Unnecessary, uses a single article heavily. Morever, Template:Lanka Premier League already exists. Empire AS Talk! 09:25, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete seems unnecessary. It's trancluded on 5 articles which are there at AfD. Empire AS Talk! 08:03, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete Most of the links are to the same article, so it's overly complicated. The remaining ones are the 5 team articles which people might want to navigate between. Nigej (talk) 10:29, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Street grid of landmarks in the 19th-century Los Angeles business district edit

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template(s) or module(s) 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. There is a weak consensus here to delete. There is no prejudice against nominating the other related maps, nor is there prejudice against re-making this map using something other than the table format currently being used. Primefac (talk) 02:44, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a procedural nomination, as the template in question was originally in the article space; upon moving, the AFD that was open was closed as a moot point. Many of the concerns expressed about this page as an article also hold true as a template ("WP is not a map", "improper as a table", etc). Primefac (talk) 18:16, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Keizers, Hog Farm, Reywas92, and Power~enwiki: you have been pinged here as the primary contributors to the above-mentioned AFD. Primefac (talk) 18:17, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete it's equally as pointless as a template and practically unreadable. GRINCHIDICAE🎄 18:27, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep it’s embedded on several pages as a map-based guide to the architecture (current and former) in Downtown Los Angeles. It most certainly not “pointless”.Keizers (talk) 21:49, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment not sure yet. It was clearly inappropriate as a stand-alone page; I'm less convinced it's inappropriate in articles. It's unwieldy, but an image map wouldn't be unreasonable. {{Street grid of landmarks in Los Angeles Plaza area}} should probably be bundled here. power~enwiki (π, ν) 20:10, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I also created templates for the Financial District and Historic Core, in addition to the Plaza and the Victorian CBD. FWIW, I've changed my focus to starting up my own site dedicated to the Victorian CBD. The main issue here is, to me, that a street grid adds a HUGE understanding to understanding what was where, and the geographical relationships of the buildings. All of this in a city (the Victorian CBD) that existed and is 99% obliterated. I can't think of a way to do it except for tables, where after I move on, someone else could keep it updated. Well, a Vector map with links is possible, but I started that and just wasn't willing to invest the man-days in creating it. On my own site I'll be freer, at least. If the current table-based map is unwieldly I wonder if it would help to have a separate map for each of the 3 major thoroughfares - Main, Spring, Broadway. It would make it narrower and there would only be two column of information to read. I'd be willing to do that.Keizers (talk) 19:59, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete looks confusing and hard to follow. Agree with prax that it's practically unreadable. If a reader actually wants this info, they'd just go to Google Maps. Far easier format to follow. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 13:41, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Do we really need separate templates for every single match while most of them never used in any other article? I think it's better to merge them all with the main page. the same as this case or this one. Mohsen1248 (talk) 21:29, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. after replacement with a navbox and either an image or infobox as appropriate. Primefac (talk) 02:39, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

List is collapsed by default. Hides the image on mobile (the image should be retained in the articles when the template is removed). Redundant to {{Antonio Vivaldi}} - readers are better served by that horizontal navbox, at the foot of articles. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:38, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as redundant, and not our normal, expected way of navigating. While some sidebars exist, they are for top-level topics and their key articles of most encyclopedic importance. We don't use them for things like an individual composer and their individual works. That's what page-bottom navbars are for (when even those are justified, which is less often than people try to create them, given the frequency of their deletion at TfD). This particular thing appears to be some weird pseudo-infobox. Just use an infobox, or just use an image, don't invent a confusing and redundant infobox–image–nav hybrid. It just looks like a broken, confusing infobox that is missing all the information it should have. Same goes for all of the same sort of templates nominated below.  — SMcCandlish ¢ 😼  07:43, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per above and similar discussions. This is a navbox pretending to be an infobox, not our normal style ,and we already have a perfectly good navbox, ie {{Antonio Vivaldi}}. Nigej (talk) 17:40, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    • There is ample evidence that the community holds this to be the case; every single such opera composer nominated for deletion in recent months - many with that in the rationale - has been deleted (including batches on September 28, October 5, October 8, December 20, December 28). Not a single one of them has been kept. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 17:27, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • That other stuff at best demonstrates that some editors prefer one acceptable style over another; that neither demonstrates cause for deletion nor proves that one is better for readers than the other.

        • That does not fail WP:OTHERSTUFF because, as is clear, it evidences that community believes that Readers would be better served by a horizontal navbox, at the foot of articles. The November 16 discussion showed "no consensus" (and the closer advised that "templates be nominated on per-composer basis", as done here), but the subsequent discussion, and those before then, have without exception all showed consensus to delete every single such opera composer sidebar nominated for deletion in recent months. Just as it is beginning to become apparent that the same consensus holds for all the individual opera sidebars nominated on this occasion.

    I made a horizontal navbox. Half of the articles are one-line stubs, and the sidebar with a large image looks out ridiculous next to it, imho. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:23, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    You know that the reason to keep the sidebar for Rinaldo is that one editor threatened to leave Wikipedia. That is no reason to keep a template with with all the disadvantages listed by Andy and SMC for other works. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:29, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    The discussion (2016) was held at Talk:Handel's lost Hamburg operas#Infobox?. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:55, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    That discussion does not clarify matters. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:58, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    It clarifies for me that Brianboulton defended the uniform sidebar for that composer (while his opera articles have infoboxes), possibly due to the plea "The template, with the same picture of the composer, is a unifying image for the series and allows easy exploration of one work to another. Please, please leave it there on Handel opera articles." --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:55, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    That same argument applies for several different templates where a uniform sidebar has been used. It rather underlines the question of why one example would be more valid than another, rather than resolving it. Nikkimaria (talk) 13:46, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The November 16 discussion showed "no consensus" (and the closer advised that "templates be nominated on per-composer basis", as done here), but the subsequent discussion, and those before then, have without exception all showed consensus to delete every single such opera composer sidebar nominated for deletion in recent months. Just as it is beginning to become apparent that the same consensus holds for all the individual opera sidebars nominated on this occasion.
