Hey there! Blast from past: Thoughts on re-redirecting Template:... now that it errors when used in mainspace? Was thinking of adding to it to help "raise awareness" of MOS:ELLIPSIS, also to enable some stuff for use outside of main like repeating the characters. --Slowking Man (talk) 23:26, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Slowking Man, I really don't have a strong opinion on redirecting it to Template:Ellipsis. The place where we still see it being used incorrectly is when people translate pages from the French WP where it means "empty section". But, if the general feeling is to not care about that case, then redirecting it to Template:Ellipsis seems fine. Thanks! Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 13:40, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TfD closure.

Hi, I hope you're well. I noticed you closed Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2024 October 19#Template:WPMASSACHUSETTS as delete and redirect, and the related discussions below it as just delete. However, one of the !votes in that first discussion extended to the related discussions below it. I freely admit that's a little unusual, but shouldn't the discussions all have shared the same result? Thanks for any clarification, Cremastra (u — c) 13:56, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Cremastra: I didn't feel as though a redirect for a US state was necessarily the same as the other cases. But, feel free to create redirects if you think they are useful. If someone disagrees, a discussion will be opened at WP:RFD. Thanks! Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 14:28, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I have. Cheers, Cremastra (u — c) 14:38, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Pages using infobox mountain with potentially incorrectly plural labels

A tag has been placed on Category:Pages using infobox mountain with potentially incorrectly plural labels indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 19:25, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
