{{The Fellowship of the Ring/Plot summary}}'s sole use is to store article text, namely the plot summary for The Fellowship of the Ring, for the purposes of transcluding onto the main FOTR and LOTR pages (in direct contravention to WP:TG). The template's task doesn't need a template; a labeled section transclusion from the FOTR article to elsewhere will also do the same thing without one. I thus propose to substitute the template back onto The Fellowship of the Ring, delete this template, and carry out the desired transclusion as a labeled transclusion. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

  • Delete per nom. This appears to be the exact right solution for the task at hand. Axem Titanium (talk) 20:57, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I've added two other LOTR book summary templates that face the exact same problem as the originally nominated FOTR template. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 00:33, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - the templates prevent the summaries from diverging. If we substitute and delete, people will certainly continually edit the texts in the main LOTR and the three individual volumes-of-LOTR articles, and they will then certainly diverge, to no purpose.

    @Chiswick Chap The proposal is for them to be transcluded from the article about each volume onto the LOTR article. —Lights and freedom (talk ~ contribs) 15:35, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh I see. Yes, that will be all right. Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:57, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom, as the labeled section transclusion will prevent divergence. Techie3 (talk) 03:14, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Convert all to labeled sections per nom and then delete. SpinningSpark 13:16, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    On second thoughts, these have substantial edit histories, especially the first one. The history needs to be kept for attribution purposes. So either archive at talk sub-pages, or else mark as historical with {{historical}}. SpinningSpark 15:31, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Redirecting these to their respective articles is also a possibility? — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 16:39, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not actively opposed to redirecting, but I will note that most of the original edit history of this text lives at their respective articles before it was copy+pasted into this template. Even the Fellowship template, which has the longest history, amounts to objectively very minor changes, if you can even call it that. Axem Titanium (talk) 21:05, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Libera.Chat. {{Channel}} can be taken to RfD later over its poor name. (non-admin closure)Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 16:45, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Channel with Template:Libera.Chat.
Duplicate of existing template with minor changes, appears to be brought from meta. Potential for issues related to Wikipedia:IRC/wikipedia-en-help#Linking as Template:Channel does not alter its link when linking to #wikipedia-en-help PHANTOMTECH [TALK] 07:08, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment "channel" is a very bad name to use for a LiberaChat template -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 07:57, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Channel is the name of the IRC template on meta which I think is where it got its name. I agree that it's not a great name for a template to link to IRC channels. PHANTOMTECH [TALK] 08:25, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Provides insufficient navigation using a non-standard navbox. The main page doesn't even include it. Izno (talk) 06:23, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I replaced it with a standard box for the whole park which should do. The template is redundant Tobiasi0 (talk) 09:36, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
