 * Infobox FIBA tourney
 * Infobox basketball tournament season

Same article scope, Infobox FIBA tourney does not really add anything unique to FIBA/national teams. –Aidan721 (talk) 22:55, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Infobox FIBA tourney actually does add features not available in Infobox basketball tournament season, such as it's usage of the  \   parameters to standardize looks for different competitions, its automated sequential title creation and automation of link creation to relevant nation team articles, among others. Please, look at the code of both templates. They are vary much not the same. CLalgo (talk) 14:40, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm going to withdraw this proposal. At a glance, they appeared very similar. Perhaps if Infobox basketball tournament season significantly improves there could be a discussion but not now. –Aidan721 (talk) 00:25, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. Izno (talk) 16:13, 27 June 2022 (UTC) There is already a template to show emojis - Template:Emoji. Additionally, there is no need to create a template for each single emoji as was done with this template's subpages. Any usages should be replaced with Emoji. Gonnym (talk) 09:42, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep - I agree with deleting the subpages as seen at the nominations above. However, upon looking closer at Template:Emoji, you will find it has more emojis but is not very user friendly -- For instance, to display a basic smile  you must use the following:
 * The goal of WEmoji is to provide Wikipedians with an easy-to-use, user-friendly system which has codes that are easy to memorize. If you use the other system, you'd need to constantly check the codes depending on the emoji. The code for a sunglasses emoji looks like this on Emoji: . The code for sunglasses on WEmoji looks like this:  . In summary, the two templates are different -- Emoji is better supported, but not as refined. WEmoji is not as well supported, but easier to use.  Urban Versis 32KB ⚡ (talk 23:05, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
 * The templates can give the same result and have very similar syntax (it's written in the documentation). Emoji just giving you more options. For basic "word" usage: vs  (Twemoji 1f60e.svg vs ). Gonnym (talk) 09:51, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was moved Plastikspork <sub style="font-size: 60%">―Œ <sup style="margin-left:-3ex">(talk) 16:40, 25 June 2022 (UTC) Propose renaming Template:Infobox hiking trail to&#32;Template:Infobox trail.

This template covers hiking trails, cycling trails, greenways, and more; so, it makes sense to broaden the name. –Aidan721 (talk) 02:00, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 *  Suport move Makes sense. Pam  D  06:01, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Aidan721, at the top of WP:TFD it says "To propose the renaming of a template or templates, use Requested moves." Frietjes (talk) 15:55, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Support - The term "trail" in Wikipedia referred to your classic hiking trail a long time ago, but has since been expanded to include all the other types of paths mentioned by the nominator here. Therefore I think renaming the infobox as suggested here makes sense and should be harmless. This is my official vote for accounting purposes; see more in my rather lengthy comment below. --- <b style="color:#66CDAA"> DOOMSDAYER 520</b> (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 18:05, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Tangential Comment - I have done a lot of work recently on "trail" articles for Pennsylvania (a topic for which I am knowledgeable), which informs my vote above. However I would like to point out that navigation boxes and categories for "trails" are in really bad shape throughout Wikipedia, due to the definitional issues merely introduced in this discussion about the infobox name. Navboxes for "hiking" trails are polluted with things that do not fall under the definition of hiking (see Template:Maryland hiking trails as just one example among hundreds), pure "hiking" trails appear in navboxes and categories for old railroad tracks that are now bike trails, sidewalks alongside freeways (e.g. US 202 Parkway Trail) have been categorized as hiking, and lots of other confusion in every conceivable direction. I have fixed this problem for Pennsylvania, but for anyone interested in this general topic area, cleaning this up for the rest of the world will give you Wikipedia work for months to come. --- <b style="color:#66CDAA"> DOOMSDAYER 520</b> (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 18:07, 20 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Support move - no prejudice on the rename as we have infoboxes that are listed as Template:Infobox item to keep it simple. – The Grid  ( talk )  18:56, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * SUPPORT since I use it for bike paths. jengod (talk) 23:58, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Support, definitely makes a lot of sense!  𓃦 LunaEatsTuna  (💬) 22:06, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * May I please make a couple of supplementary suggestions. (1) For trails in the UK, can we have an alternative to "Trailheads"? A trailhead is an American concept that refers to a location specifically intended as the start or end point for a hike (or bike ride, or whatever), most often consisting of a dedicated parking area and typically with toilets (rest rooms), information boards, a distribution point for brochures and leaflets, and so on. Such trailheads are not at all common in the UK. In Infoboxes on UK trails, the "trailhead" is usually given as a town or village (rightly so). For exammple, for the Cross Borders Drove Road, one of the "trailheads" is listed as Hawick which is a town of 10,000 people which just happens to be the start or end of the route. So my suggestion is that the Infobox should have an alternative parameter: "Start and end points". (This probably applies to trails in most European countries, not just the UK.)
 * (2) My second suggestion is that, when giving "Elevation gain/loss" in the Infobox, editors should specify in which direction is the gain and which is the loss.
