Navigation template with only 2 unique target blue links remaining after article deletions. Little useful navigation for a non-defining attribute. • Gene93k (talk) 22:59, 7 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

WP-list templates 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 no consensus. Primefac (talk) 01:50, 25 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unused. (The first is simply a navbox for the other four.) These are intended create piped links for WP:AFD, WP:RFD, WP:COI and WP:NMUSIC to "avoid abbreviations", but the documentation does not say to SUBST them and the expanded text is inconsistent, arbitrary and hardcoded: "articles for discussion" and "redirects for discussion" all lowercase, but "Notability guidelines for music" with a capital N, and "Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy" (my emphasis).

Any editor can choose not to use the shortcuts just by linking the full WP page name, e.g. "Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion".

These are essentially, if not technically, hardcoded instances of a template that, given the name of a redirect, will output the name of its target. (I can't find we have such a template.) 84.236.27.55 (talk) 10:00, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep (as creator). I really don't see any reason listed above to delete these, and most of the arguments against them are WP:SOFIXIT issues, not deletion issues. I fail to see any benefit whatsoever from deleting these. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 17:51, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Highly generic non-free use rationale template. There's no presumption that stamps can be used for "illustration in an educational article about the entity represented by the image" - that would seem to cover all kinds of uses, from articles about the stamp, to its designer, to the thing that appears on it, and so on. This is not a case like an album cover where it is presumed that a single cover image meets the NFCC in the article on the album. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:53, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A navbox based upon a video game series. There's the first release, Rise of Nations, which has an expansion pack, Thrones and Patriots. A re-release of Rise of Nations with its expansion pack was released as Rise of Nations: Extended Edition, which redirects to Thrones and Patriots. A spin-off, Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends, is a similar type of game, but narratively not connected. Nothing that can't be handled by a link in a 'See also' section. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 16:35, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - not many links and no particularly high likelihood of future addition. --Izno (talk) 18:05, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
