The result of the discussion was no consensus. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 15:52, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Merging from (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant with template:Being merged (which can take a dir=from parameter). I have used this after closing merge discussions for its more specific text, but it seems pointless without a "Merging to" partner template that mirrors the text; after all, the guidance of the template would be much more pertinent to editors looking at the source page rather than the target page.

So if there is no support for adopting the text of this template for both directions, I would suggest turning this into an alias for template:Being merged with the dir=from parameter. Felix QW (talk) 10:45, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗plicit 12:29, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. While similar these two templates have different meaning. One is more specific stating that "a number of articles" are being merged into that article. This message can help draw out editors to assist with a possibly heavy time-consuming load. The other template meanwhile is broad saying "This page is being merged", this is not helpful as it gives no indication of the workload. I would actually rename the template to a "Merge-to" or the like as it indicates that a number of articles are coming to the tagged page. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 14:08, 19 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Knowledgekid87: Thank you very much for your comment! Just so that we are on the same page – the "number of articles" text is not actually shown in the typical use case. It is just on the template page because it is the default text if the name(s) of the article(s) to be merged is not specified. Similarly, the other template also displays the name of the page it is being merged to, when specified.

In all uses I know of, the page names are fully specified. Felix QW (talk) 16:06, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox field hockey (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to {{Infobox international hockey competition}} using |winners_fhw=, |second_fhw=, etc. for women's tournaments AND |winners_fhm=, |second_fhm=, etc. for men's tournaments. –Aidan721 (talk) 02:41, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Object – Laughable, compare ice hockey and field hockey, totally different sports. --Aleen f1 03:07, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Strong oppose as Template:Infobox international hockey competition is specific to ice hockey, a different sport. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:50, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment @Joseph2302: Except it is not specific to ice hockey. Can you name any parameters that {{Infobox international hockey competition}} doesn't accept from {{Infobox field hockey}}? –Aidan721 (talk) 14:14, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There's a ton of ice hockey specific parameters e.g. winners_ih, winners_ihw, winners_ihj. Can't believe this is even being discussed any further, as they are two distinct sports, and seems like a WP:BIAS to be trying to merge field hockey an ice hockey template (merging a non-North American sport to try and fit into the North American sport). Joseph2302 (talk) 14:56, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There's also a ton of field specific parameters e.g. winners_fhm, winners_fhw, winners_fhu, so that's a non-argument. And I'm not merging to an ice hockey template. I'm merging to a hockey template, which covers bandy, field hockey, ice hockey, roller hockey, etc. Hockey is an umbrella of multiple sports. What does sport origin have to do with this? Both sports are played globally. –Aidan721 (talk) 22:21, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

And there are loads of parameters in the field hockey template that aren't in the ice hockey one (according to their respective documentations). Like young_player, goalkeeper, fair_play. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:58, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think issue of Manual of Style is taking into account too, it seems like he did not know. --Aleen f1 15:03, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Again, it's not an ice hockey template, it's a hockey template. Please refer to it correctly. –Aidan721 (talk) 22:22, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

And, as a matter of fact, those parameters you mention are included in the hockey template. –Aidan721 (talk) 22:26, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
oppose, different sports. why not merge all association and gridiron football templates too, since football is in the title? this change is not a great idea and should be reviewed. however, I would support having a generic competition template (e.g., like Template:Infobox sports competition event) but where you can specify the sport so it can be used with a variety of different sports, and generate the team link and flags appropriately. Frietjes (talk) 18:11, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Would this not be a step towards creating a single template for all sports? –Aidan721 (talk) 22:23, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What you mean by all sports? An association football merging with American football and Australian football? Aleen f1 01:24, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Would this not be a step towards creating a single template for all sports? It would, but that would be a terrible idea, because most sports have separate requirements and parameters specific to their sport. As both ice and field hockey do. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:30, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

no, this is not the correct step towards creating a single template for all sports. having a different parameter suffix for every sport is insane, which is why the recent changes should be reviewed and probably reversed. Frietjes (talk) 17:17, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
oppose per above and i agree with Frietjes about the edit(s). Kante4 (talk) 09:24, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
oppose just noticed this discussion to delete the field hockey template, if this happens what will replace the current uses of it? How many times is it used presently? It is in most years related to the Men's England Hockey League and the Women's England Hockey League. There must be multiple other uses too. Additionally seems like a lot of work for no particular reason and most importantly surely field hockey as a sport should retain its own templates.
