Template:A. Smith & Co.

 * 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. Plastikspork ―Œ (talk) 19:05, 14 April 2022 (UTC) Parent article redirects to another article. It isn't clear what connection "A. Smith & Co." has to these shows, as most of their articles don't even mention the connection at all. And I don't think we generally group shows by distributor like this. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 22:26, 1 April 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗  plicit  23:45, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * A. Smith & Co.
 * Keep A. Smith and Co. is the production company (not distributor) for these shows. We do group shows by producer. Alternately it could be named after the head producer, Arthur Smith (producer), who is the A. Smith in the company name. Dick Wolf works that way instead of using his production company name Wolf Films -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 02:55, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Let the main article about the producer serve as an alternative to the navbox with mention of the shows produced with a filmography section. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:58, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * We have many TV producer templates Category:Television producer templates -- We have equivalent templates for film production companies. Such as the production company templates CNN Films, Comedy Central Films, National Geographic films -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 21:02, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Those navboxes are different in terms of what they present related to the subject. You haven't actually addressed the concerns of the nomination. The main article that's supposed to exist for this navbox is redirected to the actual producer's article. Many of the shows linked make either one or no mention at all other than mostly in the infobox. And Smith's article already covers the shows he has produced under this section. The filmography is already covered, but could still use a list format. Navboxes shouldn't cover something that can easily be found on his article. "We have many TV producer templates" is not a reason. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:38, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Exactly how is it different from Aaron Spelling or Stephen J. Cannell, excepting that it is named after the production company instead of the producer person? (which could be fixed by renaming it to Arthur Smith (producer)). We could just add years to the template and separate out into two rows for created and produced, and produced only -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 02:33, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
 * A navbox is meant to connect articles that have some connection to one another. Arthur Smith and his company have produced these shows, but these articles make little to no mention of him. Thus, the navbox does not meet the requirements of navigation. It's supposed to be clear from the existence of a navbox alone. But it isn't as the articles don't signfy such a connection. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 14:27, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete. Per WP:FILMNAV, we don't make navboxes for filmographies unless the navbox topic is the creator of the work. I don't see how the logic would be any different for the small screen. And I would be pleased to see Aaron Spelling and Stephen J. Cannell deleted for the same reasons. --Bsherr (talk) 17:29, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Template:2020s in political history in the Americas

 * 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. Plastikspork ―Œ (talk) 22:44, 14 April 2022 (UTC) Unused and the majority of links with the exception of two are already on Template:2020s in political history. 2020s in political history covers all the continents and subregions. Don't think there is a need for 2020s in political history template for each region in the world even when one template does the job itself. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:23, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * 2020s in political history in the Americas
 * Keep. Well I appreciate the attention and input, but speaking as the originator, this whole area is currently evolving little by little. the prupose of this navbox, for the Americas, was to perhaps give us a continent-specific navbox that could be used in country articles, for countries located in the Americas. --Sm8900 (talk) 19:09, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Is it necessary to have several templates for each region when one could do the same job? Trimming the template into several little templates might be better served by the one you already created. Unless you think that one is going to be too large to navigate easily with the addition of more articles. If that's the case, then it should only include major topics/events during this decade so far, rather than everything from the ten-year period. Same applies to this one nominated if it's kept as is or becomes a subpage of yours if you plan on continuing to work on it. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 19:35, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok, well I have copied it over to my user space, as an alternate option to develop this item. thanks for your help and your reply. --Sm8900 (talk) 20:12, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

Note to closing admin: The creator has copied the exact template into a user subpage. So this can be deleted without any risk of losing any information. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:59, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. Plastikspork ―Œ (talk) 19:08, 14 April 2022 (UTC) Sidebar used in only one page, and it contains generic links to pages about individual sports instead of to articles about this club's sporting activities. This sidebar is not useful. Compare FC Barcelona sections for one that serves a purpose. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:32, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Club Atlético Vélez Sarsfield sections
 * Delete only article is Club Atlético Vélez Sarsfield (which says they're a sports club, but article is about the football club). The other links in the template are just generic links to articles about the sports, and none of the other sports teams of this club appear to have articles on en.wiki so far as I can see. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:45, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per nom. He's right, most of the template's links are generic and not related to CAVS Fma12 (talk) 17:22, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Plastikspork <sub style="font-size: 60%">―Œ <sup style="margin-left:-3ex">(talk) 19:07, 14 April 2022 (UTC) I created these templates to implement an algorithm for calculating grid references from Canada's National Topographic System. With a recent migration of this functionality to a Lua module, these templates are no longer needed, and can now be deleted. --  Denelson83  05:01, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
