Template:Recent book

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the debate was deletion. RyanGerbil10 (Говорить!) 00:12, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

This was created almost immediately after the deletion of Current fiction. As the closing admin stated in Templates_for_deletion/Log/2007_December_15, "Articles about new things need help. This is not a new concept. A box with one of those bright stripes doesn't need to tell us that." An argument was made in the deletion debate that Current fiction was like Recent death, but it was not a compelling argument as information does not change rapidly for fictional works as they're static and don't change rapidly. Chaz Beckett 18:57, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I'd be inclined to delete simply because it differs in form dramatically from Current game and seems to have a different purpose. It doesn't really match anything in our current events templates, and really, all Wikipedia articles are subject to change. Once a book is released, the information tends to harden, they've usually already been reviewed and there isn't so much information flying about. Hiding T 18:59, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I created this template and I don't see how the deletion of current fiction applies here. Not all books are fiction. And corpses don't change rapidly either, speaking of the recent death template. This template is perfectly in line with other temporal templates. This template is meant to be a counterpart to future book. Once a book has been released, future book can be removed from an article and replaced with recent book. I would say that articles about recently released books change much more rapidly after the book has been released, rather than before the book has been released. --Pixelface (talk) 22:39, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Same rationale as Recent film. AniMate 23:25, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is exactly the kind of temporal template that is needed. Take, for example, the release of Harry Potter 7. After the book was released, the article was undergoing large additions and changes for quite a few days. This would be good for such situations. This is completely different than Template:Current fiction, which wasn't good at doing anything. --- RockMFR 05:39, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The HP issue was a rarity and could easily be dealt with through the use of the already existing underconstruction template. Collectonian (talk) 22:04, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * That is true... --- RockMFR 05:52, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, wholly unnecessary and inappropriate attempt to get around the deletion of the current fiction template (and probably to get around the spoiler issue, yet again). There is absolutely no reason at all to tag a book as "recently" released, and "recent" is far too arbitrary (whose date do we go by, the "official release date," the date the first store actually gives out a copy, what about the many books with out set release dates just release months? Collectonian (talk) 22:04, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * It is not an attempt to "get around the spoiler issue." And it's not an attempt to "get around" the deletion of the current fiction template. The current fiction template was proposed on WT:SPOILER but this template has nothing to do with spoilers or spoiler warnings. Do you know when to remove the future book tag? That's when you add the recent book tag. --Pixelface (talk) 00:43, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Effectively this is a recreation, or at least a circumvention of deletion, or a previously deleted template. --Tony Sidaway 15:23, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete I'm going to be honest here. The spoiler debate is over.  Spoiler alerts are not welcome on Wikipedia.  This template is attempt to bring back current fiction, which was an attempt to replace spoiler. --Phirazo 20:16, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
 * This template has nothing to do with spoiler alerts whatsoever. And not all books are fiction. --Pixelface (talk) 20:40, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

 * What does this template have to do with the current fiction template? --Pixelface (talk) 02:15, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The message is virtually the same. They both declare something to be new. Readers can figure out that a book is new from the lead.  If an article is need of clean-up, there are plenty of clean-up templates with a more specific message than "this is new".  The example you cite, recent death is more like current, that is to say, it is news, and the article may be unstable while the current event occurs.  Information about recently released books doesn't change the way news of future books or news about recent deaths do, so I see little point to this template other than "OMG SPOILERS".  If there is a problem with many editors editing an article on a recent book in a short period of time, then current can be used.  --Phirazo 21:55, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The message is virtually the same? How so? They both declare something to be new? That's not why current fiction was deleted. And the current product template has existed since September. Temporal templates are not necessarily for cleanup. A death is not a current event. It happens once, and then it's over. Articles about recently released books do change alot after the book is released. Again, this template has nothing to do with spoilers. Most book releases are not considered "events", so I don't see how the current tag would apply. --Pixelface (talk) 05:59, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Jim Dunning | talk  13:49, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Unable to determine its purpose since its message keeps changing (three distinct versions in the past day). If the message is simply declaring it's a recent book (as it does at this moment), then I see no purpose for it; I can look at its publishing history to see how recent it is (if the article lacks that information, then add it instead of this tag). Template tags like this must have a useful purpose, and that purpose is usually clear from the message it creates on the page. For some reason, this template's message (as well as those of its sisters) is deemed secondary or fungible or unnecessary by its creator. Therefore, I cannot discern its intent and must vote to Delete.
 * Delete. I can't think of a useful reason to tag an article with this template. The book is finished, so no changes will take place (normally!). Critical reaction will be ongoing for eternity. The tag is not requesting assistance from editors, nor is it alerting readers to potential problems. SilkTork  *SilkyTalk 13:57, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. I think this template is useful, but should say more than it does, mentioning more specific problems with the article as the old 'currentfiction' template did. I don't think this was intended as a spoiler template, but some people seem to think it is one, so if kept it should be reworded to clarify its actual purpose: alerting readers that an article may not be up to our highest standards of quality, due to inevitable problems with recentism. That's a real issue, and this is a helpful template. Terraxos (talk) 04:07, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Per other editors' rationales and the fact that its useless.-- Oni Ookami Alfador Talk 05:11, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per all arguments at the Current fiction TfD. This is virtually a G4 speedy candidate, and just more disruption from User:Pixelface, who continues to demonstrate that he has no interest in creating an encyclopedia and endless interest in "beating the dust which has blown over the bloody smear where the dead horse once lay", to quote a recent AN/I thread. --Stormie (talk) 08:57, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment However murky Pixelface's history might be (and I know nothing of it, so I'll take your word for it), that's no reason not to AGF here. Happy‑melon 21:50, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
 * How is this template a recreation of previously deleted material? Please explain how. Otherwise, your comments about beating a dead horse are totally inappropriate, David. --Pixelface (talk) 05:48, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, having nothing to do with the spoiler or currentfiction arguments, but simply because it is completely useless and provides no added value to either readers or editors of the encyclopedia. Maintenance tags are not intended to enlighten readers - and it does not do that, since the release date should be presented within the article.  They are intended for editors, to provide useful information and/or areas to concentrate improvement efforts.  This template does nothing in that regard.  Happy‑melon 21:50, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per other users rationals, especially per Hiding. -- Magioladitis (talk) 20:36, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per reasons stated here, recent film and current fiction. Simply stating that the book is recent is not helpful, but requesting specific improvements is. There are already cleanup templates that offer better advice and link to appropriate guidelines. ●BillPP (talk 17:25, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Well what improvements do you think aricles on recently released books need? --Pixelface (talk) 23:09, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * It would depend on what improvements the article needed. Possibly plot or refimprove, but it really depends on what action is needed to improve the article. Tagging the article just to say that it is recently released doesn't really do anything except repeat what is presumably in the lead paragraph (release date). ●BillPP (talk 23:53, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete Seems unnecessary and arbitrary. When does a film stop being recent? A day? A week? Are we then going to then have template Not so recent film? Older film? Classic film? AniMate 23:24, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * When does a death stop being recent? A day? A week? Do we have not so recent death? The template can be removed from an article after a certain time period has passed. That time period can be determined by discussion and consensus on Template talk:Recent film. --Pixelface (talk) 00:37, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, wholly unnecessary and inappropriate attempt to get around the deletion of the current fiction template (and probably to get around the spoiler issue, yet again). Future covers films not yet released, after that, they do not need to be tagged as "recently" released, and "recent" is far too abitrary. Collectonian (talk) 22:00, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * How is this template an attempt to get around the spoiler issue? You say "recent" is far too arbitrary. Do you know when to remove the future film tag? Then you know when to apply this tag. --Pixelface (talk) 21:29, 26 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment: I am leaning toward endorsing deletion of this template, but I'd like to pose a question. I've kept an eye on quite a few articles of recent films in the past year, and I've rarely noticed hefty editing on the large majority of them.  They've usually been gnomish edits, either copy-editing or fine-tuning details to the Plot section.  The film articles pale in absolute comparison to articles covering recent events or recent deaths, so I'm asking, how does this template serve to inform the reader in any way?  A thought of mine is to wiki-link to WP:MOSFILM and encourage readers to get involved, but there is still an issue of when a film is recent.  For example, The Killing of John Lennon is no longer a "future film", but it does not have a large presence.  If it gets a wide release in the United States, would the template really apply there?  From where we're standing, we can perceive points in the timeline where a film gets more awareness (such as a foreign film being introduced in an English-language territory, controversies, awards, or DVD releases), but from what I've seen, the traffic is rarely quantifiable based on the meager edits to articles on films.  The objective threshold that's been used is the first non-festival release, so my issue is whether the template would really help even if it only exists in the first x weeks of a film's release, where it may find higher traffic afterward for a reason like the ones I previously listed. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 22:32, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment If this template is deleted, I ask that Category:Recent films (which this template puts articles into) not be deleted along with it &mdash; although I suppose that's a matter for CFD. --Pixelface (talk) 01:42, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

 * This template has nothing to do with spoiler alerts. --Pixelface (talk) 02:14, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Readers can figure out that Ike Turner died from the lead too. And they can also figure out that Cloverfield hasn't been released yet. Articles about recently released films do change quite a bit &mdash; and many of those articles do need attention. The template has nothing to do with spoilers or spoiler warnings. The template has never been about "OMG SPOILERS" and I have no idea why you would think that. Films are not current events, so no, current cannot be used. A film premiere may be a sort of "event", but the information about the premiere is often not what changes, the entire article changes, usually significantly. This is a temporal template. Most temporal templates lack any clean-up messages and just indicate that an article may change rapidly. I would say that articles about recently released films change much more after the film's release than before the film's release. I see no reason why the future film template should exist, but not the recent film template. --Pixelface (talk) 04:49, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete per my concerns about the lack of ease in implementing such a template consistently, reflected in my comment a few bullet points above. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 06:24, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

 * The film may be the finished but the article isn't. Articles about recently released films often change very quickly and some need updating and improvement. The tag did encourage people to expand the article, but some editors didn't like that wording so I changed it. This template puts articles into a category. An editor may work on one article and then see other articles in the category and work on those too. You said yourself that critical reaction will be ongoing. Film articles continue to change after the film has been released for a while, but I think the most changes come in the first few weeks after the film's release. --Pixelface (talk) 04:59, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

This is consists of content which is mostly unrelated to Hillary Clinton. Even if it is not deleted, I still think that much of its content should be removed (like links to associations which she is a member of).

 * By "considered for deletion", I presume you mean informally, because I find no formal deletion process anywhere? If anything, Edwards' template might be more deletable than any of the others, with only 4 bluelinks and 3 redlinks. I trust you will demonstrate your stated intent consistently across all templates.

Upon further thought, and looking at Category:Politician navigational templates, I'd restrict such templates to actual heads of state (in the U.S., presidents), and not use them for senators, governors, members of parliament, etc., or for candidates to higher office.  Wasted Time R (talk) 18:30, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment/Reply (to Wasted Time R) If you believe in restricting personal templates to actual heads of state like presidents, and not using templates for candidates for national offices or senators and governors, please also say so here if you don't mind.

 * Keep - useful as a navigation template, and serves a similar purpose to . Most of the articles included are particularly related to her, so it makes sense to link them together based on that. Terraxos (talk) 04:37, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. As stated at the Ron Paul template deletion debate, (1) it is proper for templates to have indirect content as well as direct content. (2) If there is debate about what indirect content to include, that is not a deletion argument, but a fix-it argument. (3) If there is some reason to limit politician templates to heads of state, that is not a TFD argument, but should be discussed at the talk at Category:Politician navigational templates instead of, what, four separate remote TFD debates? Then we can delete all at once if WP:OTHERSTUFF consistency should be validated by consensus. (4) Most important, how could I find all the WP content on Clinton or Paul or the others without a template?!? Should I rely on the hierarchical maze? The template easily and swiftly uncovers several articles for additional information which I would not find easily or at all by an intense scan of the overlong article. John J.

 * Keep and unsubstitute. These templates were first proposed for deletion in July. The reason for no consensus was that the same tables were used across two articles. They still are, it's just that someone had substituted them. It's certainly possible that the format for these tables will change, considering the two types of formats in Home Run Derby. It's easier to edit one template than it is to know to make the same changes to two articles. The templates also make sure there are no discrepancies across articles. This time, I'll make sure they get unsubstituted. Note: I've merged the 7 nominations here to avoid copy and pasting across discussions as the same result should apply to all of them; for the same reason the templates should stay. –Pomte 01:14, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all. Two articles are not very difficult to change.  It is basically still a single use template. Resolute 04:35, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * "Not very difficult" still allows it to be more difficult to some degree, and every bit helps if someone's trying to maintain and check for consistency across 8+ articles. What does basically single use mean? They're clearly not single use. –Pomte 11:34, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
