 * Cleanup-spam
 * Advert

Propose merging Template:Cleanup-spam with Template:Advert.

Although some have argued that advert is designed to deal with content that is written with the "tone" of an advertisement, this template argues that it contains "promotional material and other spam", such as inappropriate external links.

However, if it is written like promotional material, it is promotional material. Aside from the slightly different wording, these two templates essentially have the same purpose. I suggest that these two templates be merged with the wording: "'This article is written like an advertisement. Please help improve the article by removing promotional language and inappropriate external links, and adding encyclopedic content written from a neutral point of view.'" This covers all the potential scenarios for these two templates together. If it is just links that are the problem, External links covers it.

 * Merge. While the two templates say different things, they're close enough in functionality that we can easily write something that would cover both scenarios; your wording works, and it wouldn't be hard to replace it if someone objected.  Redirect one template to the other, add the new text to the target template, and we're done.  Nyttend (talk) 21:56, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom and Nyttend —PC-XT+ 00:02, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Coming here from an article (GNU Octave) where this was added although the EL tag would have been more appropriate, this merger seems like a good solution. I would caution against automatically re-tagging the articles after this merge is done because this template appears to have been a union of the other two (Advert and EL), so the problem in each article where this template appears cannot be discerned (and the right [sub]tag cannot be chosen) automatically by a program... 86.121.137.150 (talk) 23:34, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Infobox academic division ( 77 6 16 transclusions)$1$
 * Infobox university (19,369 transclusions)

Propose merging Template:Infobox academic division with Template:Infobox university.

A previous TfD to replace Academic Division after replacing instances with the more generic template closed as "no consensus", because some people preferred to insist on a formal merge proposal rather than discuss the merits of the template in question.

It is redundant to the generic template (which already serves for faculties, schools, colleges, and other types of parts of universities, which currently use the AD template).

The parameters unique to the AD template are canton, prefecture, region (the documentation of the University template says province is for "all other administrative subdivisions"), alumni, and symbol (the latter pair are not specific to academic divisions, and may apply to any University or sub-set of one).

Here is an. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:21, 8 December 2014 (UTC)


 * $1$I have replaced the transclusions of the AD template which do not use the parameters listed above. Further investigation shows that symbol is unused. alumni is used in the remaining six transclusions, but its meaning is not clear (one is footnoted "The number of living alumni as of the year 2012"; others not, and most are uncited). Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:52, 8 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Please use sidebar with when nominating infoboxes in the future. 31.153.43.216 (talk) 17:01, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Keeping it in Infobox academic division gives a better semantic meaning. –  nafSadh did say 02:21, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge. Although semantically these infoboxes would appear to have different functions, the nomination shows that they have essentially the same parameters and can thus be merged painlessly. Infobox academic division should be maintained as a redirect to Infobox university. — This, that and the other (talk) 03:45, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge per my !vote in the previous discussion (keeping this as a redirect) —PC-XT+ 04:05, 10 December 2014 (UTC) 04:09, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge per TTO, the name difference is no reason for keeping a template that shares many parameters with university and is substantially a recent fork of the earlier template.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 00:39, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge per Andy. This is similar to Infobox politician.  Would make things less confusing. Bgwhite (talk) 07:57, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I created this specifically for its semantic value, but the intention was to eventually extend the template with other details specific to such divisions (which I've yet to consider or enumerate, unfortunately). My intention was to merge university and college infoboxes to infobox university (as has already been done with some infoboxes), and also to merge infoboxes for all academic divisions (medical and law schools, faculties, departments, etc.) to Infobox academic division, which I began with the creation of these template redirects. Mind  matrix  17:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * There were more "parts of university" using infobox university than the nominated template, even before its nomination. The semantic value can be derived from the presence and contents of parent. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:28, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment: Why did you replace all uses of this template before resolution of this discussion? The point of such discussions is to come to a consensus, then act on that consensus, not to preemptively act on a proposal then have to undo such changes if consensus doesn't agree with that proposal. Mind  matrix  17:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Nobody did. However, since the template is demonstrably redundant, many instances were replaced with a more suitable, generic template. The existence of a TfD does not preclude this. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:28, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Aside: infoboxes in general could benefit from separating location-related info into a separate template or module to deal with naming of subnational jurisdictions (that is, whether to use state, province, canton, prefecture, etc.) and their display in the infobox. Mind  matrix  17:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose merger I have to agree with our colleagues who believe that usability trumps minor technical issues or unnecessary consistency. I understand how the templates overlap but it seems like it's much more important to ensure they remain useable by editors than to combine them simply because they can be combined. ElKevbo (talk) 23:39, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * In what way do you believe that the more generic template less usable? Indeed, the reverse is true; the nominated template's only unique field in use has such poor usability that no-one seems to know what it is for. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:01, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose Not enough valid arguments showing reason to merge. --NotWillyWonka (talk) 00:40, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * The valid argument is that the template is redundant to another; this has been demonstrated unequivocally. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:01, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose merge per ElKevbo's rationale above. This is more template merging for the sake of template merging.  Sometimes a specifically tailored template is superior to a generic one-size-fits-all model.  The nominator might receive less opposition and save himself a great of time and aggravation if he would simply run such proposals by the relevant WikiProjects before dropping them here at TfD -- he might even receive some helpful advice as to what could be easily and appropriately merged from the viewpoint of editors who use the templates on a regular basis.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:17, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Dirtlawyer1's comments make no points in favour of keeping two templates; why a template currently used in only six articles is supposedly needed, nor why the more generic one is "superior" to the one which works in over nineteen thousand other cases. His procedural comments seem to be overspill from . Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:18, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Hey, Andy: guess again. I'm a long-time member of WikiProject Universities.  Please stop trying to discredit other editors who oppose your proposed deletions and merges.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 03:03, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Your membership of that project does not refute my point. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:23, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
 * And what is your "point," Andy? I found this TfD discussion because I keep Infobox university on my watch list to prevent tampering by vandals and ill-advised changes by inexperienced editors.  You have a well-established pattern/bias of always wanting to consolidate/merge templates into larger, multi-purpose, one-size-fits-all master templates, sometimes without understanding the purposes and uses of those templates; pointing that out is fair game.  I happen to believe that in many instances, smaller, more specialized templates that are tailored to their specific uses are often easier to use and don't create problems of inexperienced editors using inappropriate template options.  You clearly have a different opinion, but my opinion is no less valid than yours, and your compulsive need to answer every !vote and opinion opposed to your merge proposals does not advance your TfD proposals more often than not.  More is sometimes less, a lesson you would do well to absorb in these discussions.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 20:57, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
 * It's only used on six articles because you replaced all other uses of this template before resolution of this discussion, as I noted in a comment above. This is one of the primary reasons I objected to replacement before resolution, because it could then be used to skew the discussion by stating how few articles use it. Mind  matrix  22:24, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * On the contrary, such replacement is evidence to the assertion that the template is redundant. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:23, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose Unhelpful, get the ugly spam off of pages  Royal Mate1  12:54, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * You appear to be commenting on the TfD notification, not the proposal to merge and do away with the redundant template. Do you have a view on that?  Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:51, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I see. Yes, I oppose the merger, it seems to be independent enough to not warrant a redundancy in terms of templates.  Royal Mate1  03:56, 30 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Strong oppose Wish I'd known about the academic division infobox earlier, it would be very useful on some of the articles I edit. I've found infoboxes that attempt to be "jack of all trades" to be overstuffed with criteria and virtually unusable. Universities and university divisions are different animals with markedly different identifying information; keeping the templates separate allows for this and is conducive to editing. I agree with others above that this seems to be template merging for its own sake. --TorriTorri(talk/contribs) 21:17, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * How is Infobox university not useful for your purpose? What parameters for "markedly different identifying information" are needed? Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:19, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose This merger does not seem reasonable simply because academic divisions are different from universities, and while currently the infoboxes are similar, a better solution would be to flesh out the academic divisions infobox so that it could be used on pertinent articles to provides more specificity. VivaLaPandaz (talk) 23:19, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
 * "academic divisions are different from universities" As noted above, There were more "parts of university" using infobox university than the nominated template, even before its nomination. Infobox university already serves the function of showing data for universities and parts of universities. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:40, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose This template is distinctly needed, a merge would suffice although there could then be problems with Good Faith Editors filling all fields for new institutions/universities and making a mess of existing/new articles, the converse could also occur but it just seems to make more sense to me to keep them separate to avoid confusion. C h r i s ☮ (Talk) 23:19, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge, unnecessarily duplicative and as noted above, does not do anything that doesn't already do. -- Visviva (talk) 01:51, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose University pages almost all contain this infobox. This page should have an infobox because that is Wikipedia's format. Furthermore, I do not see any gain in removing this box - it would just make the page look less like it was for a university. Please provide examples of reputable universities with no info boxes to support your argument to remove the box.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 23.16.56.99 (talk) 09:49, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 * You misunderstand the proposal, which is to merge two similar infoboxes. no article would lose it infobox as a result Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:59, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose. University is an institution with which "divisions" are affiliated, not the other way around (for example, Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences is operated by the Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences at Harvard University).

 * Comment I don't know what this deletion request is about, but I don't think it's a good idea for "this template is being considered for deletion" at the top of infoboxes which would lead to casual readers thinking there was an error on the website. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  21:04, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Arbitration ban enforcement should be requested at WP:AE. Normally I'd just copy your request over there; however, a previous request for arbitration enforcement was made on similar grounds but rejected.  Also, Andy's routinely engaged in this kind of request since the ban was imposed, and as far as I can tell, nobody's raised a stink about it in the past; it would be absurd to sanction him for a ban violation now if he's openly been doing the same thing for a year and a half.  For these reasons, I don't believe that it would help to file a normal request for arbitration enforcement.  Nyttend (talk) 21:37, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Milwaukie neighborhoods

Navbox listing neighborhoods of a small city with no hope of being notable enough for articles. The one neighborhood with any chance of notability, Lewelling, Milwaukie, Oregon was deleted via PROD today. I've rescued dozens of articles about small towns and neighborhoods, so am not a deltionist on these topics, but I have no hope for expansion of these. All can be written about in the primary topic, Milwaukie, Oregon, therefore no navbox is needed. Valfontis (talk) 00:50, 8 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete, the neighborhoods of this small suburban city are highly unlikely to be notable enough for any such articles to exist, at least for the next few decades.

 * Delete per nom. I was hesitant to vote this way, since National Register of Historic Places historic districts often embrace neighborhoods (they're always notable, since the National Register requires much more documentation than is required by WP:N), but National Register of Historic Places listings in Clackamas County, Oregon doesn't show any historic districts in Milwaukie.
