January 18[edit]

Template:Joke alert[edit]

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 redirect to Template:Humor. The counterargument against the sole keep argument is convincing. I see the userfication request, but it's not clear why it would be better than redirection. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:09, 26 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redundant with and inferior to Template:Humor. Only used correctly as a template message on one page, which already uses {{humor}}. Bsherr (talk) 22:05, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I 👍 Like it. Let's give it a year and, if it's still unused, then we can re-nominate. --Doug Mehus T·C 21:40, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It was created in 2011. It's already had eight years. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:51, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Pigsonthewing, Still, there's no reason to delete it yet. We, notionally, have no deadlines. If this is leaning to delete, closer, as an alternative to deletion, you may move to User:Dmehus/Templates/Joke alert. Thanks. Doug Mehus T·C 21:53, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect A fork with the exact same purpose {{Humor}}. We should have one consistent message if there isn't any special reason to have multiple, since it has had next to no proper usage in 8 years there clearly isn't a demand for an alternative version. If Dmehus wants it in his user space I have no issues with that. ‑‑Trialpears (talk) 22:50, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was redirect to Template:Lancia timeline 1980–2019. (non-admin closure) ‑‑Trialpears (talk) 10:03, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In December 2019 a user created this template as an exact copy of an established in 2007 existing template. No need for both to exist. Correct one: Template:Lancia timeline 1980–2019. YBSOne (talk) 20:10, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect Template:Lancia timeline 1980-2019 to Template:Lancia timeline 1980–2019. Almost duplicates. But the latter is superior, at the superior page name, and older. --Bsherr (talk) 22:18, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
