- Template:Francis (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
One article. No need for its own navigational box which is for article collection. 86.40.200.32 (talk) 22:13, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Template:Special Elections to the 114th United States Congress (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Empty. —GoldRingChip 14:19, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

- Template:(X)HTML (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unused template. Was originally created for use on {{strong}}'s documentation subpage, but that's now been edited away for a more relevant link (by me). It seems unlikely that this template will see use. — Hex (❝?!❞) 10:12, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- I think it's still usable, there are already pages that contain "(X)HTML" (e.g. Geo (microformat)), and it is easier and more clean to write
{{(X)HTML}}, instead of([[XHTML|X]])[[HTML]]or[[[XHTML|X]]][[HTML]]. --Z 11:00, 13 March 2013 (UTC) - (X)HTML already points at an appropriate target. This goes out of its way to be pointless. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:50, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Basically, just a combination of two band templates {{Off!}} and {{Redd Kross}}. Since one of these would/should be on each one of the linked articles, they already pass WP:ANOEP and don't need a second navbox for an individual band member. By going to Steven Shane McDonald, one can link to any of the his bands or their albums because it will be the one where having both navboxes would make sense. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 08:37, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Keep - WRONG!!! Green and Yellow TV is not on EITHER {{Off!}} and {{Redd Kross}}. --Jax 0677 (talk) 13:33, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Why would Green and Yellow TV need to link from anything to do from those two bands. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 16:15, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Reply - Three words, Steven Shane McDonald. --Jax 0677 (talk) 17:06, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Yet another absurd navbox-by-numbers rationalised on the very-much-not-consensus position that every single notable musician, and every single notable band, must be cross-linked via navigation templates. A quick examination of the aforementioned Green and Yellow TV shows how hilariously wrongheaded this is: the other, more famous projects of the bass player who "stepped in" to record two singles for the band are probably the most prominent part of the article.

Unused expect in their respective album articles, which already show the track list. Many of these are quite lacking in terms of navigational ability, but in the end, the template {{Queen singles}} already exists and seems to be the preferred use for navigation between Queen songs.

- Template:'Isa (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
This is a sidebar about Jesus in Islam, just like Template:Isa. Both were created by the same user. Up until this revision the template Isa was remarkably similar to this present template. It was changed after a discussion to its present form, then a version similar to the old one was restored. This change was reverted as well, and the template "'Isa" was created a couple of weeks later. Overall, it seems like a content fork created to go against consensus. If that's the case, it should be deleted. eh bien mon prince (talk) 07:43, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Comment Consensus! actually the thing is that there was no consensus and the only reason the opponent provides at the Template talk:Isa is the use of an infobox in a template. Similar to the one you made at Template:Rashidun Caliphs as here and i just dont get the point why an infobox cannot be used as a template is there a hard and fast policy that states not to use it or what? which i am unaware of. The purpose of this template is to serve as an infobox as well as a template.But prior to this at Template talk:Isa there was a forced opinion not to use it without pointing to any policy that states not to use it as here, here here and even on the talk page of "Isa" i don't find any justified point that states not to use of template as per this policy other then the point that it have infobox content. --Ibrahim ebi (talk) 21:44, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- I'm not trying to take part into that discussion or revive it. The matter here is different: is this template a POVFORK? If it is, it should be deleted, period.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 22:17, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- POV how come it can be a POV if i have provided the sources earlier as well the only negating point is that it hold an infobox into it. --Ibrahim ebi (talk) 22:57, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Template of dubious notability, many of the teams were deleted in AFD, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anzan Izeh F.C. one example with the rest prime candidates for deletion, everything else in that template is rather off-topic here Delete Secret account 03:46, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Template:Atlantic 10 Conference Men's Basketball Tournament Champions (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Like the NCAA tourney navboxes below, I'm nominating this on WP:ATC and WP:NENAN. I'd also like to mention there is another open TfD about a very similar navbox that can be found here. Jrcla2 (talk) 02:47, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Delete per Jrcla2. Jweiss11 (talk) 03:54, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Oh boy, March Madness rolls around and now everybody wants to start creating templates. My official reason is WP:ATC with a healthy side of WP:NENAN. The second and third navboxes aren't even being used and look like sandbox drafts if anything. Some editors are just a little too gung-ho with these sorts of creations. Jrcla2 (talk) 02:28, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- None of these navboxes are needed. I already deleted them from all the pages the creator put them on and left them a message on his/her page. The category for the tournament participants is enough, no need for a navbox to.Bsuorangecrush (talk) 02:45, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- I take it that's a delete !vote? Jrcla2 (talk) 02:49, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Delete all - over-templatization. Absolutely not needed. Rikster2 (talk) 03:11, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

unnecessary navbox, only 2 wikilinks. RadioFan (talk) 00:47, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
