Fails 4/5 criteria of WP:NAVBOX - the award isn't mentioned in most of these biographies, the articles don't refer to one another, there isn't a Wikipedia article about the award (it's not even mentioned in The Magic Circle article) and the articles would not be linked by see-alsos. The navbox is also three years out of date. Gapfall (talk) 18:25, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Infobox royal house with Template:Infobox family.
Completely redundant dublication of parametres, all collected inside Template:Infobox family. A merge would follow suit in the same way that the redundant Template:Noble house met a decision of merge with Template:Infobox family, as proposed here.

none of these data templates are used outside of userspace, and have generally been replaced by the {{Dutch municipality population}}, {{Dutch municipality total area}}, ... templates. the advantage of the population, total area, etc templates is that it's easier to update all the municipalities with one edit, rather than editing a bunch of individual templates. and, even then, the data table templates are generally being deprecated in favour of using wikidata for storing population and area data.

Following the report here, I looked into this template and found it highly problematic. It lists some Korean companies classified as 'Chaebol' but criteria for listing are unclear. It lists Top 10 but we don't have any top 10 list, Top 10 changes yearly. It lists 'others' and 'defunct', but those list are clearly incomplete as again we don't have any referenced list to base them on (linked Korean template has more entries but same problem of lack of sources). If we had a referenced list we could have a template listing Top 10 chebols by year or decade or such, but without a referenced list this template is pure and chaotic OR. In other words, this template may be omitting important entries, listing entities that should be on it, have major update-needed problems, and we have no way currently to verify any of this.

Deprecate and convert to {{error}} - the listed functionality is already provided by the better known {{tls}}, and many transclusions are instead the result of users mistakenly trying to substitute something but using a pipe instead. Converting to an error would make it very easy to find these cases. – Train2104 (t • c) 15:20, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose When I accidentally use this it is good to get the result that I do. If it just says error, it will not be helpful. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 07:22, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Graeme Bartlett: I'm not suggesting that this be redirected to {{error}}, rather it be converted to a transclusion of it, with a helpful error message. – Train2104 (t • c) 01:11, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
