 * Bexleyheath Line (modern route)

unused. Frietjes (talk) 22:33, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - is sufficient to depict this line and, in any event, the route does not strictly extend beyond Lewisham as shown here. Lamberhurst (talk) 11:02, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

 * 2015 Africa Cup of Nations finalists

just not needed. Koppapa (talk) 15:18, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - After a review of this template, its history, and its primary linked article, I can now see why it is "just not needed." The navbox was formerly used in the parent article, 2015 Africa Cup of Nations, where all of the team articles linked in the navbox are already prominently linked in the main body text.  Furthermore, it is not a "2015" navbox; all of the included links are to the main articles for the national football teams of the African countries involved, not the 2015 editions of those teams.  Navboxes such as this simply contribute to the bottom-of-the-page cruft which has exploded across many of our sports articles in the last four or five years, without providing any additional useful links or information for the reader.   In the future, some further explanation of the reasons for your proposed deletion would be helpful for TfD discussion participants.  Thanks.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 14:41, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
