Template:Infobox former Arab villages in Palestine

Convert to a wrapper that transcludes {{Infobox settlement}}. 89.14.255.155 (talk) 18:48, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Previous TfDs for this template:

Imported as dependencies of Module:Format TemplateData (then called Module:TemplateData), which has been rewritten by me to no longer need them, so these modules are now unnecessary. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 16:02, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This module has two seperate usecases.

  1. The use of the ansiPercent function to encode URLs. This should be moved to Module:String as it is a string-formatting function, not one having to do with wikilinks
  2. The use of the rest module as a former dependency of Module:Format TemplateData (originally called Module:TemplateData): see #Module:Format TemplateData dependencies above

Template:Infobox South African town

Delete after replace in articles with {{Infobox settlement}}. The only dedicated town infobox for mainland Africa, all other towns use Infobox settlement directly. Created 2012, one editor. If that editor leaves, probably no one will maintain it. 77.11.90.163 (talk) 15:24, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox Hungarian settlement

Delete after replace in articles with {{Infobox settlement}}. Created 2009, creator indef blocked. 77.11.90.163 (talk) 15:17, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

TV channel programs template

WP:NOTTVGUIDE. Moreover, this is hardly being updated and some TV series have finished airing months ago. ~~ CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 10:31, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox Russian governorate

Delete after replace in articles with {{Infobox settlement}}. Created 2007, creator vanished. Only 39 articles use it, of these only 10 are governorates: Kazan Governorate, Baku Governorate, Elisabethpol Governorate, Erivan Governorate, Black Sea Governorate, Mogilev Governorate, Tiflis Governorate, Tambov Governorate, Kutais Governorate, Georgia-Imeretia Governorate. 78.54.212.31 (talk) 05:09, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Replace and delete per nom. Regardless of title of the "settlement" template, which is not logically intuitive, it's better to have all these types of template replaced by a single more easily edited central one. --Tom (LT) (talk) 10:41, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Replace and delete - per nom and Tom. Also, seeing as how this is mostly used for non-governorates, this is another justification for why a centralized template is much better for maintaining usage. --Gonnym (talk) 12:12, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox Finnish former municipality

Replace and delete. Use transcluded Infobox settlement directly. 77.11.159.48 (talk) 04:16, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:When in sandbox with Template:Sandbox other.
Duplicate templates with same function. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 01:23, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A bunch of unused gallery templates. --Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 01:21, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unused timeline templates

Unused time templates. no need to keep them around. --Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 01:14, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not seeing any rationale for deletion here. So what if they're unused? Use them! A rationale of 'not usable' or 'shouldn't be used' would be reason to delete, but not this.
Also, if an implementation is of poor quality but the notion of having a templated timeline is still valid, then we should work to improve what we have, not just discard it.
Likewise readability. That seems to come from some sizing or fuzzy font choices deep within the implementation of <timeline> – that's not something which is fixed by deleting these. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:23, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unused template. Not sure what it would be used but this and all sub-templates are unused. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 00:53, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
