July 3 edit

Template:Places of articulation mini sidebar 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 delete. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 13:20, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

None of the pages in the navbox use this template. It was used incorrectly on one page that isn't linked from this template which I removed. Gonnym (talk) 16:03, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Superseded by {{Articulation navbox}} Covered by {{Phonetics}}. Nardog (talk) 20:45, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Didn't even notice that template already has the same links. Even more unnecessary. --Gonnym (talk) 22:06, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per WP:COMMONSENSE. The benefits of this navbox are obvious: it improves a reader's ability to navigate from the central article—phonetics—to more specialized articles on subtopics. Instead of using multiple {{further}} templates or requiring readers to scan through the article for an in-text link, the navbox presents them with the relevant subarticles at once in an organized but unobtrusive manner. Deleting a useful navigational tool for readers because it doesn't contain a particular link or is not used on particular pages is absurd and contradicted by WP:ATD. Wug·a·po·des 20:49, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oh, I didn't realize this was a recent creation and was only used in Phonetics. In that case, I in fact very much prefer uses of {{further}} (or {{main}}). The links are also already in {{Phonetics}}. Nardog (talk) 21:00, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • How exactly does ATD fit here? An actual relevant guideline would be WP:SIDEBAR which among other things gives WP:BIDIRECTIONAL. This template not only does not link to Phonetics but is not even present on any of the pages it does link. The section already links to Place of articulation using {{main}} and regular links to other pages in the actual article, without needlessly placing a sidebar in the middle of an article. --Gonnym (talk) 22:05, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete, redundant to {{Phonetics}}. Frietjes (talk) 15:52, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Manner of articulation 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 delete manner of articulation. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 13:07, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Manner of articulation with Template:Articulation navbox.
Template has been tagged as deprecated and to replace with {{Articulation navbox}}. Gonnym (talk) 16:00, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Full support per nom. Ed6767 talk! 16:43, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would prefer deletion. MOA and ArtNav are used in different parts of the article, so redirecting one to the other could actually cause problems. As the one who deprecated it, though, I have no problem with either outcome. Wug·a·po·des 20:28, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete {{Manner of articulation}}. We might also want to delete Template:Place of articulation (I don't understand why this was redirected when the Manner one is tagged for merging). The new navbox encompasses both places and manners, and sidebars are not equivalent to a navbox. Nardog (talk) 20:48, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Nardog: I had replaced all the transclusions of {{Place of articulation}} so redirection didn't affect anything. I never got around to doing the transclusions of {{Manner of articulation}} so redirecting that would cause problems. Wug·a·po·des 20:58, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Wugapodes: Right, I should have checked the transclusions. Was it your intention to let the navbox supersede the MOA template like you did with POA? Nardog (talk) 21:11, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Yep, just forgot I never finished this one. I placed the deprecated tag to dissuade further use until I found time to replace the transclusions. Wug·a·po·des 21:27, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete {{manner of articulation}}, a navbox works better (takes up less room in the prose section of the page). Frietjes (talk) 15:53, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:PHL sports results header 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 merge to Module:Sports results. (non-admin closure) --Trialpears (talk) 10:55, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:PHL sports results header with Module:Sports results.
Template family has been tagged as deprecated and that Module:Sports results should be used instead. WP:TFD/H is the correct place for this process. Note: I placed the footer and row in a noinclude so it won't break the table. Change if necessary. Gonnym (talk) 15:38, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • No opposition, as we've been merging these for months already, but there are still 100 or so articles that have to be converted to the new one. Howard the Duck (talk) 16:22, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge Seems like a usual practice to merge these. Otinflewer (talk) 15:52, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • I will be adding some of the pages that are currently red, I just haven't gotten to them yet. PensRule11385 (talk) 20:19, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to sandbox of PensRule and remove mainspace uses until such time as we hit the good NENAN minimum. --Izno (talk) 15:22, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
