Unused and this template won't ever be used because the MedCom has shut down so there is no point marking this template as "historical". Pkbwcgs (talk) 18:40, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:2018 China League Two North table, Template:2018 China League Two South table and Template:2018 China League Two Overall table to Template:2018 China League Two tables.

Why not use one template instead of three by using ((Multiple sports table preview)) like Template:2019 AFC Asian Cup group tables? Here is an example:Template:2019 China League Two tables . Hhkohh (talk) 15:03, 20 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Serves no purpose. Is used on about 25–30 pages, but to no encyclopedic end. No one needs to be alerted with a giant banner to the fact that an article here has a title different from how some other party would name it, nor why. This was – until just now – a lingering vestige of the efforts of a faction shilling for an off-site organization to impose their erstwhile naming convention on Wikipedia (the author of this template was updating the IOC website with "progress" reports on getting it to be an "official Wikipedia standard", until the WP:BIRDCON RfC shut that stuff down). This disused template was still reflecting that WP:BATTLEGROUND and WP:SOAPBOX mentality (directly against WP:CONLEVEL policy as well as the RfC results) four years later, so I revised it to neutrally address facts and policy.

However, I now realize that it doesn't have any useful function. We have no reason to create banner templates announcing why an article is at the title it's at; the rationales for a title here vary widely, case-by-case, and are recorded in WP:RM discussions. The template's quasi-purpose, even after cleanup, is therefore entirely redundant. There does not appear to be a single analogue of this template anywhere else on Wikipedia, not even for things that actually are internationally and near-universally accepted standards (which the IOC bird list is not), such as various ISO and ITU, etc. standards. It's just not something we do, much less need banner tags about. The closest thing I can think of is Template:IUPAC spelling, but it's very different: it's instructing editors to use a particular spelling system when writing that article, so it does serve an encyclopedic, editorial function.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  18:28, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

unused after I replaced them in Georgia's 11th congressional district where they were causing formatting problems. Frietjes (talk) 19:22, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. See brief discussion at my talk page, as well as the history of Georgia's 6th congressional district, Georgia's 11th congressional district, and Georgia's 14th congressional district for background. (I'm not sure what formatting problems were being caused by these templates before, but the deletion notice is certainly causing them now...) I still believe that using templates like these is better than using adhoc tables, but I don't have the energy to convince users like GoldRingChip of that. —Gordon P.
