Pointless wrapper template; interferes with data export to and import from Wikidata. Only 62 transclusions (compare with 4968 transclusions of {{Discogs artist}}, just one of the four templates it wraps). Should be Subst:, then deleted.

These navbox templates contain links to those who have been inducted into the Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame, a regional hall of fame of relatively minor note. Induction into this hall of fame is not a defining atrribute of the inductees and should not be used as a dimension of navigation. Jweiss11 (talk) 16:31, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. This is clearly overtemplate-ization in my opinion. Rikster2 (talk) 16:53, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I agree. Membership in this HOF isn't so important that it deserved these navboxes. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:57, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Local HOF, which has no significance outside of Philadelphia. – Sabbatino (talk) 17:08, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Cbl62 (talk) 22:36, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge It seems like I likely have a lost cause here. I'm not very active on Wikipedia anymore, but I did a lot of work on this page. I understand now it is a bit overkill for a local sports hall of fame, and doesn't mean much to anyone outside of Philadelphia. But if there was any way to merge these together into one template, I would appreciate that. But I understand if they need to be deleted. Do what you you feel is best, I guess. Peetlesnumber1 (talk) 01:24, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or merge and treat similarly to {{Florida Sports Hall of Fame}} Listify to reduce navbox creep while retaining the information —PC-XT+ 03:51, 27 July 2016 (UTC) 00:38, 29 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
PC-XT, the information in these navboxes is already listed at Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame. Jweiss11 (talk) 04:24, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, great! I looked there before I !voted. I don't know how I missed that huge yellow table. I wonder if my browser failed to display it, or if I somehow skipped over it. Weird. Anyway, the main template is using the old practice of linking to other templates, which is more like how a category works. I don't know if this could be turned into categories, though, since it's not defining. So, because the information is already listed, I'm changing my !vote to delete. —PC-XT+ 06:53, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
PC-XT, we don't need categories for this either. It's not defining. Jweiss11 (talk) 16:28, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm in favor of deleting Template:Florida Sports Hall of Fame as well, but it isn't totally obvious to me that the Philly and Florida navboxes are two peas in a pod to the extent that they need to be co-nominated. Template:Huskies of Honor navbox, Template:Italian American Sports Hall of Fame, Template:National Jewish Sports Hall of Fame, Template:University of Florida Athletic Hall of Fame are also good candidates for deletion. Jweiss11 (talk) 03:07, 29 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Alright. Following general practice, I'll strike the part of my !vote connecting the templates, and we can discuss the others separately from this one, if needed after we see how this discussion closes —PC-XT+ 06:15, 29 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Countries by most used web browser edit

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was Relisted at Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2016 August 3#Template:Countries_by_most_used_web_browser (non-admin closure) Omni Flames (talk) 07:18, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Displays patent nonsense: The image belongs to June 2015 while the legend given for it is for a non-existent June 2016 map. For example, the color red on the image does not represent Opera Mini, purple does not represent Android Browser and blue does not represent Microsoft Edge.

If one cannot give correct information, one must not give wrong information. The correct course of action, which is editing the template to show the correct info is already tried and met with a revert. Hence, TfD is the next stop. Codename Lisa (talk) 09:07, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • That's a shame. Either establish the correct information, even if a table is needed per User:FleetCommand, or delete per nom —PC-XT+ 03:11, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and fix. It shouldn't be hard to change the text to match the image. -- Beland (talk) 19:17, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and reinstate my fix, per Beland. We shouldn't dignify any revert with a discussion. FleetCommand (Speak your mind!) 16:54, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, thanks for posting that fix. I put it back with a note explaining this data is from before the Microsoft Edge launch; I think that had caused some confusion contributing to the revert of the fix. This template is now completely sensical. -- Beland (talk) 19:07, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would love to speedy this, but there's no criterion to do so. This navbox template is on one article, and does nothing but redirect to the article. MSJapan (talk) 06:26, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as redundant to links... We've discussed such a CSD, before. I believe I said I'd support a CSD for navboxes transcluded on fewer than 3 pages. I don't know of a reason to keep them. I forgot why the criterion wasn't implemented. —PC-XT+ 06:45, 26 July 2016 (UTC) 08:17, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as non-conducive to building an encyclopedia. It is not a real navbox as it provides no helpful navigation. —Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 12:30, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete per criterion G6. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 17:28, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ah, thanks for reminding me G6 could be used for this! I think that's what I was trying to remember, above. —PC-XT+ 03:15, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete That's missing of information, i'm not afraid this template, i think only few information would be better more information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Junior5a (talk • contribs) 01:37, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
