Template:Infobox Flyovers (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This can be merged into {{Infobox road junction}}. Any missing parameters can be added. Imzadi 1979 → 18:46, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

~~Provisional~~ support provided that all appropriate parameters are implemented. --Rs chen 7754 18:49, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I've added everything that should need to be added. I converted two (of the six) articles as a test, Anna Flyover and Kathipara Junction. Imzadi 1979 → 19:53, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support This was poorly conceived and used. Superior replacement. Secondarywaltz (talk) 21:16, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Redirect. -FASTILY ^(TALK) 03:05, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Nn-warn (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

As far as I can determine this is completely redundant to template:Db-notability-notice. I can see no reason to have two substantially identical warnings for this. The other template works by substitution of template:Db-notice, which allows for easy updating of the template. Suggest we redirect this to template:Db-notability-notice Yoenit (talk) 16:58, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, don't need both. But Nn-warn has a button labeled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" while Db-notability-notice just has the text "...contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled 'Click here to contest this speedy deletion'". The former seems a little better, but I'm not sure. Whichever one Twinkle uses should be retained and the other deleted I suppose, and if it's Nn-warn that's deleted, arguably the code and text supporting the button labeled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" should be copied over to Db-notability-notice, assuming that that's an improvement. Herostratus (talk) 18:18, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually Db-notability-notice (and all other db-...-notice templates) used to have the same box, but it was removed in this edit. He probably never realized we have a second set of templates which are not automatically updated. Yoenit (talk) 20:29, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Correction: It had a button but without the link functionality. A nice example how duplicate templates can lead to both being suboptimal. I agree this part of the nn-warn template should be merged. The db-...-notice templates are the ones used by wp:TWINKLE btw. Yoenit (talk) 20:45, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Can nn-warn be preserved as an alias (redirect) to the other template? For those of us who don't use Twinkle, it's easier to type (and remember) the short form over the long. (And yes, I put nn-warn and nn-warn-deletion on users' talk pages fairly reguarly.) —C.Fred (talk) 02:19, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- As nominator my idea was from the beginning to merge/redirect it rather than deletion. Yoenit (talk) 09:59, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:AIDS Compounds (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Seems to be a fork of {{Drugbox}}. Its transclusions should be changed accordingly. ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 15:30, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The reason seems to be the NIAID-AIDS parameter. I have asked for comments on inclusion of this parameter on WT:PHARM#Template:AIDS Compounds. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 15:50, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I have no particular objection to including the NIAID-AIDS parameter in {{Drugbox}}, but creating a new template for the purpose of introducing this parameter is counterproductive. ChemNerd (talk) 16:05, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into the drug box. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 21:12, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The parameter in question is already included in the drugbox as "NIAID_ChemDB", and all mainspace transclusions have been removed. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 08:48, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Kid Icarus series (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Only navigates four articles and only three are in the series--the other is the progtagonist, which would be well-linked in any article. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:13, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I would say there is a good likelihood that the three games in the series are also wikilinked from each others' articles, in prose or in the Infobox, making this Navbov entirely redundant. Salvidrim! 19:54, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
