Unused, redundant template... JMHamo (talk) 23:50, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's not redundant. I linked it to the related articles. Tom Ruen (talk) 00:23, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2014–15 Michigan State Spartans men's basketball navbox (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Delete - Consensus has been not to have current roster templates for college teams (see Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Log/2009 June 26#College basketball current roster navboxes among others) due to college players not being inherently notable. I'd also add that while some top programs have a number of notable players due to press coverage for that team, the vast majority of the 350+ division I programs do not. The only season team navboxes that have been supported in the past have been Division I NCAA Championship teams (which will not be decided for another week+). Rikster2 (talk) 19:46, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete per long standing precedent and consensus. Also, navbox fan cruft. Please get rid of this asap. Jrcla2 (talk) 20:01, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as fan cruft. Lourawls Nairn is not notable and should probably be nominated for deletion as well. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 20:33, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Per nominator's rationale and long-established precedent for American college sports: we only do team roster templates for college teams that win national championships. Furthermore, a substantial portion of the listed team members are red links to nowhere. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 21:01, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox European Parliament election (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Infobox election (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Infobox European Parliament election with Template:Infobox election.
None of {{Infobox European Parliament election}}'s parameters are unique to the EP; the two missing from {{Infobox election}} are "electorate" and "electionmethods". Alakzi (talk) 17:05, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge, providing info is not lost. I find with some nostalgia that I was the creator of this infobox, back when the world was young. Still, enough of the nostalgia. The EP election infobox contains metadata: what was the electorate, what was the electoral area, election methods, etc. At the time of creation the standard election infobox did not often hold that metadata, so a separate infobox was necessary. But, as time has worn on, more and more of the metadata is now included in the standard 'box and the need for a separate infobox has worn away. Therefore I would have no objection to Alakzi's merging of the two infoboxes provided information was not lost. I've updated the infobox for the 1994 election to demonstrate how this can be done safely: you can see it here. The "seats_for_election" parameter can be used to store the electorate and election methods data, the "turnout" parameter is already present.
So, to conclude: provided the merging wikipedian guarantees to include the electorate, election method and turnout data in the standard election infobox (see example), then I would have no objection to the merge taking place.

  • I've been WP:BOLD and incorporated the EP election infobox data in the standard election infoboxes for the elections 1979-2004. This ensures the data will not be lost regardless of the outcome of this TfD. It would be a good idea if "electoralarea", "electorate" and "electoralmethods" were given separate parameters in infobox:election, but this will do for the time being.

  • If you assure me that the electionarea, electorate and election menthods will not be lost, then I would be more than happy to do so. Note that some templates use the EP infobox directly (see this example ) so you'll need to clear those up. Incidentally, how *does* one request a speedy deletion?

Template:Uw-unreferenced (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant, in my opinion, to {{Uw-unsourced1}} and the entire "unsourced user warning" series. If the user who's placing the notification would like to convey that {{Unreferenced}} has been placed on the article, they should be able to use the "additional text" option for those templates. We don't need a whole other template. APerson (talk!) 02:11, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
