Template:Bankura 2011 election summary 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. (non-admin closure) Frietjes (talk) 15:17, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is a major issue with all of these templates, the first being the majority of all of these are used in multiple constituencies' articles making it difficult to understand the point of their creation. Obviously, it's for election results in the specific district but I am confused as to which one. The template's names are for districts in the Indian state of West Bengal, but how could multiple constituencies use one overall template? Another issue is the information on the templates isn't entirely clear as well. It just lists how many seats a party lost or gained. No information on votes or the percentage of the vote.

The majority of these don't have a proper election mainspace article as if there was one for the template subject matter, it would be redundant because the article most likely uses a different table for the results, based on overall results and by constituency.

And all except two are used on an election mainspace. That is Template:Purba Medinipur 2021 election summary on the 2021 Nandigram controversy article. And Template:West Bengal elections, 2011 - Results (summary) on the 2011 West Bengal Legislative Assembly election. Technically, this one counts as single-use and since it's used on an article of a related subject matter, that is the election article. Then these two should be substituted onto the election articles and removed from the constituency articles.

Template:KMC 2015 election summary is used on 144 ward articles adding another level of confusion to the purpose of this template. This template in my view should not be substituted given how many articles it is on. And will make things harder for any editor to do so. I think this template should be outright deleted because each one of these ward articles has information in a similar fashion on a different table, but is basic information about the party and party member representation.

Template:Bardhaman 2016 election summary and Template:Kolkata 2011 election summary are both unused and qualify for deletion. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:53, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I cannot see the point of these templates. They seem to be exclusively used on constituency articles, but are not about the results in that constituency (which are detailed in a separate table). They are definitely non-standard and don't seem to be adding anything useful to Wikipedia. Number 57 22:24, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Most of these templates were added by me. I had in mind the addition of district-wise election pages. However, while working on the election pages I found that there were many people, with clear political leanings, who were trying to tilt the pages their way. I gave up working on these pages, except occasionally. Now, most of the West Bengal election pages are outdated and without the district election pages, these tables/ navboxes loose their utlity. Thanks for keeping me informed. - Chandan Guha (talk) 00:51, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This template is of low quality and should be removed. First, it is incomplete. There have been 20 presidents of the university system (19 people – Ikenberry served two nonconsecutive terms); this template only lists 8 of them. Second, there already exists a much better template: Template:Leaders of the University of Illinois, which has a broader use and actually appears on the pages it lists.

Both contain majority red links. If the red links were to be removed, it still would not be enough to justify remaining. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:43, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I think these are valid templates/redlinks. The elections themselves are notable. Number 57 11:43, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
But it would fail the rule of four I believe it's called for navboxes to be used. The 2015 template has only three links. It's too short. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 14:19, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This template is used on three articles of the candidates listed, and there shouldn't be this kind of template since it's not candidates for President or the Prime Minister of India. And templates for the two latter positons don't exist from what I can tell. Also, this template is for candidates who represent local districts for the city of Mumbai making this template either or both CREEP and trivial. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 14:37, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well meaning but not necessary for a young, up-and-coming player. Not helpful for navigation as it only contains two unique pages - and the career achievements page is heading for a SNOW close or at least an eventual deletion. No obvious routes for expansion. There can be no comparison to something like Template:Cristiano Ronaldo series. Even major players like Gareth Bale or Neymar do not have series templates - it is only for incredibly notable individuals. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 12:49, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:GA pass with Template:GA inline.
GA pass is used inline to indicate that a link is to a Good Article and displaying the date the article was promoted. GA inline is also used inline to indicate that a link is to a Good Article, but can also be used without the date of promotion. GA pass is not used in any situations in which the display of the date is necessary for a process or for consistency. Accordingly, uses of GA pass can be converted to GA inline, and that is what I propose. Bsherr (talk) 07:02, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
