 * Category header ship century/decades

Delete. I have removed it from Cathead ship decade and it is redundant to Category diffuse. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 22:14, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

 * EastAsianText

Horribly broad template. From what I can tell, this template has been largely unused until it was added to the article TVXQ just recently. Seems to be the only one of its kind, can be replaced by individuals templates, including Contains Japanese text, Contains Korean text, Contains Thai text, etc. — ξ xplicit  22:11, 24 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep - Users finds it useful. Earth Wikipedian (talk) 00:31, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Overly broad and redundant to more specific templates. — This, that, and the other (talk) 01:54, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I hate to just contradict a fellow editor but "Users finds it useful." is just not true. One user found it useful once.  Be done with it & use the more specific ones mentioned by This, that and the other. J IM ptalk·cont 04:09, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I could see a valid use case for this, but if it's unused then we're evidently getting by fine without it. Should it be kept it should be reimplemented as a proper special characters subclass. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) - talk 10:13, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

 * NAIA football conference navbox

This template is really just a subset of Template:NAIA conference navbox. I don't think we need this on its own. Jweiss11 (talk) 19:30, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

As a graduate of an NAIA institute, I agree with you Jweiss11 DMC511 (talk) 15:11, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Andorra-university-stub

Universitat d'Andorra is the only article that used the template, and since its use there was easily replaced with and, it is no longer needed. As noted in the March 2006 Times Higher Education ref I just cited in Universitat d'Andorra, "That a country as small as Andorra has its own university may come as a surprise"; Andorra's population is less than 90,000, so the future usefulness of is questionable. 68.165.77.223 (talk) 04:42, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. But this should have been listed at WP:SFD. — This, that, and the other (talk) 08:43, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep This should be at WP:SFD. SeveroTC 11:41, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment WP:Stub types for deletion says WP:SFD "reduces the need for repeating identical arguments on several different Wikipedia deletion pages", but in this case, since the template is not accompanied by its own category, only the template is affected. I don't think it matters that it is listed here. 68.165.77.92 (talk) 07:17, 1 October 2011 (UTC)
