Already covered by "disruptive editing" so we don't need this poorly worded, almost entirely unused template. There is no "highjacking" policy so this isn't backed by anything really. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:16, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I find it so badly written that deleting and writing a new template fro the ground up for this issue seems preferable. Highjacking is a very loaded term that strongly implies extreme bad faith on the part of the warned user, as opposed to just poor/uninformed editing. So, I'm not saying this isn't a thing, but I don't think this template is at all the correct response and we probably shouldn't be using the term "highjacking" at all.

  • Keep and reword if necessary. I've used it a couple of times (that's actually how I noticed it was up for deletion), and there are other occasions when I would have used it if I had known about the template. PohranicniStraze (talk) 03:07, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was merge. Valid reasons were given for getting rid of the module coding as unnecessary. Primefac (talk) 18:02, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Mli, Template:Mlix, Template:Module link and Template:Mlx.
{{mlx}} and {{mlix}} have the same function, {{module link}}/{{ml}} and {{mlx}} should also have the same function ({{module link}} shouldn't have the code tags it currently has, as {{mlx}} is meant for that). We should keep the documentations pages of {{mlix}} and {{mli}} as they are more complete but we should keep {{module link}}/{{ml}} and {{mlx}} as the names are shorter and follow similar naming to the {{tl}} family of templates. I'm also proposing that {{mlx}} should be replaced with {{#invoke:Module link|link}} and {{module link}} should be replaced with {{#invoke:Module link|link|code=yes}} to take advantage of Module:Module link. The module provides several advantages including allowing for an unlimited number to parameters and removing Module: and module: from the input. BrandonXLF (t@lk) 20:02, 8 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. The lack of use after 3+ years tips the scales ever so slightly into a weak consensus to delete. Primefac (talk) 17:55, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is unused and this is not a barnstar; it is a picture with a caption. Pkbwcgs (talk) 20:39, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Some good animal rights articles on Wikipedia deserve commendation. Of course, NOTHING REQUIRES commendation and recognition, but good contributions are important. An additional concern on internal processes within Wikipedia may be what appears to widespread 'rogue attacks' against topical content of this sort. I oppose deletion of this Barnstar template. Perhaps artistic improvements for this barnstar could be ssuggested. MaynardClark (talk) 20:42, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@MaynardClark: This template is not used at all and I found this from Wikipedia:Database_reports/Unused_templates/1. Pkbwcgs (talk) 20:49, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Good sleuthing. Perhaps some good sights deserve the template. I have never awarded a template. Should I? MaynardClark (talk) 20:53, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Barnstars and awards are often substed, hence have no transclusions. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 14:32, 29 December 2018 (UTC).[reply]
Rich Farmbrough, you might find Special:WhatLinksHere/File:Animalrightssymbol.jpg useful for a substituted template like this one. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 20:52, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unused. Intended for use with {{Infobox station}}; they were all created on the same day by a user who has made no other edits. Mackensen (talk) 00:35, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
