Template:Sutton 13 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

No indication that this "group" of 13 uni's is used outside the scope of one UK charity. Mtking (edits) 23:51, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support deletion - this was purely a group of universities identified by one charity for the purposes of enabling it to monitor social inclusion and a template is WP:UNDUE. The description of the 13 in the Sutton Trust article is sufficient.Rangoon11 (talk) 12:07, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This isn't a formal association of universities, just a list compiled by the Sutton Trust and so I don't think it warrants a template. Cordless Larry (talk) 15:52, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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

According to WP:NAVBOX, a navigational template is for easing navigation between related and existing articles. On this template, Teargarden by Kaleidyscope, Vol. 1: Songs for a Sailor, Teargarden by Kaleidyscope, Vol. 2: The Solstice Bare, Vol. 3 and Owata all redirect back to Teargarden by Kaleidyscope. Sweet Relief Musicians Fund and The Tear Garden are completely irrelevant, and The Vampire Diaries and The Fool (Tarot card) are only marginally related. This only leaves four directly related articles—Oceania (album), A Song for a Son, Widow Wake My Mind (The Smashing Pumpkins song) (which probably wouldn't survive an AFD) and Freak (The Smashing Pumpkins song)—all of which are already collected on {{The Smashing Pumpkins}}. Fezmar9 (talk) 22:54, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Half the items are redirects, and another group of them should probably be removed altogether due to being irrelevant. Once you remove the things that shouldn't be on there, there's only 3 or so actual items, which is not enough to warrant the template, especially since those items are already on the overall band navbox.

Template:Ship fate box target (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Most of these are unused, see below, but this one is still being used in a handful of articles. I think it should be substituted and deleted, or, create a more advanced, single {{ship fate}} template which includes "target" as one of the options. I would have grouped this one with the ones below, but it is technically still in use. 198.102.153.2 (talk) 22:43, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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

This template was created five years ago and remains without a single transclusion (discounting the doc & the template page itself). It's a very simple mathematical function that can easily be coded using #expr. I suppose that it's not used because it's too simplistic to be worth having a template for. (I know I've coded the same thing with {{#expr:({{{1}}}>0)-({{{1}}}<0)}}.) JIMp talk·cont 02:44, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Cite GameFAQs (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The template is used on 3 articles to cite unreliable pages on the website. Per Wikipedia:WikiProject_Video_games/Sources#Unreliable_sources, GameFAQs is not generally considered a reliable source. Template is also superseded by, and a wrapper of, {{cite web}}. Odie5533 (talk) 16:50, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The page that it is used to cite are deemed reliable at WP:VG/S#Situational sources. It is the data page where the info comes from developers and shared databases across IGN, Gamespot, and others. If it is unreliable, then so is every date out there from any database.
There are a few select dates that are user-submitted and reviewed. Those are clearly marked as such. Those we do not consider reliable, but as mentioned, they will be clearly marked as such with the user's alias to give them credit. If they lack anything, they are from that database or sumbitted by the game's developer.
I will also note I reverted the long-standing change made by the nominator hereo the guideline in order to help get this template removed. There was no discussion at WT:VG/S or the main talk page prior to his nominator that would support this. I request this as a SPEEDY KEEP considering the circumstances.Jinnai 18:06, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
My change was not vandalism as your edit summary suggests. I did not even know this template existed when I made that change and it had absolutely nothing to do with this nomination. The change was made 6 days ago and is hardly long-standing. Your accusations clearly go against the fourth pillar of Wikipedia, are misguided, and false. --Odie5533 (talk) 19:27, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • We don't need wrappers for citation of every given website, especially those which aren't generally reliable sources. Nor does the argument for a speedy keep here carry any water. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) - talk 19:54, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • It is because there are numerous points we need to cite dates for release, and only such dates. The template is designed to reduce page load on larger articles and list articles with numerous links. It is being used and it is a reliable source for what I've mentioned above. It is designed in such a way that it cannot be used to cite anything but said page.Jinnai 03:18, 5 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
      • How does it "reduce page load" to call {{cite web}} through a wrapper template? You'd reduce load even more just by calling it directly. It's still not obvious why a sub-template is needed here: are you suggesting that using a sub-template somehow blesses these particular transclusions with "slightly more reliable" status? Because that's an editorial issue to be enforced with consensus on those few pages where this comes up rather than enforced through a template.

  • Delete overly specific, just use {{cite web}}. It saves what? Two characters? Yeah, that's really gonna save the strain. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 06:00, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's quite a pain in the ass when you have to add 50 cites to the same website that can be handled much more smoothly with a template.
    • Anyway, if this is deleted, I would ask that a bot go in and change the references to cite web because it'll impact multiple pages which will suddenly have unusable refs.Jinnai 03:09, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would ask that any vote to keep or delete this template wait until the discussion at WT:VG/S#Gamespot concludes. Gamespot shares the database with GameFAQs as noted from the link there and Gamespot is generally considered reliable for its dates. As the main arguments for deleting this are based on the fact that GameFAQs is was recently changed its status from a situational source (reliable for their release info page) to unreliable.Jinnai 22:42, 9 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete after replacement with a standard {{cite web}} template. If the author wants a fast method for generating these references, I would be happy to help him develop a shortcut in userspace which can be substituted to generate the same result (see above) and include the ref tags around it.

Template:WikiProject Myrtle Beach (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Deprecated, unused. —Justin (koavf)TCM07:02, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep for now - Althought his template is currently deprecated (only became so in the last month) I think we need to keep it for a little while longer along with the others associated to WikiProject United States. I will modify the template to be a wrapper and I think that will sufficiently solve the problem. I don't think there's any harm in leaving it for a while in case the project decides to break away from US. --Kumioko (talk) 14:46, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Even better. I'm for deletion then, after we've changed any uses of it to use {{Cumbrian Coast Line RDT}} instead. There's no even a problem with size. Andy Dingley (talk) 19:45, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
