The result of the discussion was Delete; deleted by AnomieBOT ⚡  08:09, 21 September 2020 (UTC) Unused for 8 months. According to South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands No permanent native population lives in the South Sandwich Islands, and a very small non-permanent population resides on South Georgia, so not sure why British English won't work here.

 * South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands English
 * Delete - SGSSI English template is not used in any articles, and other than the change of flag and very prominent redlink, is identical to British English template. No need for a separate template. PCN02WPS  ( talk  &#124;  contribs ) 02:07, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

I overlooked these in my previous batch, but they still have the same flaws and still should be deleted. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:49, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I've deleted all of the ones where the page is no longer in the relevant category as routine housekeeping. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 18:42, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

Template:UE

 * 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 to Template:UE. No prejudice against a discussion to move to a different (longer/clearer) name, nor an RFD for the redirect. Primefac (talk) 00:22, 26 September 2020 (UTC) Propose merging Template:UE with Template:Uselanguage.
 * UE
 * Uselanguage

Both serve the same purpose, to notify a user about their contribution in a language other than English. No need for different templates saying the same thing in a slightly different way. Gonnym (talk) 13:52, 28 August 2020 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete this template seems to be used once and looks like a direct duplication, so it may even meet speedy deletion criteria. I think it's more confusing for editors t have lots of potential redirects than a single option, particularly in this case where I can't see any evidence of use of the template "UE" (happy to be corrected if I'm missing something).--Tom (LT) (talk) 00:25, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Both templates are subst and not transcluded (I know as I fixed a lot of incorrectly formatted substs of both). Not sure if they are still in use, as those that I fixed were from 2008-09.
 * Comment: Not relevant to this discussion but annoying nevertheless, Template:Use english leads to Uselanguage while Template:Useenglish leads to Template:Uw-english. --Gonnym (talk) 11:28, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Primefac (talk) 16:47, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge, keep Template:UE and redirect the other one to it. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 14:15, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
