Script does not work (I tried it myself, probably because Google locked down their Custom Search API), appears to be dated pages. The main script page is already marked as historical, but I think the pages containing the various scripts should be deleted. Aasim (talk) 05:26, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Archive. If it was ever worth doing, it is worth archiving.  Out of date scripts should be editable and archivable without the overhead cost of deletion.  Deletion requires a discussion, an admin action, and the trust of a single user not making a mistake about it.  Archiving requires the judgement of a single editor, and if it was a mistake, any editor can fix the mistake. Deletion requires a good reason to delete, and an example of a good reason is not “I think the pages containing the various scripts should be deleted”.  —SmokeyJoe (talk) 08:44, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment: My thought was not to delete the Google Custom Search page, just the various (broken) scripts and styling, but we could delete that as well. Aasim (talk) 14:54, 5 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep - Marking it historical is sufficient. -- Whpq (talk) 18:28, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Retain in some manner per those above. — Godsy (TALK CONT ) 15:22, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
