Template:Winnipeg City Council

 * 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 Delete (non-admin closure) Primefac (talk) 00:07, 6 October 2016 (UTC) Delete; no longer necessary. Consensus formerly allowed Winnipeg's municipal councillors to be considered notable under WP:NPOL, so most city councillors had articles and this template was created to link them. However, that consensus has now been deprecated and the councillors are not considered to pass NPOL anymore, so this template is now serving just to link the mayor and one city councillor whose article cites enough references to survive a "passes GNG anyway" claim. But we don't need a navbox to link just two pages to each other. Bearcat (talk) 07:01, 28 September 2016 (UTC)

to reply to me 13:43, 8 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as an unnecessary wrapper of Infobox Russian district (itself redundant, most likely to Infobox settlement). Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:53, 8 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep, per arguments covered in the previous TfD. Thank you for reminding that it is only used in one article, though—it seems it slipped Andy's mind to clean up after himself after the template had been retained last time.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 8, 2016 ; 13:17 (UTC)
 * I'm not entirely convinced, given that this wrapper has one predefined parameter (CD). Everything else is just passed through unmodified to Infobox Russian district. What's the point? Jc86035 (talk) Use &#123;&#123;re&#124;Jc86035&#125;&#125;
 * You are right about the wrapper using just one predefined parameter, but the main point of the template is to prevent displaying the values in the fields which are inapplicable to city districts (but are applicable to administrative/municipal districts of the federal subjects). There is a whole lot of stuff in the regular district template which should not be shown if it is accidentally filled out for a city district (this happened before and, indeed, is what prompted the creation of the wrapper). That predefined parameter serves as a switch. An alternative is to hardcode that switch into the regular template for each individual parameter inapplicable to city districts, but from the coding point of view it doesn't sound like a good idea—it's pretty messy and a nightmare to maintain. (And as an aside, as far as usage goes, there are currently 305 city districts in Russia, all of which should have articles but only a handful currently do). Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 8, 2016 ; 13:58 (UTC)
 * Keep, agree with Ezhiki--Ymblanter (talk) 15:48, 8 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per Pigsonthewing. It is not necessary to create a wrapper template to prevent certain parameters from being passed. Just don't pass them to the broader template. They do not need to be forced to have no effect. P p p er y 12:22, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
