 * keep this is part of a series of templates. I have converted this to use timeline format instead of the GIF image. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 04:51, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * comment, why do we need a timeline template for this anyway? it would seem better to just use a regular table from the standpoint of wp:accessibility.  my screen reader cannot parse this. Frietjes (talk) 16:03, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The timeline extension was implemented for this kind of thing, so are you asking why Wikipedia installed Extension EasyTimeline? Non-Wikipedia sources frequently have visual timelines, so it is an accepted use of this kind of thing in the world at large. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 05:02, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
 * if you view source on the timeline you get the following
 * all the date information is lost. compare that with


 * I would say that the timeline version fails. Frietjes (talk) 14:45, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
 * A graphical timeline gives you a grasp of the relative lengths of terms in office, that peopele with dyscalculia or dyslexia can interpret more easily. And as it stands, your statement seems to be equally appropriate for all timelines on Wikipedia, not just this one. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 04:19, 2 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete for several reasons. The most important being that timelines are not appropriate for this little amount of information. In this case, it's unexpected and confusing. Thus the argument about it being favorable for people with dyscalculia fails. Timeline, in its current shape, has limited capabilities, is not accessible to blind users, search engines cannot use it, and it's hard to edit even for active users. Timelines will have to be changed for something new sooner or later anyway. That's plenty of reasons to not use it when we can avoid it. A table will do a better job in this case. Dodoïste (talk) 20:38, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
 * People complain about templates that use parserfunctions and subtemplates being dense and unable to be read by even experienced Wikipedians, so I don't see why timelines are bad if complex templates are ok. And how is it unexpected and confusing? And since when is Wikipedia restricted to what Google allows? The search engine argument equally applies to the use of many types of templates. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 07:02, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I have never said that complex templates are OK, they certainly are not. I simplified several complex templates at the french Wikipedia, in order to make them readable. But we can't do without several complex templates, at least for now. However, we can do without unnecessary use of Timelines. Dodoïste (talk) 00:38, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment for those who oppose using the EasyTimeline extention, I hope you start an RFC on the matter for its removal. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 07:02, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
 * As I explained, we are not against every use of Timeline. Some uses are good, and should be kept until we find a better way to make charts. Please be more constructive. Yours, Dodoïste (talk) 00:38, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

Only two or three entries. This can be recreated if there are several, but what's the purpose of having this now when a see also section will suffice? —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 22:21, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Oppose. Created by  a user who  knows Wikipedia policy backwards. They are hardly  toxic and it's not as if they are taking up space on the server. Are there no  better ideas around these days for wasting  people's time? Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:00, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Response DOESNTHURT is an invalid argument for keeping. We could have an infinite number of things which cause no harm--that doesn't mean we should, nor does it mean that we should have any one of them. The purpose of these boxes is to navigate and if you're navigating one to three articles, that's not useful enough to justify its existence and is redundant to the function of a see also section. I fail to see whose time is wasted here and it seems like you have more of an interest in being rude to me than genuinely discussing the utility of these templates. —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 01:14, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I looked at the creators of the first ten or so on the list, and already I can count many more editors who favor these (which I infer from the fact that they created them) than the one editor who has so far voted in favor of deletion. Also, I do agree that it would have been far more appropriate to discuss it at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Opera, and the nominator should have chosen this approach. --Robert.Allen (talk) 02:11, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose These templates have been a long-standing practice at WikiProject Opera, whose members developed them, with several discussions on format etc. over many years. They serve 3 purposes:
 * [1] They provide quick and easy navigation to other operas by the same composer without having to go all the way down to "See also" and look for them. This is of benefit to both readers and to editors working in the area.
 * [2] The reader can see at a glance the chronological order and date of premiere for the composer's other operas and where the current opera they're reading about fits in.
 * [3] Virtually all of these composers have written more than three operas, even if they don't yet have articles. Once the articles are created, the template can be updated. When transcluded in the new article, the template will automatically add the composer's image, italicise the title, and add links to the composer's other operas with their premiere dates.
 * On a procedural note, we're talking about a mass deletion in this section of 40+ longstanding templates which are transcluded in 100+ articles. Given the huge amount of work entailed in repairing the articles if these templates were to be deleted (re-adding images, italicising the titles, and adding "See also" sections), it would have been courteous of the nominator to at least notify WikiProject Opera of what he was planning to do and possibly getting some input as to the rationale for them.

 * Note: This discussion has been notified to WikiProject Opera. - Voceditenore (talk) 08:15, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose per all the above. Standard practice with operas. Many of these templates also have the possibility of expansion. --Folantin (talk) 09:44, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose – templates with high functional and navigational value and expansion possibility. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:10, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep per above. These are very useful.  Them From  Space  18:57, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Why can't there just be a Template:Operas or something like that? And they only have a few links - this is kinda unnecessary. Cyan  Gardevoir  (used EDIT!) 04:24, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by a "Template:Operas or something like that"? We have 2000 articles on specific operas. These templates are specific to the operas by each composer. You may wish to read my comment above which gives a detailed rationale for them. Voceditenore (talk) 06:05, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Suggestion Probably something like Infobox album for operas, to provide navigation. This is actually a very good point, as there is no need at all to create individual sidebars--why are there individual ones anyway? —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:49, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Reply A more apt comparison would be Infobox play. In any case, infoboxes about a particular work and navboxes pertaining to a particular composer serve entirely different purposes. As I pointed out above, the navboxes you have nominated for mass deletion are used to add the composer's picture, italicize the article title, list the composer's other operas in chronological order with premiere dates, and provide quick, easy, uniform navigation to them both for readers and for editors working in that area. Whenever a new opera article is created for a composer, it only has to be added once to the template and automatically appears in all the other opera articles by that composer. Otherwise, all those tasks have to be done by hand. Virtually all the composers nominated above have written well over three operas. This is why WikiProject Opera developed these six years ago. If you don't ever edit in this area, you may not see the value of them, but editors who do contribute in this area and have done so extensively over many years find them very useful and informative.


 * I personally find it very disappointing that a mass-deletion nomination like this should be made without any prior attempt to discuss it with the WikiProject that works very hard to maintain and develop articles in this area and without any regard to the hours and hours of work it will take us to repair the damage and restore the missing information, title formatting, and images to 132 articles should these templates be deleted. A mass deletion, particularly of all the three opera navboxes was entirely inappropriate in my view. We're all here to improve this encyclopedia. Can you explain how deleting these navboxes improves it, and more specifically how their mass-deletion improves the coverage of opera on Wikipedia? Voceditenore (talk) 07:03, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete these single entry ones (but keep the multiple entry ones nominated in the previous section). These single-entry navboxes currently serve no purpose and only 4 of them have composer images, which can easily be re-added to those 4 articles. However, these single-entry templates may prove useful if future opera articles are created for any of these composers, especially since they contain commented out lists of their other operas without articles yet. To that end, I've preserved the code for these on a sub-page of WikiProject Opera. – Voceditenore (talk) 10:47, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

Useless. About a director who doesn't have an article and 6 of 7 films that don't have articles. The one film that does have an article was created by the author of the template and will probably be deleted per WP:NFF. Bbb23 (talk) 01:49, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep I voted to delete Mission: Blacklist (film) at its AfD because it violates WP:NFF. However, the director, Jean-Stephane Sauvaire, meets Wikipedia's creative notability guidelines which state: The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews. I was able to find a number of independent sources reviewing Sauvaire.  Because Jean-Stephane Sauvaire is notable, and has had other fim besides Mission: Blacklist, Template:Jean-Stephane Sauvaire should be kept. NJ Wine (talk) 02:56, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator. I'll change to keep if articles are created for the director and the released films, they all seem notable. Smetanahue (talk) 06:45, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Navboxes exist solely to navigate existing content. They are not skeletons to hold potential articles. Keeping a navbox for a director who doesn't even have his own article is ludicrous. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 09:30, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
