The result of the discussion was delete. Izno (talk) 14:05, 31 May 2021 (UTC) Unused and doesn't seem to identify an actual problem - Wikipedia doesn't do disclaimers, and we want secondary sources over primary ones. Elli (talk &#124; contribs) 23:29, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. Primefac (talk) 19:39, 3 June 2021 (UTC) Unused and overly-specific cleanup template. Elli (talk &#124; contribs) 23:01, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep: Can be very useful, its just that not many people use this template 🔥LightningComplexFire🔥 13:49, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
 * uh, no one is using this template. I don't think this is a common enough issue to merit its own cleanup template. Elli (talk &#124; contribs) 14:43, 24 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete Unused. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:06, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment: Maybe it could be replaced with an inline cleanup template? I can't imagine an entire article relying on Wikimedia sources, but individual sources might need to be tagged. &horbar;Jochem van Hees (talk) 18:35, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
 * we already have it and it's used a lot: Circular reference – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 14:00, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Ah you're right, I didn't notice that one. Then I'd also say delete this one in favour of Circular reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jochem van Hees (talk • contribs)
 * Delete Unused fork of the already existing Circular. In addition to Wikipedia, I've never ever seen any other Wikimedia project being cited, except for Commons. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 13:59, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Circular needs a slight rewrite if we want it to apply to content from Wiki* directly. Right now it is documented as applying to external content citing Wiki* which we have referenced. Izno (talk) 14:34, 31 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete: not edited since the data were not updated. Asturkian (talk) 08:21, 24 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete The subject at hand can be incorporated into the mainspace article about the Coronavirus pandemic in Asturias. A separate template should not exist about the pandemic in a specific region unless it's the mainspace template such as COVID-19 pandemic data/Asturias medical cases chart. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:11, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. Izno (talk) 17:14, 30 May 2021 (UTC) Significant number of transclusions in userspace due to being linked in Template:Wikipedia templates sidebar, but unused in mainspace. Attempting to follow the link here redirects me to an Indonesian online gambling site, which is probably not something we want to be external linking to. The best way to deal with this IMO is to remove it from the sidebar template and delete. Hog Farm Talk 05:53, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Comixpedia


 * Delete The template is a promotion for a website. Not allowed per Wikipedia's policy. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:31, 23 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete - links to a spammy website, so even if it were in use in mainspace we'd need to remove it. firefly  ( t · c ) 08:50, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. Izno (talk) 17:12, 30 May 2021 (UTC) Following the link produced by the template leads me to a page that states The ArchivesWiki has been discontinued in its current form. The AHA will be taking some time to decide whether we want to revive an archives list and in what format would be most useful. Spot checking several of the usages of this template indicate that those links aren't working, I don't think a template that produces dead links to an external site that is no longer up is useful anymore.
