The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  23:40, 14 January 2022 (UTC) No transclusions, no documentation, no categories, no incoming links. Template was created in mid-2020.

The result of the discussion was speedy delete. Plastikspork ―Œ (talk) 16:06, 8 January 2022 (UTC) No transclusions, no incoming links. Only edits were creation in 2018. This appears to be some sort of experiment that was abandoned. In the meantime, the parent template was converted to Lua in 2020. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:58, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was speedy delete under G7, noting that I am the creator and sole editor of the template. I also have no idea why I created it, so there's that as well. Primefac (talk) 21:29, 7 January 2022 (UTC) No transclusions, no incoming links. There is a better example already in the documentation, at Ahnentafel/doc, and there are additional examples at Ahnentafel/testcases. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:55, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  23:46, 14 January 2022 (UTC) No transclusions, unsourced. Has existed since early 2020. There are no existing sports season articles for this to be placed into; all of the links are redirects to articles about the team or sections of articles about the college or university. It can be userfied if the creator wants to preserve the work in anticipation of the creation of a season article for one of the teams. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:54, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * 2020 Big West Conference men's soccer standings
 * Userfy per nom. We shouldn't have templates lying around on the off-chance someone might use them. Write the 2020 Big West Conference men's soccer season article first and then create the template if required, not the other round. Nigej (talk) 20:18, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete The 2020 season didn't happen thanks to the pandemic. The Big West Conference Men's Soccer Tournament was cancelled and so there is no need for a standings template with a bunch of zeros especially when a potential article won't have much other than not held because of COVID. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:14, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

All remaining links are now redirects with the exception of the main article. No longer helps with article navigation. Grk1011 (talk) 17:56, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  23:47, 14 January 2022 (UTC) Unused template for 249% font-size – it is unusual to want text that big particularly in articles. User:GKFXtalk 17:41, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Xxxx-larger


 * That's not for articles. I imported this for the userbox I created for my userpage. It's unused now but I think someone else might would need to use it like I did earlier. But, I have no issues even if it got deleted because I am not using it now. Lightbluerain ❄ (Talk | contribs)  18:02, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it should parameterize the size it scales to -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 18:16, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Isn't there an alternative that does the same? Nigej (talk) 18:24, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * resize takes a size parameter (as suggested by 65.92 above) and huge does 180% (in fact, huge looks to be very flexible). User:GKFXtalk 18:37, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I support the deletion then. Lightbluerain ❄ (Talk | contribs)  18:44, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  23:38, 14 January 2022 (UTC) This link farm does not constitute an appropriate sidebar, even if it were used at Advanced Direct Connect. If the links are really needed, which seems dubious to me, then they should be added to the "external links" section of the article. * Pppery * <sub style="color:#800000">it has begun... 16:40, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Advanced Direct Connect
 * Delete per nom. Not clear to me what it is. Is it a sidebar? If so WP:SIDEBAR says "Finally, external links should not be included in navigation templates". Perhaps its an infobox, But an infobox "summarizes key features of the page's subject" and it certainly doesn't do that. Nigej (talk) 18:18, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  14:58, 14 January 2022 (UTC) Continung from Templates for discussion/Log/2022 January 4 and as noted there even earlier at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Formula One/Archive 53, these unused Formula One templates are unwanted and won't be used.

 * Formula One circuit timeline (1970–1989)
 * Formula One circuit timeline (1990–2009)
 * Formula One circuit timeline (2010–present)
 * Delete all per nom. Utterly confusing way of showing the information IMO We have articles like Formula One tyres and List of Formula One circuits and a template Formula One circuits which show the information in a much clearer way. Unclear to me whether they were meant to be navboxes or article content; either way they need to go. Nigej (talk) 14:19, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete all – Same rationale as the earlier nomination, they are: Inaccurate, misleading, and most of all completely unnecessary, these templates aren't used anywhere and I can't conceive of a practical application for them. 5225C (talk • contributions) 00:59, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete the circuit timelines as very confusing and unwieldy, and very unlikely to be used. Weak delete the tyre supplier timelines as not too bad, possibly useful (though I think there would be much better ways to present this information) but still unlikely to actually be used.

Template:Political party color
<div class="boilerplate tfd vfd tfd-closed" style="background-color: #e3f9df; padding: 0 10px 0 10px; border: 1px solid #AAAAAA;">
 * 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) 06:00, 15 January 2022 (UTC) This template is basically an early attempt to have a single source for political party colors (instead of endless amount of templates), in the same manner Module:Political party does now. Since then the module has been created. The maintainers recently also brought up the issue of converting this to Lua on the talk page.
 * Political party color

Instead of having two parallel lists, any (valid) entry not in one of the sub-pages of Module:Political party should be added and Template:Political party color redirected to Template:Party color. Gonnym (talk) 13:21, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete I tried to update (Special:Diff/1063911640/1064065327) to use the Political party module but was unsuccessful as the old parties were still to be migrated to the module (see my talk page). After migration, please update the transclusions to use the module directly please update the  from, so that the module will be used instead of the Political party color template.

 * Delete but probably bad for the environment that the data pages with thousands of transclusions are changed daily. Christian75 (talk) 16:14, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * If this is not kept, it should eventually be redirected to Template:Party color. Having multiple different systems for managing party colors seems likely to be confusing, so a redirect seems reasonable. * Pppery * <sub style="color:#800000">it has begun... 23:58, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

 * 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:New discussion. With the assumption (as is usually the case) that the merge can be done for backwards compatibility and/or extant uses properly updated, there is a consensus to merge the templates. The question of whether to restrict this template to only the user talk space did not have any clear consensus (limited discussion etc) so if that is still desired please start a discussion at the template's talk page. Primefac (talk) 18:16, 15 January 2022 (UTC) Propose merging Template:New message with Template:New discussion.
 * New message
 * New discussion

We do not need two templates doing almost precisely the same thing. I have a preference for the template using mbox (new discussion) since I am trying to remove uses of the message box class per TemplateStyles efforts. Izno (talk) 08:26, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * while there is no emotional objection merging the two, this discussion was caused by an unwise edit to redirect New message to New discussion. This redirection broke the deployment of the redirected template. The syntax of each template has sufficient differences that a simple redirection failed. Thus there is work to be done to handle the deployment of New message on those pages that use it.
 * If the templates can be merged without breaking the deployment then I support the merge, else logic means that I oppose it Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 08:32, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Remove templates from any non-User page. We don't need to reinvent systems the default UI already handles. I'd also prefer it just be gone altogether, but people are picky about their user pages I guess. Article talk space on the other hand is not their own personal playground and there is no room for these. After removal add piece of code to prevent these from being reapplied later on. Gonnym (talk) 13:00, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Regarding the merge, it seems very simple. New message 1 is equal to text at New discussion. Gonnym (talk) 13:07, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * @Gonnym As long as whatever needs to be done on a user talk page is performed for the user, my opposition vanishes in the mist. Most users are template syntax illiterate. Getting it working once was "hard enough" for most of us. You are welcome to show me the header on my own user talk page im the alternate template alongside the other, or use my sandbox with pleasure (or create a subpage under my user id) and let me know.
 * I agree regarding non user talk pages Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 16:45, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * There is nothing you need to do. If this passes then whoever implements this will take care that every usage is transferred correctly. Gonnym (talk) 19:14, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Forgive my inexperience in this area. I will let the closing editor/admin interpret my conditional statement above. Thank you @Gonnym. Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 14:53, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
