreliable for anything but screen credits), so this is an attempt to make a ((BLP sources)) type tag stick, even if everything in the article was attributed to IMDB.  — Joshua Scott (LiberalFascist) 04:47, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• I view articles sporting imdb as worse than unsourced. To some, not ya'll above (?), imdb is just peachy. I believe unsourced articles are *bad* and that such templates offer wiggle-room on the binary question of sourced/unsourced. I've only glanced at wt:URBLP (will read it tomorrow). I can see a value in categorizing pages using imdb-only, so maybe adding a mechanism to the established templates would be worth considering. nb: the use of 'refimprove' in the names of these templates implies that articles sporting them are, in fact, referenced, just not as well as they should be; contrast this with templates using the term 'unsourced' and 'unreferenced', which is more apt. Cheers, Jack Merridew 04:57, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep -- If a source is indicated, then the article is not unsourced. My understanding is that there is no consensus on IMDB either way, but that it is generally accepted for screen credits, which are not based on user submissions. Maurreen (talk) 05:45, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep -- I am not sure how the nom feels this is an effort to dodge the fact that IMDb is not a reliable source. I feel it is just the opposite. With all the discussions on unsourced BLPs, editors were changing tags from 'unsourced' just because there was an IMDb link, but (IMO) info may have still needed further verification. (Sorry, I know some supported this.) We all know that IMDb is often unreliable, and this makes is very clear. Hasn't the characterization of IMDb-only articles as "unsourced" already been discussed ad nauseum? Keep, keep keep. --Logical Fuzz (talk) 14:20, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Possibly Merge It may be possible to merge both into ((BLP IMDB refimprove)) with an "only=yes" parameter to show the only version of the text. -- WOSlinker (talk) 15:11, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy keep This is an experiment that has a potentially valuable outcome. The project this is a part of should decide when it is no longer required. And for the purpose of experiment do not merge yet. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:30, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • While I agree that these should be kept, I fail to see how merging the two substantially similar templates will affect any experiment; care to clarify? - Mobius Clock 22:51, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • I have no objection to merging them together, but there are already a substantial number (hundreds) tagged, so we probably would need a bot to go through and change one to the other. Seems like a waste to go through all that effort, especially if we later want to put them in separate categories, or something similar.  — Joshua Scott (LiberalFascist) 23:48, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • No objection to a bot changing one into an option of another, but to make it easier for the taggers it is easier to have two templates than a template with options. ϢereSpielChequers 07:55, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        • Options about programming, to combine the programming that delivers the two IMDB-related tags or to allow other sources to be identified, should happen at Template talk:BLP refimprove, I suggest. IMDB is not the only source which some/many regard as unreliable, that is worth tracking as a general issue for BLP articles. --doncram (talk) 15:34, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
          • The basic point of having two tags is that on some articles, the IMDB source might be more or less extra. If the article has other and better sources, losing it would likely not be critical. But if IMDB is the only source, any problems with IMDB are more of a problem for the article. And if the IMDB source is removed, the article changes from being sourced (even if weakly) to being unsourced. Maurreen (talk) 16:32, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
