Template:Userbox Wikimania 2025

 * – (View MfD) &#8203;

It's not necessary. It created it too early. Q28 (talk) 04:34, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * No objection to deletion. Given the events of the past two years, it was overly optimistic to assume that Wikimanias would continue into perpetuity without a hitch. BD2412  T 04:54, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. And I've moved this discussion from TfD to MfD since it's a userbox. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:04, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete jumping the gun, and once WM25 happens (or is canceled etc.) it will be irrelevant anyway and just be replaced by a past-tense box or deleted entirely. Dronebogus (talk) 08:56, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Meh - No good reason to create it; no good reason to waste time creating a discussion about whether to delete it. It's not doing anything just sitting there; now it's just sitting there and we have a whole other page dedicated to it at MfD. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 22:09, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep I like the optimism. Well within UBCR as the event is highly likely to ocour. Not excessive, not bringing the encyclopaedia into disrepute. so not UPNOT.   Wakelamp d&#91;@-@&#93;b (talk) 14:34, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete It has not occurred yet, but even if it had - not clear how this is a good use of the project's server space.People can put this type of thing on their own personal social media pages. Royal Autumn Crest (talk) 05:00, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Worth pointing out that deleting a page doesn't free up any space. It's always there; it's just hidden. Nominating it for deletion and deleting it not only creates additional versions of that page, but creates this whole additional page which takes up far more server space, to the extent that matters. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 05:08, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I was unaware of that before now, someone else pointed it out as well. Still believe it should be deleted. Unclear how this (or for that matter any userbox) improves the encyclopedia in any way. Royal Autumn Crest (talk) 11:54, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
 * They're mostly rubbish, perhaps a coherent argument could be made for the ones that are directly linked to usercats since CFD still somewhat has it's shit together on policing those. However their continued existence is a result of a long-standing compromise that emerged from one of the most sustained periods of sitewide disruption in Wikipedia's history (a true ForestFire), and is therefore probably best left undisturbed. If you really want more feedback WP:VPI would be the way to go. Regards, 213.193.27.121 (talk) 15:25, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Userboxes are largely useless, but also by-and-large completely harmless. Railing against them usually just makes you look like the no-fun brigade. The only reason I voted on this one was because it was borderline nonsensical. Dronebogus (talk) 02:34, 13 December 2021 (UTC)


 * If kept, Move to User:UBX/Wikimania 2025 or Template:User Wikimania 2025, per WP:UBXNS. (Very picky, I know, but having these outlier names makes lists of unused templates more difficult to parse.) – Jonesey95 (talk) 02:40, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
