Template:Userbox/HotWheels


Unused. ~ Rob 13 Talk 10:54, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Used on a userpage prior to blanking with retired.  When he returns (something that should be assumed by default), it would be unwelcoming, off-putting, for him to discover his userboxes were deleted.  "unused" is not a good reason for deletion, unlike "never used".  This one was used.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:53, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
 * See WP:TFD. Currently unused is a valid rationale for deletion of templates, and we do not retain templates with no current transclusions. We have an entire database report dedicated to identifying and eliminating them, actually. (As an aside, this lack of understanding about the template namespace is why userboxes in the template namespace should be handled at TfD, in my opinion.) I wouldn't oppose userfying if you'd prefer that, or leaving the door open for WP:REFUND if he comes back and cares to use the template. ~ Rob 13 Talk 23:04, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
 * I dispute that that reason is a good reason and want to see it rejected. Unused templates are better left alone.  Too much clutter?  Navigation systems are needed, categories and navigation templates.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:12, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
