• Template:Maltese dogs (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

There's only one recognised Maltese dog breed, so a navbox has nowhere to navigate to. It's seriously unlikely that we will ever have articles on the other (unrecognised) Maltese breeds/types, the Kelb tal-But and Kelb tal-Kaċċa. The so-called Maltese breed has no verifiable connection to the Maltese islands. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 23:30, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:Middle-earth dwarves (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Since the recent spate of Middle-earth article mergers and deletions, the template is now much depleted, with only 3 named dwarves and 5 "related" entries. All the entries are also found in the main Lord of the Rings template, and none of the other "peoples" of Middle-earth (elves, men, etc) have a comparable template, so it seems time to let it go.

• Template:Moria (Middle-earth) (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Since the recent spate of Middle-earth article mergers and deletions, the template is now nearly empty (4 main entries, in three groups). All the entries are also found in the main Lord of the Rings template, and actually in the Middle-earth dwarves template as well, so it seems time to let it go.

• Template:Indo-European languages (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Little-used navbox created recently by a ban-evading sock. No edits by other editors and (as far as I could tell) no transclusions made by others. Used only on a handful of articles so far. Scope issues: at the moment, it has too few entries to be useful (only 8 links to major subfamilies); if it were to be expanded to cover individual languages, it would become too large (corresponding navboxes for each individual subfamily are already quite big).

• Delete per nom. --Soumyabrata (talk • subpages) 12:22, 1 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep and add back to articles. I think that's a rather neat navbox for the top-level subgroups (no need to list lower-level subgroups or individual languages) and I'm surprised it hadn't been created earlier. Of course, it should be expanded with links at least for Tocharian and Hittite. – Uanfala (talk) 12:33, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per Uanfala. This template is useful. --Tom (LT) (talk) 08:31, 5 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Useful and satisfy all the criteria at WP:NAVBOX. That it's created by a sock isn't a good argument for deletion of a good template in my opinion. ‑‑Trialpears (talk) 16:35, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was no consensus. A lot of 3 entries video game series templates templates were nominated on the same day with most !votes being copy pasted on several of these. Since no one mentioned issues affecting individual templates I have considered all arguments together and could not see a consensus to delete emerging. I recommend that further discussion on this matter happen on WT:VG or WT:NAVBOX. (non-admin closure) ‑‑Trialpears (talk) 11:05, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - I created this long ago when my knowledge of wiki protocol was less than stellar. The games get so little as far as daily hits that I don't feel motivated to make a series article either to even bother trying to save a template. Not sure if there would be enough content to even do so. --Teancum (talk) 12:49, 13 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
