Template:Editnotices/Page/Kenyon College (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Seems to be completely unnecessary and has been in place for three years with no discussion added to the relevant section in the article's Talk page. ElKevbo (talk) 20:48, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, an edit notice to enforce a style preference does seem like overkill.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 02:37, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Dr. Steel (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

There are exactly four articles related to Dr Steel, a briefly active self-published musician. We don't need a navigation template. Guy (Help!) 19:55, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per JzG. Might be worth pointing out that the creaor of the template has been blocked indefinitely. (t) Josve05a (c) 00:18, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
We don't even need the album articles, unless something's changed and we now consider self-hosted MP3 albums to be intrinsically notable. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 12:52, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Winter Soldier (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Navigational template for a supporting character of Captain America. The majority of the topics can by navigated through Template:Captain America.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 18:06, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as redundant. -Fandraltastic (talk) 19:16, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Due to Winter Soldier's place in the Captain America body of work, this navbox is by its very nature no more than a subset of Template:Captain America.--NukeofEarl (talk) 01:13, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nominator and the user's reasons above me. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 03:04, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Don't delete it, he has his own comic book series, he's a fan favorite, a super soldier and he was Captain America. Lg16spears (talk) 13:52, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per NukeofEarl. A secondary character, not important enough to merit this. And no, not every character who has had his own comic book series (not a high hurdle) or is a "fan favorite" should have their own template. postdlf (talk) 14:45, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and nukeofearl. seems a template should have an article. this really doesn't, as WS refers to bucky, not the specific incarnation as WS.(mercurywoodrose)76.254.37.225 (talk) 05:04, 2 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Elite Seven (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Who are the Elite Seven. No point on having a template if we don't know that its subject even exists.. Nathan121212 (talk) 15:02, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If kept, the article should be made telling why this group of seven colleges is notable. —PC-XT+ 19:41, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Such an article was made, and was deleted four years ago because no one could find any notable reference to "the Elite Seven". See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Elite Seven. I don't know why this template wasn't nominated for deleted back then, because it seems the same rationale for deletion applies here.--NukeofEarl (talk) 01:22, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Versailles (solo artist) (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

It's a navbox with 11 links, of which 1 is broken and 9 point directly or indirectly to Versailles (musician), which is the only page that actually uses the navbox. (The last link goes to Cleopatra Records, which doesn't use the navbox and is unlikely to in future.) — Paul A (talk) 06:44, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — I hear people crying WP:NENAN already. This navigates nothing. —PC-XT+ 19:44, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, if enough of the song articles become established, I'd say keep. If it gets deleted before then, it can be remade if and when it is needed again. —PC-XT+ 20:26, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — absolutely nothing! Sw2nd (talk) 22:10, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I put up the template Versailles (solo artist), for the page when it was named Versailles (solo artist) and linked it to all the wiki pages of each CD. A few days later Trivilist moved the page to Versailles (musician). Since then all links are broken and just redirect back to the Versailles (musician) page. No CD's show up and all links to CD pages redirect to Versailles (musician). I'm new at this editing and I do not know how to fix it. Any ideas? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nightofseptember (talk • contribs) 08:00, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The links aren't broken; they're redirects. The move to Versailles (musician) wouldn't cause that issue. A quick look at the revision history for the articles reveals what happened: Immediately after moving Versailles (solo artist) to Versailles (musician), Trivialist moved all the album articles to their correct names (e.g. Targets-CD to Targets (album)). He then immediately redirected the articles to Versailles (musician). See [1] and [2]. If you think the album articles should remain as standalone articles and not redirects, you can just revert Trivialist's "redirect" edits. He may choose to argue the point with you, though. Given that Trivialist also tagged the album articles for notability, it would be a good idea to read Wikipedia:Notability (music) and make sure the articles meet the guidelines there. Hope that helps.--NukeofEarl (talk) 13:36, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
