Template:Automata theory

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was Keep (non-admin closure) Primefac (talk) 02:57, 5 October 2016 (UTC) The color is distracting, it's not obvious that it's clickable and it does not add anything not already listed in Template:Formal languages and grammars. If deleted, the image should probably be deleted as well. Cic (talk) 16:28, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Automata theory


 * The template isn't redundant to Template:Formal languages and grammars, which is an order of magnitude larger in terms of listed entries, can't fit in the lede of an article, and doesn't contain the helpful illustrative image. This template is integral to the lede structure in the five articles it transcludes on, so at the least this discussion should be listed on the talk pages of these articles. If that doesn't happen, I'd suggest a procedural speedy keep, and if it does – provisional keep per my reasons above. Uanfala (talk) 12:16, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep I agree mostly with what Uanfala says. The colours I don't see as particularly irritating, and the cool, but very old way of pulling you between the hierarchy I find refreshing. I wish we had more of it on WP. These five article would need double worked, why?, to recreate the hierarchy. Keep. Scope creep (talk) 13:33, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was Keep (non-admin closure) Primefac (talk) 02:56, 5 October 2016 (UTC) A navigation template for a band with six articles seems hardly necessary, particularly when nearly every article has a link to the others already (primary topic and discography do; album articles link to at least one and usually two of the album articles) Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:26, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Capital Kings
 *  Keep - Navbox has at least 5 links, four of which do not connect to all of the other articles. This is the exact purpose of a navbox, to connect related articles that would not otherwise be connected for an ensemble that is still producing music. --Jax 0677 (talk) 13:17, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
