Just like the first set, unused, red linked, a lot of them are unfilled with any information and are transcluded on a respective page on the same topic. The first three just redirect to the standings sections to the mainspace article. The ones titled for 2020 are now useless because the events were cancelled due to the pandemic. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:22, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm getting them from the unused templates database. The issue with these sports templates is that there are way too many. It's safe to assume they won't be used anywhere on Wikipedia. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 19:46, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep per discussions for the first set of mass noms. Re-do individually if necessary. Seany91 (talk) 07:32, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep for exactly the same reasons as the other "Miscellaneous Sports Templates" thread. You can't just bundle loads of random templates and expect users to know if all of them will be used in future or not. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:32, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@WikiCleanerMan, I understand that nominating each one seems pointless, but from experience here, people are mostly going to vote keep without taking the time to check. Better to split into individual nominations (or a group of the same type, like the 3 first ones). Gonnym (talk) 10:23, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Gonnym, I'll do that later today for Miscellaneous 1 and 2. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 15:37, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unused template with no valid article links. No anticipation that article series is to be created in the near future. SFB 21:34, 8 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per my original nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:18, 8 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

These aren't used anymore, probably not used since 2014 when the template switched to a module. Gonnym (talk) 15:34, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

S-line data modules

{{s-line}} templates for the Nuremberg S-Bahn and various regional services. Superseded by Module:Adjacent stations/Nuremberg S-Bahn. All transclusions replaced. There are 50 dependent s-line data modules that should also be deleted. Mackensen (talk) 12:22, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Slow template which is redundant to {{#invoke:String|sub}}/{{str sub}}/{{#invoke:ustring|sub}}. (Slow as in it has an expansion depth of about 15 for some reason and takes 3 times longer than {{#invoke:String|sub}} in a quick test.) Similar argument to TfD May 29 § Str crop. NB the subtemplate {{str mid/core}} has usage independent of the main template. User:GKFXtalk 10:03, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Not needed given the module options. -DePiep (talk) 10:07, 6 June 2021 (UTC) (creator, 2013)[reply]
  • Comment will you be moving {{str mid/core}} to take over {{str mid}} after deletion? It shouldn't remain at a subpage location if there is no parent template. It is also wholly lacking in documentation. -- 67.70.27.180 (talk) 03:55, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    From the single usage I have seen it’s not something we would plausibly want to keep, as it took a huge number of parameters just to calculate a substring. I was just noting that it will need checking separately before it actually gets deleted. User:GKFXtalk 06:15, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    All uses might be from Template:Cite Mullié and Template:JCW-CRAP-rank, which don't use the /core template directly. There doesn't seem to be any direct use of it independent of the main template. Gonnym (talk) 10:27, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Found it: Special:Diff/1027387906. As you can see it isn't something we would keep separately, I suspect the main template was substed for some reason. User:GKFXtalk 16:53, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

First set of many random sports templates that are unused, unlinked, filled with either bold and/or red links with no clear navigational or informational purpose. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 00:33, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page discussions. GiantSnowman 18:45, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all per nom. GiantSnowman 18:51, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: mass noms like these are not helpful and impossible to evaluate. I doubt the OP nor GS above me went through every single one and also checked where they are linked and used. The MLS table one, for example, looks populated with info correctly. Seany91 (talk) 18:56, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep this is a collection of templates from multiple sports that have no connections with each other, and so it is inappropriate to nominate them all together. Renominate them separately or in groups by same/similar sports competitions. But we can't make a blanket assumption for 25+ completely different templates. I support deleting 2020 Thailand Women's Quadrangular Series (as it never happened, this was the TfD nomination I saw)- but have no knowledge on most of the rest of the templates, so couldn't give a fair opinion on them. Which is why we shouldn't be bulking together random sets of templates into 1 TfD. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:08, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fixed. And for your argument for deleting just one should also apply to all of them as they are unused and won't be used in the future. Hence why I bundled all of them together. They are just taking up space for no other purpose. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:54, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
My point is that because I don't have any knowledge on what most of the other competitions listed here are, I can't make a proper judgement on whether they are likely to be used or not. If the competitions actually happened, then they're completely different to the one template I've commented on. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:58, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
For most of the templates that have information about a certain year for a specific division, there already exists the exact same information on the article, thus rendering the need for an individual template useless. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:06, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This comment from WikiCleanerMan shows why these mass noms should be speedy kept and redone if necessary. Many sports-related templates duplicate existing info in articles for precisely navigational or summarizing purposes (e.g., sports standings/tables, navboxes). Clearly he has not been involved in actively editing sports-related articles and is just mass nominating templates based on some categorical misunderstanding. Seany91 (talk) 07:30, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There is no misunderstanding. These templates haven't been used for the purpose they were created for. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 13:50, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Restructure this. This sort of heterogenous mass TfD for unused templates is not a bad idea but the voting is messy already and will probably get worse. It should probably be in a table with columns for support and delete so that any templates worth saving are clear. Broadly, I am in favour of deleting unused templates if no-one speaks for them, but any good templates should be kept and ideally put on an article somewhere. User:GKFXtalk 22:04, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep all. I added two to existing articles. Checking naming conventions and current/prior season years for usage prior to TfD seems like a minimum. Doubly so in a heterogenous mass nom like this. UW Dawgs (talk) 03:12, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You should wait for the Tfd to close before adding any templates to pages. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 13:50, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No they shouldn't wait, there is no reason for TfD to get in the way of normal editing. If the templates are able to find a useful home as a result of this nomination that is a good thing. User:GKFXtalk 17:50, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was speedy keep (withdrawn). (non-admin closure) User:GKFXtalk 17:56, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No reason to have templates for a specific season. No precedent I can think of in other sports leagues or in the NFL. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 23:30, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm recanting these nominations. I made an error in assumption with my nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:45, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
