Discussion

 * It's funny, I was just about to do the awards switch. Primefac (talk) 21:35, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Could you please update your pages affected to indicate how many will be affected for each TFD outcome? Thanks. Primefac (talk) 02:17, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Done ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 07:00, 26 November 2020 (UTC)


 * 20 per template. If a template doesn't have that many transclusions, please indicate as such when you give the diffs. Primefac (talk) 23:25, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Kinda done for the Spoken Wikipedia ones. 20 for the main template, a couple for the others since I have to then revert them (I can't keep them atm since I can't sync the sandbox with support for multiple, till all the main usages are converted): Edits. Does this work? Will get around to the talk page ones at some point. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 00:19, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Edits for TfD #3: Edits (TfD #4 above). Good variety in there. Some I reverted deciding to add search_term to Talk header, to preserve that param, and then redid. Can see that being preserved in eg Special:Diff/990941464. Others are either just orphaned, or orphaned with a replaced talk header, depending on if talk header is already there. Some early on were duplicating talk header due to me forgetting one of its aliases (eg Special:Diff/990936497), and that was fixed. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 11:33, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
