Template:Dog

Delete There are lots of templates simalaur to this one.

Long deprecated reference template with a handful of uses. We have better methods of creating the same output. -— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 15:30, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete has been superseded by other templates/cite methods such as <ref group="foo">, {{ref}}/{{note}}, and {{ref label}}/{{note label}}. — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 18:32, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Marinadelrey

Template:Marinadelrey (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Not everything needs a navbox. Most of the template's links are just to subsections of the article... — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 08:33, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/iPhoneEmu

Template:Latest stable software release/iPhoneEmu (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

iPhoneEmu refers to iPhone Emulator, an article which the template crator created that has since been deleted as purely promotional, so there's no real use for this template anymore. — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 08:26, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no compelling reason to keep it as it isn't used and is unlikely to be used in the near future. - Ahunt (talk) 14:22, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Could probably be done as G8 speedy. -- WOSlinker (talk) 19:53, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:CEV Cup / Challenge Cup

Template:CEV Cup / Challenge Cup (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

A bit of redlink fever here. — This, that, and the other (talk) 08:56, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Should be blue ones. And see Category:CEV navigational boxes. Template:CEV Cup is the same? That one could be a redirect. And that third one is different (only for men)? Pelmeen10 (talk) 09:31, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Articles are in Category:European volleyball club competitions, so there are: Women's CEV Cup 2007–08, Women's CEV Cup 2008–09, Women's CEV Cup 2009–10, Men's CEV Cup 2007–08, Men's CEV Cup 2008–09, Men's CEV Cup 2009–10. I think those need a navigational template. Pelmeen10 (talk) 16:50, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Template:Child taxa/Life

Template:Child taxa/Life (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This is not the child taxa list of all life; this is the child taxa list for some kind of virus (??). Probably broken. Unused. No use. — This, that, and the other (talk) 05:43, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is the child taxa list for all life. Less than half of those are virus taxa. It's not broken, as can be verified at Category:Immediate_children/Life. As for its use, I unfortunately can't answer that. Martin will know what it's used for and whether it's actually in use. I doubt he'd have a bot set up to update it if it weren't.

Relisting comment: It would be great if Martin could explain why this needs to be in template space, and what exactly it is being used for. Thanks! Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 01:14, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I left him a note a few days ago, but he appears to have little or no Internet access at this time and is thus on a WikiBreak. Bob the WikipediaN ^{(talk • contribs)} 01:24, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Hotel2

Template:Hotel2 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Don't know what it's about. Unused. — This, that, and the other (talk) 00:40, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weird. Has nothing to do with hotels. Delete.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:42, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Wikinews pending interview

Template:Wikinews pending interview (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This box does not belong on Wikipedia - it takes sister project links a touch too far. Unused. — This, that, and the other (talk) 00:40, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
