The result of the discussion was delete as failing to provide it's primary purpose: a navigational aide Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 10:32, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WBCBL Teams (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The navigational template contains one blue link, Women's Blue Chip Basketball League, which is the only article the template is located in. The template simply creates a list of the basketball teams in the league, thus going against WP:TG, and could better be expressed in a list or table in the league's article. Aspects (talk) 21:46, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Navboxes exist to navigate among linked articles. We often debate whether some red links are acceptable -- in this case they are NO blue links for presently existing articles. This navbox serves no purpose that a list of teams withing the articles would no serve better. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 16:28, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Flashlink (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

It has only 19 use cases and its use is unnecessary as per WP:EL#Rich media. Rezonansowy (talk | contribs) 09:33, 5 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Conceptually, i want to agree, but is the need for the template truly gone? WP:EL#Rich media seems to point toward specifying when an external link requires a proprietary plug-in. Ideally, as some subjective percentage of modern browser adoption meant most were able to view such content without plug-ins, the template would no longer be warranted. Would deletion just roll any uses back to the basic external link template? Cander0000 (talk) 21:39, 9 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 06:26, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The correct style seems to be (Adobe Flash Player) rather than Requires Adobe Flash Player, and it's just as easy to write that as it is to write the template name. And the direct method can work for any plugin, not just those that have a template. I'd reconsider if we wanted to put in an icon or something, but it's easy to re-recreate the template if need be. -- Beland (talk) 22:27, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
