The result of the discussion was delete. The template will be replaced with {{infobox railway}}/{{infobox station}}. (non-admin closure) Nihlus 04:01, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Template was used exclusively as an infobox for translation work. However, it does not appear to have been used since its original trans-wiki-editor stopped writing about trams in 2008/2009, and since it has not been worked on since, it probably has not captured any updates from offwiki.

This should be formatted as a shell for {{infobox railway}} or similar, substed, and then deleted. Izno (talk) 21:47, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete, unless someone wants to update it and mark it as {{subst only}} with the |auto= parameter set. Frietjes (talk) 14:42, 29 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete, I can't recall the reason I didn't use template:infobox station, but clearly these should be transitioned to that. This template has already been deleted on the French wiki in favor of something more standardized. Anything that can aid that transition with bots would be great, otherwise substituting the template until someone gets to it could work. gren グレン 03:39, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Links to only three articles, meaning it misses the soft requirement at WP:NENAN. Each of these can be meaningfully linked between each other. Izno (talk) 14:44, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete after adding see also links. Frietjes (talk) 15:07, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    It looks like Virtua Cop and Virtua Cop 2 link to both in the lead, and Virtua Cop 3 links to the first game in the lead also. So right now just missing a link to VC2 in the article on VC3. --Izno (talk) 15:14, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - This navbox made more sense when it was created, since back then the "Elite Edition" had its own article and there was a realistic prospect of further games in the series. As it stands now, it doesn't cover enough articles to be worth keeping.--Martin IIIa (talk) 15:24, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was move to List of major stock exchanges, merge with List of stock exchanges, and then redirect to preserve edit history for attribution. (non-admin closure) Nihlus 04:07, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why is this content here? It should be in mainspace, but instead it is here.

Thus, this fails WP:TG criterion one. This is a legitimate TfD reason per WP:TFD#REASONS.  — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)  05:46, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • move to "List of major stock exchanges" without redirect, then merge the content with List of stock exchanges using a redirect to preserve edit history for attribution. Frietjes (talk) 15:06, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agreed with Frietjes. --Izno (talk) 15:13, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agreed. Definitely not appropriate as a template. Galobtter (pingó mió) 07:05, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
