- Delete as redundant to both the new version and to {{Charmed}}, although I wonder why this template wasn't just edited rather than replaced with a new template that is so similar. Can I vote to delete the new version also? --RL0919 (talk) 20:51, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- The answer to your question is that when I first constructed the newer template at Template:Charmed Companions, the older template was still in use by its linked pages, and I wanted to build the new one as a true Navbox template. I thought this was the only way to make the template easy to edit, with the v-d-e at the top left. The older template doesn't have these options. I was also unhappy with the name of the old template, so it was effectively moved to the new page.

Seems redundant {{Infobox Roman Catholic diocese}}. I don't know very much about this topic but they share most of their parameters, replaced in the only article calling this template. Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 22:25, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete Per nom. Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 19:17, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
orphaned navbox with many redlinks and many flags that have been removed from it due to license status. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 20:51, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned and single link navbox —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 20:33, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete - useless, there is nothing to navigate! Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 20:48, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete there is only one link Cocoaguy ここがいいcontribstalk Review Me!
- Delete per nom. --RL0919 (talk) 20:59, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Template:Support unknown (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Uncategorized, seemingly un-used, no written purpose; very little history...? Mjquin_id (talk) 16:10, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 16:15, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. Unused template with unclear purpose. PC78 (talk) 17:23, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete - {{purpose unknown}}. There's a see also pointing at WP:SUPPORT, but there doesn't appear to be anything there right now. (Sadly, if it's been deleted, the creation of the WP: pseudonamespace makes it impossible to check deletion logs.) Zetawoof(ζ) 23:00, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete no mentioned purpose Cocoaguy ここがいいcontribstalk Review Me! 17:41, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete per above. --RL0919 (talk) 20:54, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Template:Facts (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Redundant with {{Citation needed}}, same link, same category, the only difference is that this one adds a "s" to the word "citation". Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 02:19, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - A redirect should be enough. Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 02:29, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete – per nom. ╟─TreasuryTag►cabinet─╢ 09:44, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Redirect to {{Citation needed}}. It's obviously redundant, but also an easy typo for {{Fact}}, so a redirect would be good. --RL0919 (talk) 00:08, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Redirect to {{Citation needed}}. Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 19:19, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Template:Pokebox (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Orphan, covered by {{Infobox VG character}}. Moreover, {{Pokeinfobox}} has been orphaned and archived. -- Magioladitis (talk) 01:24, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete - it has been completely replaced. Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 20:24, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete - It was meant to make the Infobox VG Character template shorter, which was unnecessary. Then there was a big discussion about not using it, and it then got abandoned. Blake (Talk·Edits) 19:12, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Template:Fact t (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
This template implies to modify someone's else comments to ask a source or explanation for their claims (see doc). I can't really imagine what's harder: putting this template or ask what s/he is referring in a specific sentence. We are not machines and this template would make discussions sooo impersonal. Old template (1 year) and still unused. Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 01:04, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Keep. I created it as a tool in mediation, as explained here. You are right that it makes discussions less personal, but that was precisely what we needed at the time: It helped people focus on the issues, instead of the person. It also helps deescalate discussions: I often experienced the situation that a questionable statement by one editor begets a harsher, longer statement by the next. By giving people a tool at hand that reduces the need to be wordier and harsher than the previous person opens one path to deescalation of conflicts. At the same time, it reminds everyone to stick with the facts, instead of personal opinions. As for the use: It has at least been used once, as per Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Fact_t. I'm not sure how often it has been used beyond that as it lends itself to substitution, which would not appear in whatlinkshere. — Sebastian 01:53, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Template:Blpldispute (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Redundant with {{Blpdispute}} (and {{BLP sources}}). Created since more than a year but still unused. No transclusions. Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 00:40, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Keep A use is possible, just because it is not being used does not mean it will not be used. Cocoaguy ここがいいcontribstalk Review Me! 17:50, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
