Removing geo microformat
So.. I'm doing some work on coord atm and i'm seriously considering removing the geo microformat... Mostly because apparently it hasn't been valid since at least 2009 ??? Discus... —Th e DJ (talk • contribs) 11:17, 13 March 2020 (UTC)

 * I'm late to this, but I'm -1 on removing it. microformats2 parsers are backwards compatible, so will still parse the geo microformat, as well as the h-geo microformat Izno pointed out. – gRegor (talk • contribs) 00:03, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

UF-timeline -- what is it?
ER (season 9) has UF-timeline template stuff in the "external links" section. I don't think it's doing what it's supposed to be doing, but I don't really know what it's supposed to be doing. Should I remove it? Should I fix it? (I'm probably only willing to devote another 15 minutes or so to this) I also asked this question in Template talk:Timeline-links; I will watch for responses in both places.

 * I think it's intended to display a visual timeline (example) based on hCalendar microformats on the current page. It relies on the domain microform.at to parse those hCalendars into the SIMILE Timeline, but that domain appears to be inactive since ~2017 (based on poking around Wayback Machine). The software that microform.at was running seems to be getting old, too, so I'm not sure if that service is likely to be revived, either at that domain or another. I'm not certain best practice around this, but perhaps you could comment out the template with a note to check back later and see if it's been revived? – gRegor (talk • contribs) 22:48, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
