Entirely redlinks. Since the results of this event haven't survived the test of time, it's unlikely that these pages will ever be created.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 19:20, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Ethnic, linguistic and cultural minorities in the European Union

practically each country has its own template for navigation between its minorities. Adding this secondary template is cumbersome
 * Delete per nom, too large to be viable as a single navbox. Navigational templates should be created for individual countries where necessary.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 22:40, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Mosques in Guatemala

Only one article in navbox. Not necessary. Thegreatelgrande (talk) 14:15, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete this template and Mosques in Argentina and Mosques in Venezuela. Move the three mosque articles to a new Mosques in Latin America together with the related links from the bottom rows, excluding the categories. Green Giant (talk) 19:31, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

 * YouTube most subbed

Redundant template. It is merely a navbox version of the List of the most subscribed channels on YouTube article (and to make things really circular, the list article is wl'ed in the title of the template), and in fact had duplicate entries when a channel retook the #1 position (since removed). The only connection/relation between the channels is simply that they are #1 per some metric; they aren't even necessarily in competition with one another. An SA link to the list article in the various subject articles would fulfill the same purpose as this template does. MSJapan (talk) 05:36, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. Is this really any different than a list of office holders? 117Avenue (talk) 06:53, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Reply - Yes, as List_of_Presidents_of_the_United_States, for example, does not have an associated nav template, and this is not a succession box (which incidentally, does appear on the individual article pages. MSJapan (talk) 15:53, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes it does, US Presidents. 117Avenue (talk) 22:48, 2 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep: Useful navigational template. Whether an entity is the most subscribed video provider on YouTube gets press coverage and is of reader interest.--Milowent • hasspoken  09:21, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Reply - "Reader interest" and "press coverage" establish notability, which is a guideline for articles, not templates. If these items were non-notable, we wouldn't even have to have this discussion because the articles being navved through wouldn't be here in the first place.  The issue is redundancy - we have a list article that performs the same function as this nav template, and there is also a succession box format in the individual articles which also performs part of this same function.  At some point we are simply re-presenting the same information excessively. MSJapan (talk) 15:53, 1 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep, like any other title important enough for a list article, the title can have a navbox. Delete the succession boxes, I didn't even know they were there until MSJapan pointed it out, they're not on the pages I watch. 117Avenue (talk) 22:48, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge, combine it with the existing "YouTube navigation" template. We don't need two. --Jeff Ogden (W163) (talk) 23:24, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
