Templates used for featured content
Most of this page's templates are deprecated in favor ArticleHistory, which includes all those options, and the remaining rest doesn't require an own template message page. Template messages/Talk namespace and Template messages/File namespace contain those templates that aren't yet deprecated, and ArticleHistory's doc also gives a good explanatation of how to tag such talk pages. No links from project pages, so deletion shouldn't be problematic. The Evil IP address (talk) 12:56, 30 April 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Archive as part of the history. Think of people poring over Wikipedia's page histories in the future, trying to reconstruct how things were done here, and finding lots of redlinks.... By all means tidy up and label to avoid confusing current users of the encyclopedia, but don't just delete old projectspace pages when they are no longer needed, as they are part of the history (some being a more useful archival record than others, of course). If anyone has pangs of doubt about pages that may have been deleted in the past that could form part of the archival record, simply ask for them to be undeleted and marked as an archive.

 * Like this, it's pointless, it's only a list of redlinks. If really necessary, we can include the former template names in "ArticleHistory"'s documentation. --The Evil IP address (talk) 11:55, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
