Template:Doo-Wops & Hooligans track listing (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant navigation to {{Bruno Mars songs}} which lists each of the songs with articles and in the same order as the track listing. Plus, for some reason it was only added to one article by the template's author, making it unuseful, too. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 22:53, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: this template is used to add {{Extra track listing}} to the infobox, and the documentation for that template specifically states, "it should not be used if there is a navigation template or navbox at the bottom of the article which already lists the songs".

Template:W-short (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Welcomeshort with Template:W-short.
These two old short welcome templates are nearly identical. I propose that Welcomeshort be merged into W-short, since the latter has better documentation, and of the few differences, I prefer its version. Once merged, they should probably be moved to Template:Welcome short, a cleaner title. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 19:03, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support keep at Template:W-short as its the third most used template that's already integrated with twinkle.... renaming it would just cause work for everyone for no reason.--Moxy 🍁 21:31, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Twinkle seems to be able to handle renames fine; I checked recently for another template. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 23:07, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per above. Overall am strongly in favour of consolidating these sorts of templates and these are so similar in purpose they should be merged.--Tom (LT) (talk) 01:38, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and eventually move per suggestion. (I created Welcomeshort, the older one of the two.) ◀ Sebastian 05:12, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
