The result of the discussion was delete after converting to either {{rail-interchange}} or {{rail color box}} as appropriate. Primefac (talk) 00:19, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty, but only used in six articles. MOS is against usage of background colours under text in prose; should be replaced with {{rail-interchange}} in tables and regular links elsewhere, and then userfied. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
to reply to me 15:18, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Could also be replaced with {{rail color box}}, if that's preferable, but I don't think it's usually used in UK articles. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
to reply to me 15:19, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever. I don't agree with the MOS on this issue but I'm not going to contest deletion. It was nice while it lasted. Cnbrb (talk) 16:04, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There is no reason there should be exceptions on articles from following WP:NPOV. Unused and undocumented. ∼∼∼∼ Eric0928Talk 13:07, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Change to the following version:

and then move to {{cleanup-commentary}} without a redirect. KATMAKROFAN (talk) 22:37, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy delete as T2. No articles are exempt from WP:NPOV Pppery 02:13, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment/Clarification: I created the template specifically because Wikipedia:Top 25 Report had blatant POV, slanderous, and hurtful statements (they were hyper-partisan and very offensive, and several editors agreed with me). I was convincingly told that because the page was outside mainspace, NPOV did not apply. However, because many viewers would not know this and think this hyper-partisanship was actually Wikipedia's voice, I created this template and proposed it to be used on the article. --1990'sguy (talk) 13:41, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete template title is misleading; comments are better directed at talk pages; this template unnecessarily politicises articles. --Tom (LT) 00:11, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
Not notifying the reader of partisian commentary on non-mainspace articles (as in Wikipedia:Top 25 Report) will do more harm. --1990'sguy (talk) 04:15, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Producers and mixers do not get their own navboxes like this. Take away the songs that he only produced and did nothing else on, and you only have two links, thus violating WP:NENAN. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 23:32, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I'm pretty sure this template serves no more use than sticking *, †, or ‡ to denote that a source was used in the body of the text. Referring specifically to the Dreyfus article above, I think using † would make the references section much less visually cluttered. No need to make things more complicated. What the French Wikipedia does is largely not our concern. Primefac (talk) 15:43, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
