Template:TMOblock

 * 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 keep. (non-admin closure) --Trialpears (talk) 21:02, 17 May 2021 (UTC) Pointless temp which give excuse to block busy phone network's IP range on the ground it's an open proxy. 172.93.9.202 (talk) 21:22, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * TMOblock
 * Keep. I think the nominator has misunderstood why this template exists - this template isn't used as a reason for blocking an IP range, it's as an explanation so that editors using T-Mobile know why a huge IP range has been blocked (Which is explained at Advice to T-Mobile IPv6 users). This also isn't unused despite being transclusionless - it's used in the block logs of affected ranges so it will show to any IP editor using a blocked T-Mobile connection. 192.76.8.91 (talk) 21:56, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per 192. Dudhhr (talk) 01:48, 10 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep - this template is not "an excuse" to block a network, it explains why the network is blocked when said blocks are placed. The reason that these blocks have such massive collateral damage is down to how T-Mobile's IPv6 infrastructure works. ƒirefly  ( t · c ) 09:45, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Preview warning modules

 * 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 merge to Module:If preview. Plastikspork ―Œ (talk) 21:54, 17 May 2021 (UTC) Without knowing about the prior TFD, I've merged the functionality of Module:Preview warning to Module:If preview as part of the process of removing hatnote from Common.css (see also prior discussion). (NB the prior discussion was probably closed wrongly as a no-consensus -- I would probably have closed as merge to the module -- but I don't see a need to send it to WP:DRV since it was long enough ago and no one else seems to have had heartburn with the close itself. DRV will take as long to overturn as a TFD anyway.)
 * Preview warning
 * Preview warning message

I've subsequently integrated the module into a dozen or two modules directly and into > 50 templates by use of the wrapper template preview warning. My search indicates I've fully replaced it, and Special:Whatlinkshere indicates it's not transcluded outside the article namespace meaningfully any longer. Its remaining transclusions should clear eventually; I've been editing a few highly-transcluded templates recently as part of the effort above.

Separately to Preview warning, Galobtter started a similar effort at Module:Preview warning message but didn't get around to finishing. That is nominated for similar reasons. Izno (talk) 18:35, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Support Not having multiple modules for the same purpose seems very sensible. When the work queue is finished it appears as both should be essentially orphaned as well already. --Trialpears (talk) 19:55, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Support, but please add documentation to the module if there is something that isn't covered in its child templates. --Gonnym (talk) 12:42, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Template:Irish Stock Exchange

 * 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 merge to Template:Euronext. Izno (talk) 15:59, 16 May 2021 (UTC) Propose merging Template:Irish Stock Exchange with Template:Euronext.
 * Irish Stock Exchange
 * Euronext

Now redundant. The name is no longer accurate, and simply using Template:Euronext in place works without any additonal changes. 151.226.40.70 (talk) 18:50, 30 April 2021 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Izno (talk) 18:26, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
