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

No transclusions. This page was apparently not necessary, since Wikipedia:WikiProject Louisville/Hot articles exists and is updated by a bot. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:31, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete. I created this. Oddly, I was going to ask for this (and its subpage styles.css) to be deleted. I created it as a way to restyle the hot list entries in WP:WikiProject Louisville/Hot articles for an infobox. But in the past couple days I figured out how to get that working within the WikiProject pages, avoiding the need of this template. If this can be speedied, that would be fine by me.

Template:EA Sports NASCAR Series (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused succession template, apparently replaced by the more thorough {{EA Sports NASCAR series}} navbox. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:23, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Chinese criminal case (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Undocumented infobox template with only non-English parameter names, used in one draft article. That draft could probably use {{Infobox criminal}} or a similar infobox. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:26, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I, the author, have been replaced with a more generic existing template, so I also agree to delete it. Hzt0208042508415531 tw (talk) 03:56, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Open talk issue (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused. Places talk pages into a deleted category, so this template itself should probably be deleted. DB1729^talk 14:36, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:CEN noticeboard (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Template:CEN-notice is a much better alternative. Because it is substituted with a date stamp, it is less likely that users will stumble upon a stale notice. Schierbecker (talk) 07:21, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Solar System navmap 2 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

No transclusions. Also missing Pluto. I miss Pluto. Created in May 2023. – Jonesey95 (talk) 07:11, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it hurts to leave it. It connects better visually than the other. And it's intended to only show the IAU 8 planets; Pluto would only be a dot at that scale anyway. — kwami (talk) 07:15, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- It's not used. If it should be used, add it to the article. Gonnym (talk) 08:56, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- It may be visually more representative, but that makes its accessibility as an article navigation aid appalling. If this is intended to be usable as a way to navigate to the smaller planets and the moons, they need to have their hit areas significantly adjusted.

The result of the discussion was delete. There is no prejudice against this template being recreated as a "message" style template similar to {{ANI-notice}}. Primefac (talk) 10:53, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:BLP noticeboard (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This should be replaced with a substitutable template. This template is transcluded on 413 pages and in most cases with no date attached so there is no way of telling how stale it is. I found examples of this that were applied in 2016. Schierbecker (talk) 07:03, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subst current version as a talk message or just delete current uses. What a horrible implementation of such a template. This should either be created as a talk page discussion notification message or possibly added to {{WikiProject Biography}} as a parameter (which will suffer from the same problem but at least cause less clutter). Whichever way, leaving this is a stand alone banner that no one cares to remove (20ish active discussions vs over 400 transclusions) is not an option (unless someone wants to create and maintain a bot to remove these when removed from Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard). Gonnym (talk) 09:03, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Non-functional template that ages poorly and, if used as a banner (its design indicates that it should be used as a banner), it becomes a banner carrying false information. What it says is wrong ~95% of the time. Not needed as a banner, and not needed as a template. Editors should just post a notification at the bottom of the talk page, and a template isn't needed for that, and if a graphical element is desired, just use one of the general WP:DISCUSSIONTEMPLATES (e.g.: " Note: I've brought up the issues discussed above at WP:BLPN"). —Alalch E. 19:06, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
