 * User wikipedia/Non-Administrator

Misleading at a glance, no purpose but to trick new users, looks too much like the real administrator banner.  D r e a m Focus  18:15, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Aren't userboxes supposed to go to MFD?— Ryulong ( 琉竜 ) 19:48, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment there's the big red slash on it, it looks rather distinct if you don't need a screenreader. -- 65.92.180.137 (talk) 06:16, 22 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Against - This template is fine. It does not need to be changed and should not be deleted. This discussion should be referenced if this userbox is ever nominated for deletion at the correct venue, Miscellany for deletion. -   &#x0288;  u coxn \ talk 21:56, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Procedural, because userboxes go to MFD.  Practical, because just almost everyone can see the big red slash, and those who can't will be using screenreaders that can't look at images, so all that they'll get from this infobox is a statement of "This user is not an administrator".

 * Friendly association football tournaments in Denmark
 * Football in Denmark

Propose merging Template:Friendly association football tournaments in Denmark with Template:Football in Denmark.

Similar to Templates for discussion. Royal League is not a friendly tournament, and I wouldn't call Nordic Football Championship that either. This templates doesn't provide navigation between related topics, and should be merged with Template:Football in Denmark. Mentoz86 (talk) 14:11, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete I don't see the point of merging this with Football in Denmark. This template has two red links, both of which I have never heard of, and three other tournaments which I wouldn't call friendly tournaments of which two are not only held in Denmark but in other country as well. Finally I don't think the Football in Denmark template should contain links to friendly tournaments.--Reckless182 (talk) 11:47, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Japanese Canadians
 * Canadian Japanese

These templates, apparently created after removing the content from Template:Japanese-Canadian relations, seem to duplicate the categories Category:Canadian people of Japanese descent and Category:Japanese people of Canadian descent for no reason I can discern. As far as I am aware, there are no other templates that provide a means to navigate amongst people of similar ethnic and nationalistic backgrounds, so I see no use for these templates.— Ryulong ( 琉竜 ) 07:04, 18 March 2013 (UTC) — Ryulong  ( 琉竜 ) 07:04, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * delete on the condition they are not merged with Template:Japanese-Canadian relations. Frietjes (talk) 15:01, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

 * [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Japanese-Canadian_relations&oldid=455471767 indeed], appears to be the decision of a [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ken_Adachi&diff=455330595&oldid=450895257 single editor]. Frietjes (talk) 16:04, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect since we have the relations template, a redirect will also do fine. -- 65.92.180.137 (talk) 00:22, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
 * There is no need to merge these. These are navigation templates on any one person in Canada with Japanese ancestry or any one person in Japan with Canadian ancestry. These have zero usage as the people in the templates are arbitrarily chosen. There are no other navboxes that have lists of people of certain nationalities in other nations.— Ryulong ( 琉竜 ) 01:32, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
