All of them are not used, and I don't think we need them either, because I think it's much faster to just look up which symbol means what, instead of figuring out that such templates exist. --TheImaCow (talk) 20:29, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete agree with nom. Addtionally, if these templates were to be recreated, a single template with parameters would be a better option.--Tom (LT) (talk) 23:06, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 18:47, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This template has created a linkfarm with more than 1000 external links to a commercial website that appears to lack notability. This links appear to advertise a commercial website. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 06:00, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. That is not what a "linkfarm" is, a statistical database that is linked to does not require any form of notability, and is not "advertising" in the slightest. The nominator posted on the template talk page and I asked for clarification by what they meant by the template being "abusive", and they did not reply, instead going straight to a deletion nomination instead of having their concerns addressed via discussion, which seems both premature and indicates a lack of understanding of how Wikipedia works. The purpose of this template is to link racing drivers' pages to the statistical database at driver-database, which is a well-established and respected statistical database for racing drivers. Also note that the editor also asked about this at the Help Desk and was advised it did not seem to be spam and was advised to discuss the issue - which they failed to do. - The Bushranger One ping only 06:31, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per The Bushranger. Additionally, fixing broken links (URLs will like be used even if this template doesn't exist) is much easier using this sort of template.--Tom (LT) (talk) 23:06, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per all of the above; at the risk of sounding a bit 'OSE' these templates (of which several exist) for linking to sporting databases considered reliable are pretty useful. Eagleash (talk) 06:56, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above, linking to a database of results is perfectly valid, especially considering Wikipedia doesn't cover results of entry-level formulae on driver articles (e.g. Formula 4, Formula Ford, karting).

Navbox that only links to pages in draft space; questionable application of MOS:DRAFTNOLINK here but I believe it applies to templates as well. Jalen Folf (talk) 03:46, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  •   Note: Multiple times the author has moved this template to draftspace and they along with an IP editor (which I assume is the editor logged out) have all tried to remove the TFD tag from the template. Courtesy pinging Hedgeswayd to this discussion again in an effort to get them to defend their template. Jalen Folf (talk) 07:50, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    They're now trying to userfy it, but not responding to concerns here and on their talk. I think it's fine to close this as userfied by creator if this isn't an attempt to avoid discussion and is a genuine userification. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 08:29, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As the creator I am actually fine with getting it deleted. It is going to end up merged with Module:Graph anyway (as the latter does not have horizontal bars).--Snaevar (talk) 10:46, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
