Template:Past Masters

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template(s) or module(s) 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. Izno (talk) 04:17, 23 March 2021 (UTC) This collection of songs is lesser than but redundant to Template:The Beatles singles. We have footer navboxes for all the Beatles' albums, but none for compilations, and I don't see why this compilation should be considered in the same league as an official Beatles album. Binksternet (talk) 23:49, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Past Masters
 * then why is it an official album? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Minemaster1337 (talk • contribs)
 * I would like see links to reliable WP:SECONDARY sources that consider Past Masters an official Beatles album. Binksternet (talk) 02:24, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Notwithstanding the above comments, we need to remember that this is a navbox; its only purpose in life is to aid navigation between the articles in the template (see WP:NAVBOX). The question is simply whether this navbox does that. The first thing to note is that the template isn't in most of the song articles (eg Love Me Do) - so it isn't aiding navigation between the articles if it's not there. Basically the fact that they're in the "Past Masters" album is not a defining feature of these songs, and as such the link between the songs is quite tenuous from a navigation point of view.

Template:Chop head and tail

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template(s) or module(s) 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. Izno (talk) 04:19, 23 March 2021 (UTC) Obsolete to Module:String's sub function and barely used outside of sandboxes. User:GKFXtalk 22:34, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Chop head and tail


 * Replace those instances and then delete, per nominator.
 * First observation: the variables in Module:String's sub function that determine the position are not identical to the variables used by Template:Chop head and tail, rather they are off by 1 (Template:Chop head and tail counts how much to chop off, while Module:String's sub function counts what to leave).
 * Secondly, and this is a rather insurmountable obstacle, the second position variable in Template:Chop head and tail is counted from the end of the string, while in Module:String's sub function it is counted from the beginning. Debresser (talk) 00:05, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Module:String says (for the "sub" option) "If either i or j is a negative value, it is interpreted the same as selecting a character by counting from the end of the string. Hence, a value of -1 is the same as selecting the last character of the string." Nigej (talk) 09:14, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. That solves the issue: (456543) would become  , and in general  would become  . Debresser (talk) 16:55, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I think sandboxes should probably be left alone rather than fixed, since they are supposed to test specific code not display specific content? Besides the conversation above, that just leaves Template:Mfd top collapse which I have an edit request in for, and the redirect cht. User:GKFXtalk 20:13, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I think as a courtesy to editors, to keep functionality, all transclusions should be replaced. Debresser (talk) 20:31, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Note: My edit request on Mfd top collapse has been put on hold until this TfD closes; it's not just the trivial substitution so it would be great if it could be carried out as requested when required. User:GKFXtalk 14:22, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
