The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template 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 keep mostly due to the lack of working merged template example.

Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 04:04, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Ahnentafel bottom with Template:Ahnentafel-compact5.
Suggest merging all preexisting templates in Category:Ahnentafel formatting templates into Template:Ahnentafel-compact5 (please note that the ones listed in the category but not here below were locked for unknown reasons). The final template would then be called perhaps simply Template:Ahnentafel. Reasons for this merge is that it should be possibly to merge with code into one single, unified template. This template would then possibly contain different amount of places - ergo generations - as is already the case, only that this could be indicated and visually exemplified in the template documentation in a more suitable way. This solution of one merged template would make only one such be the subject of discussion of style - arguably the preexisting one - which would then make biographical articles more consistent, and the template use more easy for Wikipedians to apply. Chicbyaccident (talk) 13:20, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

comment How do you suggest to make the new template easy-to-use? It sounds like you want one template. It seems quite easy to use e.g. {{Ahnentafel-compact4}} and {{Ahnentafel-compact4}}. Christian75 (talk) 12:11, 10 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep (do not merge) - It's easy enough to use the different templates. This is not a system that needs to be fixed. Also, no working template (with working example) has been proposed to replace these templates. - tucoxn\talk 14:46, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but feel free to create the single template and re-propose merging. I don't think we should agree to delete the current ones until the new one is ready and testable. --Bermicourt (talk) 20:54, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Tucoxn, SpartaN and others who actually use these templates and understand how they work. МандичкаYO 😜 10:38, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep because seriously, don't we have bigger problems? This is very easy to use and economical, and I get a great deal of information from these charts. Please find something else to do besides gripe about things that are working just fine. Iamvered (talk) 19:22, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep compact6 reaches to also hyperlink in two jumps to third cousins, which reasearch has shown to usually have healthier than average children. Also many military alliances and long-standing dynastic disputes in medieval age were based on relationships where the compact6 ahnentafel is useful.68.40.122.133 (talk) 05:43, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge. While this is clearly going to fail through lack of consensus, I'd strongly recommend creating the merged template as a proof-of-concept, as Bermicourt suggested. Given the numbering is consistent in Ahnentafeln, it shouldn't be too difficult to render generations conditionally. Once the template exists and can be shown with examples of different numbers of generations (and examples of more-unusual states, with only 1 or 2 members of a generation are populated for example, such as 20 and 21 but noone else from 16 onwards), then the argument might be more persuasive. — OwenBlacker (talk) 21:57, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep it is easy to understand and navigate and quite useful as a jumping off point for further research. Royalty2012 (talk) 22:50, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The templates have been working just fine for years and are found on (I would guess) hundreds if not thousands of articles that would be disrupted if one little line of code went wrong in some "new and improved" template. So please - Don't screw with a good thing! Leave it alone and go work on something that really, truly needs fixing. Textorus (talk) 10:54, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Honestly isn't a big problem. Why can't we keep it? It really doesn't matter, so let's not inconvenience users who've already got those pages bookmarked.--- Anonymous Nyan Cat(talk)

These templates are duplicates of each other. The inclusion of the subject's filmography violates WP:FILMNAV. This leaves the discography and publications sections; none of the topics have articles, so there is nothing to link. This leaves little to navigate, and is ultimately useless. xplicit 06:09, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
