Template:SimpsonsSeason1 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Orphaned template. There are no other season navigation bars for other seasons, and the infoboxes on each episode already contain a list of episodes for the season. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 23:58, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Khonkaen F.C. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Khon Kaen Province is the geographical area, i.e. not part of the topic. Honours is a section link to the already linked main article. None of the other articles (apart from the main article) actually exist. Jameboy (talk) 23:31, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Delete. I deleted a navbox on this topic per a previous TFD in December, and re-creations of similar content have been speedy deleted. I was notified of this template for possible speedy deletion, but decided to let the discussion go to see if there was any difference in the consensus now. There isn't.

Support this nomination, though on the one third one the articles still using it should be edited before it is deleted. Not sure of the usual procedure but will you be notifying the relevant wikiproject (WT:RL)? LunarLander // talk // 22:42, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Was pretty useful when the parser function #time didn't exist yet, but now no longer needed and replaced in {{Rfd2}}. Note: Currently a redirect, but was used as a template, thus listing here instead of RfD. The Evil IP address (talk) 20:18, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:TEA district rating (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Though well-intentioned, this template by its nature requires that any of the hundreds of articles that would use it must be updated annually as their status changes. Since the template is changed each year with the current year, any article using it that is not immediately updated with the information for that new year may be stating false information (e.g. a district may have been Exemplary in 2009-2010 but when the template gets changed to say 2010-2011 the article may become automatically inaccurate if its status changed in the new year). IMHO, it is ill-advised to create templates that can make an article automatically become untrue (i.e. stale info is ok if it is qualified with when the info was valid. But having an article state that info is current as of 2010 when it was really only true in 2007 is a serious problem). Mcorazao (talk) 20:51, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and rename to Template:2009–2010 TEA district rating or similar. Looks like a useful navbox, but I agree that annually updating hundreds of articles is not easy. I suggest creating a new template each year to facilitate this; renaming this template will allow the templates to be kept on all current pages, with new templates such as Template:2010–2011 TEA district rating being added to articles as necessary. Airplaneman 17:30, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - If we cannot keep it current, I don't see the point in having this template, nor do I agree with having a stable template for each school year. WhisperToMe (talk) 19:01, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Although this is formatted as a navbox, it is actually just a single piece of information, and thus would be better placed either as a sentence in the text or as an item in an infobox. This would also allow a reference note to properly qualify the information so that it would not be false even if it became dated. To avoid loss of information, I would suggest that a sentence about the rating be added when the template is removed. --RL0919 (talk) 13:51, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Airlines_of_Andorra (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages) - no links
Template:Airlines_of_Kosovo (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages) - one link, only used on that same page
Template:Airlines_of_Monaco (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages) - one link
Template:Airlines_of_San_Marino (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages) - no links

As detailed above, these templates either have no links whatsoever or only one, and all but {{Airlines of Kosovo}} is unused (the Kosovo template is only used on the page it links to). As the content of these templates is highly unlikely to change, there is no need to keep them around. One link does not need a navbox. - Mobius Clock 10:17, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
