This template has been subject to two previous deletion discussions, in March 2011 here and again in July 2011 [User_talk:Nikmek99#Nomination_for_deletion_of_Template:Promotional_Singles_2 here] as well as a merge discussion Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2012_December_16#Template:Infobox_promotional_single here. The template would rely on consensus that we're agreeing to promotional singles being included in the infobox of which there is no consensus or apparent discussion. There is no appetite for including promotional/limited release or countdown singles in the infobox, largely because they are so poorly defined and/or referenced and often contentious. ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }- 20:19, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Per past discussions (for example here and here, and TFDs here and here), there is a consensus to not have seasonal/championship winning squad templates outside international football, as there are too many competitions for this to be viable. Instead, this squad information belongs in articles such as 2019 Georgetown Hoyas men's soccer team. Some of these templates also have a small number of links, as only a few squad members have an article. S.A. Julio (talk) 06:33, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Frankly, I'm not even sure why we have squad nav-boxes for non WP:FPL teams. However, these are at least current squads as opposed to historical squads, and some of these teams have a chance at being promoted to a fully-professional league. I dispute the idea that this tournament is important or noteworthy for the sport or even to college sports as a whole; the only NCAA championships where this situation would give me pause are football, men's basketball, and women's basketball. And while there don't appear to be any template creep issues here, I don't see a compelling reason for their inclusion. I really don't feel strongly towards deletion, but it's the way I'm leaning.

The difference between something like basketball and American football vs. college soccer is sort of where this makes a difference for me. There's substantially more coverage for their tournaments than any other NCAA tournament, so I can see keeping those championship team navboxes, easy. Certainly at the moment I don't feel the same way for college soccer. I think these navboxes are kind of harmless, but my opinion also isn't strong either way.

Template:Customs services

The result of the discussion was merge/delete. I have deleted the less comprehensive template (custom services) and moved the more comprehensive template (customs) to the more specific name (custom services, as suggested) Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 16:48, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A more comprehensive but exactly same template exists as Template:Customs. Therefore there is no need for this template and I propose to have it deleted. The original creator is inactive and there have been insignificant activity on this template as well. Greateasterner (talk) 16:45, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting – These templates appear to have been created for the sole purpose of inserting a background color in table headers on two pages: List of National Monuments of Chile by region and List of National Monuments of Chile in Aysén Region. I removed the templates from the latter of these pages initially because one of them was causing lint errors with a <span> tag. I then noticed through the hastemplates: search operator that only one other page was using either template, so I removed it from that page as well. I also note that neither template has been maintained since 2012, and that the original author (Diego Grez-Cañete) was banned permanently in 2015. Since these templates were created for a very small purpose and were causing at least one page to generate errors, I propose they simply be deleted. I have placed tfd tags on them, but I have not notified the author due to the aforementioned ban. Dylan38 (talk) 15:09, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Romance languages with Template:Italic languages.
Do you think this template should be merged with the ((Italic languages)) template, since all the Romance languages descend from Vulgar Latin, an Italic language, or should they remain separate, because this template has many more articles linking to it (158), than the ((Italic languages)) template (only 26)?

This template is rotten in the core. It lists dozens of living people as princes and princesses despite there being no indication that they all call themselves so or that reliable sources identify them as such. It supposes that there is a defined entity called "Bavarian royal family" or "House of Wittelsbach" and further supposes that all these people associate themselves with this group. And even if verifiability and living people considerations were not issues, this navbox is useless because only 13 out of 51 names (by my count) are linked. The rest are bare names of people who may well distance themselves from any pretended royal status for professional or ideological reasons. Surtsicna (talk) 18:14, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment There WAS a Bavarian royal family, However that was when Germany was an empire and Bavaria was it Constituent states, just like the Free State of Bavaria of modern Germany which retain it own Ministers-President. ชาวไทย (talk) 17:26, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I'm not sure your comments on that refutes it. PPEMES (talk) 11:49, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That's alright. I just wish there was more of an explanation of how it is not a major WP:V and WP:BLP concern to group all these people under the name of a former royal house without any indication that they associate themselves with it or claim a royal status. Wittelsbach is not even their family name. Surtsicna (talk) 11:43, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
