Template:Roc Nation Sports (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Sounds more like an disguised advertisement than as a real useful navigation template. Clients of a marketeer are subject to change The Banner talk 21:41, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

delete, redundant to a list in Roc Nation Sports. clearly this is only going to be suitable in one article, so no need to have it formatted as a navbox. Frietjes (talk) 19:07, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Inorganic compounds of carbon (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Carbon compounds with Template:Inorganic compounds of carbon.
Two small navboxes for carbon compounds. One tracks kinds of compounds, while the other tracks individual compounds. Both are small enough that we could easily do everything with one template, and meanwhile having two of them is confusing. See discussion at current revision of WP:RDS, thread "Is carbon tetrachloride an organic compound?" Nyttend (talk) 20:04, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom and RDS discussion -PC-XT+ 05:56, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support merger per my comments at the RD/S discussion PC-XT notes. I think Template:Inorganic compounds of carbon is a better merger target. Template:Carbon compounds is in keeping with the Category:Chemistry compounds templates naming pattern but is pretty confusing because it self-declares as only inorganic ones. DMacks (talk) 06:10, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support merge, but make it clear these are not organic compounds of carbon, just stick to the inorganic. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:47, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The headers are also a bit confusing targets for the linked terms. I think it should be "Inorganic compounds of carbon" or "Inorganic compounds of carbon", and a footer "See also: Organic compound". DMacks (talk) 13:08, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with changing the name and headers to specify inorganic compounds, and adding a see also link to organic compound -PC-XT+ 04:31, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox Slavic deity (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Seven mainspace transclusions, it was kept at the last TfD because an Infobox deity didn't yet exist, though it was planned. Now it can be replaced by the latter. eh bien mon prince (talk) 04:45, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NENAN, links only four articles. Record labels and related articles don't count, since those pages don't and shouldn't use the template. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 04:08, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Infobox religion with Template:Infobox Christian denomination.
Used only in one article, Unitarian Universalism. Broadly similar to Template:Infobox Christian denomination, if the name of this template is an issue it can be changed to something more generic. eh bien mon prince (talk) 04:05, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to Template:Infobox religion or a more suitable name -PC-XT+ 06:14, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment what do religion articles use if not Infobox Religion? We should make sure it supports all religions, and implement it on religion articles. -- 70.24.249.39 (talk) 09:06, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you look at Islam, Christianity, Hinduism etc, these articles are using a navigation sidebar in place of an infobox.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 18:51, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Religion isn't solely the major religions, all of which would have a bouquet of articles, smaller religions would not have a bouquet of articles. Some probably only have one article or a handful. Heaven's Gate (religious group) doesn't have an infobox, for instance. -- 70.24.249.39 (talk) 05:14, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Huge template with many redlinks. Not sure what to recommend, but perhaps not too useful, as is. Suggestions? Thanks, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 00:51, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

make it a list article and delete. — Lfdder (talk) 00:56, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It can't continue to exist in the current form, it has just too many links and it would be a blight on every page it was used on. Other navboxes in the same series are based on designation, can't a more restrictive criterion be used for inclusion? If not, I second Lfdder in recommending deletion.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 01:24, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A content-equivalent list article has been created, per this discussion. See: List of unmanned aerial vehicles of the People's Republic of China. Thanks, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 11:14, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
delete, now that there is an article. this is too much for a navbox, and is better served by a list article and/or a category. Frietjes (talk) 16:27, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, I agree, now with the list article. Note, though, that the template is on quite a few pages, so will need to be removed from those pages; can be substituted with a link to List of unmanned aerial vehicles of the People's Republic of China, under 'See also'. Thanks, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 21:40, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note: have begun the process of substitution, but it will take a while yet (no more time today). These things seem to be multiplying overnight... Many Chinese universities competing with each other and each one with an article. Notability? Another topic, I guess... Regards, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 09:47, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Substitution completed. The Wiki elves have been busy, thanks! The template can now be deleted. Kind regards, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 20:45, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's a template loop. It might be a new infobox, but other than that, I have no idea what it is. buff bills 7701 00:00, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

delete. Someone tried to import tr:Şablon:Kurum bilgi kutusu for an article they were translating, probably. — Lfdder (talk) 00:59, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete, it was used for an article for creation page, which was rejected, and it never worked as intended. If buffbills7701 is not opposed, I would tag it as CSD T3 again.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 01:29, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
