Template:Roman Kingdom Campaigns

 * 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. Noting for the record that Articles for deletion/Battle of Alba Longa was closed as redirect (except for Battle of Lacus Curtius which was kept). (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 20:13, 22 March 2024 (UTC) The campaigns described in this template all come from the mythological period of the Roman kingdom, involving men (Romulus most especially) who are broadly believed not to have existed. This is part of a broad set of XFD listings that I intend to commence (AFD). Ifly6 (talk) 21:31, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Infobox Sanamahist term
 * Keep : This template functions in the similar way like those of Template:Infobox Tibetan-Chinese, Template:Infobox Russian term, Template:Infobox Hindu term, Template:Infobox Buddhist term, Template:Infobox Arabic term, Template:Infobox Chinese, and the template was used in 50+ articles. The deletion nominator removed the template from most of those articles, possibly because of WP:IDONTLIKETHEM. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Haoreima (talk • contribs)
 * WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS isn't a reason not to delete. I object to use of this template because I think transliterations of Meitei-language proper names into non-Latin alphabets doesn't add anything of value and doesn't square with policy. WP:NOTDICTIONARY. Pepper Beast    (talk)  16:29, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The template isn't for Meitei language proper names. It is for Sanamahism, for which different languages have some of their own way of spellings and pronunciations, which is done in many other similar templates too. Language and religion are different entities. Haoreima (talk) 03:34, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

 * I think the nomination's arguments are pretty weak. OSE is relevant sometimes, but with a half-dozen infoboxes coming before this one, you're going to need a better argument on that point. Claiming these fail NOTDICT is similarly weak, since having transliterations and being the exclusive focus of a definition are pretty far apart. I'm pretty undecided personally.

Template:Christmas-themed literature

 * 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  14:27, 21 March 2024 (UTC) Too wide-ranging and inexhaustable to be useful as a navigation aid, better left for category navigation. Articles are only tangentially related to one another. -- wooden superman  13:21, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Christmas-themed literature


 * Keep—Very useful aid for navigating through the various Christmas-themed works of literature, particularly useful to any Wikipedian looking to research said works of literature. Template is narrowly confined to Christmas literature, excluding Christmas songs, films, television, and paintings.  Works included are more than just "tangentially related"; said works often include (besides Christmas itself) other similar and overlapping themes, too, such as giving, kindness, and magic, if not similar settings (Winter, snow), characters (Santa), and other motifs rarely found outside of Christmas-themed literature.
 * Template is no more inexhaustible than any other media-based template; by this I mean to say that, while more Christmas-themed novels may be written over time and thus added, the same can be said of, e.g., Foo Fighters songs being added over time to Template:Foo Fighters, and I do not believe Christmas-themed novels are being written as rapidly as Foo Fighters songs. (If it is protested that Template:Foo Fighters, e.g., is shorter than Template:Christmas-themed literature, it should be recognized that, even though Christmas has been around for one-hundred-times as long as Foo Fighters, the template is only twice-as-long.)
 * Whereas something like Template:Literature with dogs or Template:Literature about love certainly would be far too inexhaustible to be useful, this is not; Christmas-themed literature is far more narrowly delimited, and certainly sufficiently delimited to make it not-too inexhaustible. Christmas-themed works include so many recurring motifs that said works are easily related to one another, which would not be the case with Template:Literature with dogs or Template:Literature about love.

 * Delete and incorporate all of its entries into List of Christmas-themed literature. This is basically a navbox that attempts to contain a category tree of, which is not what navboxes are for. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:43, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Latin Bible

 * 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. Try to improve the other, before creating a minor fork. Nabla (talk) 17:15, 29 March 2024 (UTC) This recently created infobox template was used on pages where infobox book was previously used (compare: Infobox Latin Bible vs Infobox book). Other than adding latin verses to the infobox for some unclear reason, there isn't that big a difference and this creates yet another template that needs maintenance. Revert the replacments and delete this template. Gonnym (talk) 18:24, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Infobox Latin Bible


 * Keep This template was created because the current Infobox Bible translation couldn't be used on Latin Bible articles due to the lack of parameters "Preceded by" and "Followed by". Latin verses are included not due to an "unclear reason" but because this is a replacement for the Infobox Bible translation. Another template, the Infobox Latin Bible without verses, has been created for articles where it's nearly impossible to find the text of the Bible to include specific verses.
 * EXANXC (talk) 02:49, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
 * If the problem was missing "Preceded by" and "Followed by" that is an awful reason to create a fork of an infobox. Propose those parameters at that template's talk page and see if you have consensus to add them. Gonnym (talk) 10:14, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Merge into Template:Bible translation infobox, per nom. Veverve (talk) 09:00, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete, per nom. Also, I have no idea why the user EXANXC has decided that all Latin Bibles should have the next and previous Latin bible article WP mentioned in its infobox. The user adds those "Preceded by" and "Followed by" bibles without those bibles being related one to the other. Veverve (talk) 09:03, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Those preceded by and followed by parameters existed in those articles for a long time (previous revision), I did not add those. The "Preceded by" and "Followed by" are determined using the time those translations were published by the Catholic Church. Vulgate (4th century) was followed by Leuven Vulgate (1547), Leuven Vulgate was followed by Sixtine Vulgate (1590), Sixtine Vulgate was followed by Sixto-Clementine Vulgate (1592), it was followed by Nova Vulgata (1979). EXANXC (talk) 09:27, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * The "Preceded by" and "Followed by" parameters were used because those bibles were officially endorsed and published by the Catholic Church.
 * The 4th-century Vulgate and the Leuven Vulgate are not officially published and endorsed bibles by the Catholic Church. Veverve (talk) 11:38, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
