Template:List of metallic elements

 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more templates or modules. 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. ✗ plicit  14:29, 10 December 2023 (UTC) Single-article sidebar created in 2012 by now-banned editor. Apparently not useful for inter-article navigation, but it may be desirable content in the article in which it is used. Copy/paste and delete, then let the editors at the article's talk page decide whether it should stay or not. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:30, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
 * List of metallic elements
 * Why is it ? It looks useful to me. Edward-Woodrow (talk) 00:33, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Because no other article uses this after 11 years. Gonnym (talk) 03:40, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Well, that's fixed. I've added it to a few relevant articles, I'll see if I can add it to more soon. Edward-Woodrow (talk) 01:35, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * It still seems redundant to to me. Double sharp (talk) 04:26, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 01:20, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Still woefully underused (relative to its links) and since element articles have a giant infobox there's no room for sidebars. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:37, 8 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete. I agree with Pppery. If after 11 years and this discussion, the amount of articles this was added to is 4, while at the same time this sidebar has a few dozen links, then this isn't needed and is probably covered by other navigation templates. Gonnym (talk) 11:50, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  03:42, 6 December 2023 (UTC) Single-article table with no template parameters, apparently created by moving properly placed article content into Template space. Copy into article and delete. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:21, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Periodic table (van der Waals radius)
 * Keep: useful for separating such a large amount of wikitext into a manageable chunk. Infobox platinum is similar. Edward-Woodrow (talk) 01:41, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Infobox platinum and its brethren should be substed and deleted as well IMO. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:27, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Yeah, completely agree. Those 124 templates are basically the only infoboxes that used directly in an article. Gonnym (talk) 13:49, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Subst and delete per nom. The purpose of templates is to store wikitext used on multiple pages, not squirrel away chunks of articles elsewhere. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:27, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

Single-article tables with no template parameters. Created by now-banned editor. Copy into article and delete. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:04, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Subst and delete all per nom. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:27, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Subst and delete all - No prejudice against somebody re-templating one of these if the info is needed on multiple pages, but most of these seem to cover too narrow a topic for a standalone template to make sense. &#12296; Forbes72 &#124; Talk &#12297; 02:59, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗ plicit  23:31, 5 December 2023 (UTC) No transclusions. This US college football conference no longer exists, having been replaced by a few different new conferences and rebranded a couple of times. A replacement navbox, United Athletic Conference football venue navbox, is in use now, and this one is no longer usable. See also this article section, if it helps. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:38, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
