It's a recently created template that's only used on one highly visible page, I suggest it would only be needed if there was a need for mass consistency, and I doubt DC or PR will become states, only needs 2 characters to type "50" than 9 characters to type the template. ∼∼∼∼ Eric0928Talk 23:51, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unused templates. ~ Rob13Talk 21:19, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • comment seems to be putting the cart before the horse; creating templates before the corresponding articles. I could quickly turn these into article stubs if that were useful (it seems like it would take even longer for these to have more than one use), or we could put them in PensRule11385's user space until there is time to create the articles. or, if PensRule11385 has no plans to create the articles, we should just delete the templates. Frietjes (talk) 14:36, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • comment I made the templates ahead of time because it was easier to create them from the source material all in one go rather than make the article and refer to the various pages and documents one-by-one. Unless someone beats me to it I will eventually be making a page for every NCAA Division I season going back to 1947-48 (when the first tournament was played). I would prefer that they not be deleted but if someone wants to put them into a kind of limbo until they're used I can't really complain. PensRule11385 (talk) 16:34, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • move to userspace until the articles have been created and the templates have a place to be used. although, if they are going to be used in only one article, it would be better to put them in the article directly. Frietjes (talk) 16:10, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template lists personnel of the German Wehrmacht of WWII, who happen to be first recipients of the award. As high-ranking commanders, all of these subjects are also included in the Template:GFMofWWII (template of field marshals), making the template under discussion redundant and not informative.

Verging on WP:CRUFT. No indication that this group of bank governors has received attention as a group. See also [1]. Vanamonde (talk) 07:03, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment This should not be deleted regarding the template APEC's central bank governors as it has a significant purpose and navigational purpose served by this template. Alongside Finance Ministers, the central bank governors represent APEC countries during APEC Summits similar to the G8 and G20. Central bank governors do have a role during APEC finance ministerial meetings Saiph121 (talk) 07:03, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There is evidence that Central bank governors had a role on APEC summits and are evident as a group in attendance in APEC ministerial meetings and are not a cruft and therefore legitimate as well highly significant. It is highly recommended that these template should be retained and lift off the nomination for deletion immediately. Saiph121 (talk) 04:05, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete New Zealand incumbents in Cabinet roles and Central Bank Governor change too often for the work needed to keep these templates up to date to be practical. The importance of having this information in a Wikipedia template is extremely low. EvidenceFairy (talk) 06:41, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and Comment - Importance of this information in this Wikipedia template is absolutely and extremely necessary, important and highly important given to the note of those previous discussions. It is possible to keep these template up to date same as the template of G8 and G20. There is strictly and extremely no need to remove it. Saiph121 (talk) 12:02, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete As I have previously said for the ASEAN templates below, this isn't needed and borders on cruft. The group of Central Bank Governors hasn't received significant coverage as a whole. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 02:28, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Verging on WP:CRUFT. There is no evidence that this particular subset of foreign ministers is in any way more closely linked than any other, and this international grouping is not one that has received significant attention in WP:RS. Vanamonde (talk) 07:00, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment This should not be strictly deleted as there is a reason that foreign ministers have a purpose in every APEC summit particularly the ministerial meetings. Saiph121 (talk) 07:01, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Foreign ministers also attended APEC summits and are accompanied APEC heads of states. Mostly they represent heads of states (in absence depending on circumstances). It functions as same in the G8 and G20. Saiph121 (talk) 07:20, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There is evidence that Foreign ministers had a role on APEC summits and there are closely linked to other as evident in APEC ministerial meetings and are not a cruft and therefore highly significant and legitimate. It is highly recommended that these template should be retained and lift off the nomination for deletion immediately. Saiph121 (talk) 03:32, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It is pointless that without the foreign ministers in APEC, there would be no effect on APEC's function as an economic organization that focuses not just on trade, monetary system but foreign relations as well; Furthermore, like what was mentioned in three previous comments, deleting or removing these template is absolutely pointless as it served its purpose, this is considered as completely accurate and therefore should absolutely be kept and retained. Saiph121 (talk) 00:10, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I am not in favour of templates such as these. Unless the foreign ministers of APEC have received coverage as a while, it doesn't serve a purpose. There are way too many of these templates already. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 00:58, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It seems that you really don't get the point. The foreign ministers of APEC (member economies they represent) had a coverage (see the example of the foreign ministerial meeting of APEC, [2]) and yet based on the 4 discussions, they have a purpose. There a valid reason these should be retained and remind that these template is not a cruft and are legitimate. Saiph121 (talk) 1:21, 12 December 2016 (UTC)
Struck duplicate keep--Lemongirl942 (talk) 02:31, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question and Comment - What is the point if the APEC ministerial meetings don't have a coverage on the foreign ministers of APEC at all? Strictly speaking, (see the web page of APEC meeting papers section - Annual ministerial meetings and then browse the recent ministerial meetings and previous ministerial meetings, [3]) the foreign ministers of APEC do group together and participate in these ministerial meetings and it is there they will make joint declaration of several of the current policies. On the five discussions being made, it's a proof that the foreign ministers of APEC had these coverage and a reason why should not be removed and retained instead.

This is...what should I call it...ASEAN cruft? ASEAN as a group is well known, but the central bank governors of ASEAN countries isn't a significant topic itself. I don't see the navigational purpose served by this template. We don't have templates such as "Current central bank governors of NATO/SAARC/African Union" etc. Lemongirl942 (talk) 06:39, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I just looked and realised G20 seems to have a bunch of similar templates. It is possible that the editor looked that those and eplicated it for ASEAN. We might need to decide whether we need templates such as these. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 06:51, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment This should not be deleted regarding the template ASEAN's central bank governors as it has a significant purpose and navigational purpose served by this template. Alongside Finance Ministers, the central bank governors represent ASEAN countries during ASEAN Summits similar to the G8 and G20. Saiph121 (talk) 06:58, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete essentially cruft, of the sort that frequently crops up in South Asian articles. No evidence that this group of central bankers have received any treatment in reliable sources as a group, nor that they have closer connections to each other than to any other central bank governors. I have run into this issue with this editor before. Vanamonde (talk) 06:57, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There is evidence that Central bank governors had a role alongside finance ministers during ASEAN ministerial meetings and that is so these template are highly significant and important as well they are not a cruft. It should be highly suggested to retain these templates as well lift off the nomination for deletion immediately.
