Template:Co-sponsors of the USA Freedom Act (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

used in just one template, the info can easily be substituted there. The Banner talk 22:27, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's 263 lines long; good use of template Anonymouscoward2421 (talk) 22:31, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
There are few exceptions to the general consensus that templates are for inclusion in more than one page. —PC-XT+ 03:19, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Transmitter (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose delete. Radio station transmitter coordinate template which links to Google Maps. Redundant to standard {{Coord}} template, which is almost universally used in radio station articles, and which has much greater functionality (including Google Maps link). Nearly all articles using template are from Cleveland radio market. I primarily focus on Cleveland radio, and I mistook this template as one of the standard links included in {{AM station data}} and/or {{FM station data}}. I have probably done more to keep this template alive than any other editor, yet even I see no reason for its continued use. Levdr1lp / talk 22:06, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom —PC-XT+ 03:22, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment if this is kept it will definitely need renaming, the name is highly opaque, and it is not what one would logically think it was, a box of links to types of transmitters or parts of transmitters. -- 70.24.244.161 (talk) 06:11, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. —PC-XT+ 07:04, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

template with a list of books endorsed by an online platform. Most of the titles are red links, unlinked or wrong links. Not useful at all. The Banner talk 07:46, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Regbraces (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

I am the creator of this template, as a fork of Template:Braces. Later discovered that it functions the exact same way as Template:Tlf without <span class=nowrap>...</span> tags wrapping it. Long name and probably better named "Tlf-alt" or something anyway. No one's made Template:Tlf without nowrap yet, and I can't see why they would need it now. meteor_sandwich_yum (talk) 06:02, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

delete (are we done?), I just wanted a second opinion. Wasn't really sure where to go from here but am perfectly okay with trashing it. Never used WP:TFD before. meteor_sandwich_yum (talk) 05:47, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography/list (edit | talk | history | links | logs)

This is a project specific fork of {{todo}}, used only four times (now?) on Talk:Dartmoor , Talk:Northumberland , Talk:Cardiff and Talk:West Sussex; it doesnt add much, and to-do lists on the talk page shouldnt be project specific. Also worth mentioning is that there is a sandbox version of this template at Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography/list/sandbox. John Vandenberg (chat) 08:38, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A navbox consisting entirely of external links. Violates every navbox principle. (Is there a speedy deletion category that would cover this?) oknazevad (talk) 04:29, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
