Template:Editnotices/Page/Pokémon X and Y (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The game was released 2 1/2 months ago, so there is no chance of any info being "leaked" on it anymore. This editnotice is no longer needed. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 23:47, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete it doesn't seem like this editnotice should have been created with this wording in the first place. A reliable source can report on rumors, as rumors. Leaks do not indicate that it is not reliable, consider Edward Snowden information is reliable in that it is what Edward Snowden is saying, so if treated as something from Edward Snowden, then it is what it is. -- 65.94.76.3 (talk) 12:53, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a travel guide and I see no reason to provide a link to current weather information in an encyclopedia. MilborneOne (talk) 23:00, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nominator. Also per WP:Navbox, templates aren't supposed to have external links....William 00:15, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: WP:NAVBOX is irrelevant here: this isn't a navigation template. There are plenty of templates used for standard formatting of external links, such as {{official}} or {{IMDb title}}. Also, I don't see how WP:NOTTRAVEL applies either: given that Wikipedia is not a travel guide, there's no reason why we can't link to a reputable site for information we don't provide ourselves. --RFBailey (talk) 00:29, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I am pretty sure that providing current weather even in a dedicated external links is not a function of an encyclopedia, we dont provide this sort of information for other locations and external links should add to the article per WP:EL1 - the weather today does not add anything to the article.

Propose merging Template:Microsoft executives with Template:Microsoft.
This template duplicates the one for Microsoft. So this redundant. If anyone is in this template and not in Microsoft, put them in and then delete this. ...William 14:27, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
