Template:Infobox ice hockey team season

 * 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 Merge. (non-admin closure) The sole person who objected to this merge initially, and requested it be discussed, as withdrawn their objection. Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 21:23, 7 January 2017 (UTC) Propose merging Template:Infobox NHL team season & Template:Infobox WHA team season to Template:Infobox ice hockey team season.
 * Infobox ice hockey team season
 * Infobox KHL team season Note this one has 0 transclusions so it can be merged without discussion.
 * Infobox NHL team season
 * Infobox WHA team season

Multiple pages that are KHL/NHL/WHA seasons already use Template:Infobox ice hockey team season. I see no reason not to upmerge all these templates. I had initially done this already but the change was reverted by saying I needed to get consensus. So consensus I shall get. I also think that my upmerge broke a few things. Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 18:45, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Hold I am not sure this is possible as the leagues operate differently, with conferences, divisions, different championship criteria. I believe the rest might be very similar. Have you made all of the attributes for each of the league templates work in the Infobox ice hockey one? Alaney2k (talk) 19:23, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * the only difference between them is that they have different championships. If you look at the code currently in the sandbox, it will work for all 3 templates as I have added each of the championships in. It was working already. I still don't know why reverted it. There was no noticeable change on the frontend to the user. -- Zackmann08  (Talk to me/What I been doing) 19:33, 5 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Note please see Template:Infobox ice hockey team season/sandbox where use cases for all 3 templates are laid out showing that the updated code for Template:Infobox ice hockey team season will work for all 3 templates. The param has already been added to KHL and WHA pages. Since NHL represents at least 90% of the hockey team season pages, NHL is the default league in the template. A tracking category has also been added for any page that does not specify a league so that they can be traced down. -- Zackmann08  (Talk to me/What I been doing) 20:21, 5 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Sorry I didn't mean it had to go all the way to tfd, just meant on the talk page or wikiproject. I just thought we should look at it before hand because we have seen people merge templates without talking in the past and have lost functionality. Being that these templates are used on hundreds of articles so merging shouldn't be done without atleast a comment of intention posted on a talk page. That being said if they all work the same once merged I am all good with it. -DJSasso (talk) 21:25, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * do you mind looking at the sandbox code and confirming that they DO work the same? And then if they do, can we could you as a merge vote? -- Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 21:29, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

Includes about 35 entries, but only 3 that actually link to articles – and none of those articles use it anyway. Jellyman (talk) 09:27, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Areas of Glenrothes


 * Delete With so few links to articles this seems more like a list than a template and as such is not much benefit to anyone as it currently stands. Dunarc (talk) 19:40, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was Delete (non-admin closure) Primefac (talk) 04:40, 15 January 2017 (UTC) Award-winners template for a minor award presented by a non-notable film festival. The festival doesn't even have an article; the "BRAFFTV" in its headline just links directly to the main article on the city of Toronto rather than to anywhere that might explain why we should give a hoot about "BRAFFTV".

Template:Infobox ice hockey team season should be used... Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 06:50, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Infobox MontrealCanadiensSeason
 * Hold for study - (edited) Is it possible this can support the NHA seasons, when they used the O'Brien Cup for league championship, but could also win the Stanley Cup? Maybe the WT:HOCKEY group can discuss. Alaney2k (talk) 15:01, 5 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep This template has parameters that are for the time before the NHL existed and the Canadiens were in other leagues. The other teams were not in that situation so don't need one. -DJSasso (talk) 16:54, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * To be clear I'm talking about merging these... Not just deleting the template... -- Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 23:16, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was Delete. Plastikspork <sub style="font-size: 60%">―Œ <sup style="margin-left:-3ex">(talk) 23:53, 18 January 2017 (UTC) Outdated template without real use. The riders in the 2013 group are there. That information isn't going to change. There is no reason to have a template (even if used on multiple pages) to convey information that is completely static. Should be merged with List of 2013 UCI ProTeams and riders and then deleted <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 00:43, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

 * I do not know if there is already a list of teams and riders for 2017, that is why I did not (yet) nominate the 2016-templates. As far as I know all others are nominated. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 17:46, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Looks like has taken care of it. I'm not sure if there was ever a discussion about the proposal for them, but I'm sure it wasn't Cs-wolves. Correct me if I'm wrong but I have a feeling it was . Is this fallout from all the recent drama? BaldBoris 22:41, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Looking through my edit history, I created 7 in 2015 and all the 2014 ones, but I do think that was off the back of Sander doing the 2013 ones, as far as I can remember... Craig  (talk)  22:50, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * So are we keeping 2017 ones? Are there other sports teams that use this method? Also, Category:UCI WorldTeams templates will be redundant now. BaldBoris 23:03, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
