Template:Mexico Squad 2011 FIFA U20 World Cup (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Its not a senior player tournament, some of the players haven't debuted in the first team of a club. Youth tournaments aren't as notable as the Men's World Cup, Confederations Cup or UEFA Euro. GoPurple'nGold24 22:56, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Mexico Squad 2011 Pan American Games (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

It wasn't a major international tournament like the World Cup, UEFA Euro or Confederations Cup. The tournament also used mostly youth players. GoPurple'nGold24 21:50, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete, it looks like it hasn't been used since 2009 (the links provided by Thincat showing September 2011 are showing the last edit date for the articles, not the creation date of the articles). If a particular WP wants it, or if a user wants it, I am happy to move it to project or user space. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 21:04, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Dutch Railway station (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Not a template and orphaned. Looks like a set up page for a railway station. Secondarywaltz (talk) 19:14, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete improper use of templatespace and as nom; not usedCurb Chain (talk) 20:01, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment this is a perfectly good use of template namespace, since boilerplate preload/substitution templates have frequently been situated in templatespace. As for being unused, it is most definitely either a preload or a substitution template, so should appear to be never transcluded. 65.94.77.11 (talk) 04:16, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment It looks to me this template is probably being used by way of substitution, as recently as September 2011.[1] Thincat (talk) 11:08, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment This is improper use of template space. This should be kept in user space as something customized by and for the use of one editor. Can you imagine the mess if we all created templates like this for every type of article we might want to create. Secondarywaltz (talk) 11:21, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I don't see why this should be restricted to one user. Dutch rail stations are quite likely a topic that many users are interested in. Some WikiProject may want to document its use though. 65.94.77.11 (talk) 11:45, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
... and French Stations, English Stations, German Stations, Indian Stations, etc. Where would it end? I use similar pages stored on my own computer for many things. Secondarywaltz (talk) 12:05, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Your point being? WP:NOTPAPER . We have boilerplate substitution and preloads for many things, several WikiProjects even have their own article wizards. 65.94.77.11 (talk) 08:15, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly. Something like this can be very useful, but it does not belong in Template space. It should be part of a Project. Secondarywaltz (talk) 13:29, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I've seen those preloads sit in Templatespace. 65.94.77.11 (talk) 06:47, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I agree. If the relevant project users feel this is helpful there's no reason they can't collectively use it. However the template notes should explain this and perhaps point to the consensus discussion. I suggest we bin this delete proposal and move the discussion to the railway project talk page for now. --Bermicourt (talk) 11:48, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment if this has been used to build articles, then it should be kept for attribution purposes. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 20:10, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think it could safely be argued that the content is trivial enough not to be copyrightable. We haven't typically expected that readers who copy boilerplate of this sort attribute it to its origin. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 15:56, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Secondarywaltz (talk) 18:54, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

FYI. That was not really "clever code", that is the standard way to do things. {{Budapest Metro line}} is just a custom version of the normally used {{S-line}} and should subsequently be replace by it. Secondarywaltz (talk) 13:43, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
All the better. I didn't know S-line existed - it looks as though the two templates were created at the same time in dec 2006. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 16:17, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
