The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  11:31, 28 January 2022 (UTC) this is a follow-up to the December 24 discussion ... January 4 discussion. single-use weather box templates, per numerous prior discussions, these should be merged with the transcluding article and deleted. we have thousands of weatherboxes in thousands of articles, and the convention is that we put them in a separate template only when they are transcluded in more than one article.

The result of the discussion was Delete; deleted as G7 by AnomieBOT ⚡  06:26, 21 January 2022 (UTC) Every single function except for  is redundant to some pre-existing functionality (usually the   parser function), and I don't see the value in a module to calculate pi to an arbitrarily large number of digits. * Pppery * it has begun... 16:30, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

 * NumberTools
 * How about the number prefix? Anpang01 (talk) 01:24, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * If you mean the  function, then that's redundant to ordinal. I don't see any code involving prefixes in this module, so you'll have to be more specific if you mean something else. * Pppery * it has begun...  01:27, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, didn't know that existed. I just searched up like "number prefix" and it didn't appear, sorry. It can be deleted. Anpang01 (talk) 02:48, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Fair enough. See diff. I have added two missing templates to the list. – Fayenatic  L ondon 16:38, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete all per nom. The old one was basically article content, not a navbox. Nigej (talk) 17:00, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. I meant to get to that and and it slipped my mind, thanks Jonesey. As Nigej says, the above templates are really article content that belongs at Monetary Policy Committee (United Kingdom) if there is interest in that. As a navigation tool, Monetary Policy Committee (United Kingdom) is simple and easier to update when needed. Gonnym (talk) 17:56, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Wikiblog disclaimer
 * Delete fails WP:NOTSOCIALNETWORK and replace the uses at User:Otheus/Vaknin and User:Otheus/objectivity with essay -- and I've no idea why this is being used on User:Otheus/lady which looks like an WP:SPI report, or why has a private SPI page for a common phrase "the lady doth protest too much" -- seems like something that should be MfD'd -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 05:28, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  14:38, 27 January 2022 (UTC) This template only links to 2 articles, one of which is actually on Japanese WP. So really only links to 1 article. There is not much value of having a template linking to one article. LibStar (talk) 03:31, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Diplomatic missions in Trinidad and Tobago
 * Delete Per my comments at Templates for discussion/Log/2022 January 18, I'm fundamentally opposed to the system used at List of diplomatic missions in Trinidad and Tobago where this navbox provides the only link from there to Apostolic Nunciature to Trinidad and Tobago. WP:NAVBOX says "Do not rely solely on navboxes for links to articles highly relevant to a particular article. Navboxes are not displayed on the mobile website for Wikipedia, which accounts for around half of readers." Nigej (talk) 07:23, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep I've added the Turkish Embassy to T&T and is linked now across three articles. Although, there aren't the basic five links needed for a navbox, however, it is still useful in my view in terms of navigation. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 15:49, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
