Template:WPBannerMeta (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

All transclusions have been replaced with Module:WikiProject banner — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:48, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, for history and documentation purposes. Redirect it to the module if need be, but do not delete. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 00:55, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. A template should never redirect to a module. The code of WPBannerMeta has served its purpose and as code tends to do, it got replaced with newer and better code. There is no reason to keep it around and do nothing (and require ongoing maintenance). Gonnym (talk) 01:42, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If Template talk:WPBannerMeta can redirect to Module talk:WikiProject banner, then so can the template. This causes no issues, nor does it require 'ongoing maintenance'. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 01:47, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Kind of tend toward a redirect to Module:WikiProject banner/doc. I agree with the position that it is inappropriate to redirect a template namespace page to a module namespace page given the expectation involved with interacting with each in wikitext. I'm thinking beyond my usual delete here for two reasons, one is the complexity and edit history here, the other is that it's been used for a long time and people will accordingly want to know where it went, and we can save them a redirection. Izno (talk) 03:10, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Izno's idea redirect idea works for me. I agree with Gonnym's idea ("translated" a bit) that a template's code page should not redirect to a module's code page (being very different kinds of pages), but this is a way around that concern, and also addresses Headbomb's keep-the-history concern. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 04:56, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Would prefer deletion because I want it to be obvious when someone tries to use it (as they inevitably will). Maybe a soft redirect with a warning or something? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:35, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Look at {{cite doi}} for inspiration for the warning. E.g. Attention: This template ({{cite doi}}) is deprecated. To cite the publication identified by doi:10.5555/example, please use {{cite journal}} (if it was published in a bona fide academic journal, otherwise {{cite report}} with |doi=10.5555/example instead. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 02:48, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that's quite reasonable. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 07:29, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject banners are not made sufficiently often to need either. Transcluding a documentation page instead of the intended banner should be warning enough. Izno (talk) 16:29, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Some kind of deprecation notice would be a good idea. -Kj cheetham (talk) 13:32, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Soft redirect and deprecation notice: per MSGJ and Headbomb. voorts (talk/contributions) 16:03, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Deprecate and mark as {{Historical template}}: Because it was used extensively up until very recently. —CX Zoom[he/him] ^{(let's talk • {C•X})} 15:03, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
delete, no need for a deprecation notice since anyone trying to use it will have a link to to this discussion if they click on the redlinked template. Frietjes (talk) 18:08, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
