Template:Calendar, clock, date and time computing templates (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This navbox seems rather unnecessary. The digital clocks are mostly in userspace (and already in Category:Clock templates), ~~the analog clocks are likely to be deleted soon (they're at TFD),~~ and the "date and time" section is a duplicate of {{date templates}}. In other words: no useful navigation that wasn't there before it was created. Primefac (talk) 05:12, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The analog clocks have been deleted, and the template has been updated accordingly. Primefac (talk) 20:23, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
What should be made of the templates that are linked here, but not in {{date templates}}? Should the other template be expanded? – Uanfala (talk) 20:29, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
merge with {{date templates}} to make {{date and time templates}}. Frietjes (talk) 14:49, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: It seems a merge is generally supported and is sensible. Discussion should focus on what the result of a merge should be. Do we merge into the nominated template to create a navbox or merge into Template:Date templates to create something for "see also" sections?

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

Only used on one article, and has very few advantages over the standard <Ref>...</Ref> machinery. Ppp ery 21:53, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:CITE's admonition not to change reference formats without consensus and per the lack of any other obvious way to obtain this format on the article in question, Phineas Gage. The right way to do this would have been to obtain consensus on Talk:Phineas Gage to change its reference format, then to edit the article to use whatever other format is agreed on, then to delete the orphaned template. Doing it this way instead amounts to a backdoor attempt to go around the local article consensus. And if these templates were to be deleted, then it would still be necessary to obtain consensus on Gage for a new format and to edit the article into another format, so you're not saving any steps by doing it in the wrong order. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:00, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, agreeing with the above. There has already been really extensive discussion and an RFC about the citation style used on Phineas Gage and the design of and reasons for these templates, see the talk archives. --Mirokado (talk) 00:58, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep What D.E. and Mirokado said. Everything that's now standard practice started out as an oddity in an isolated article. E Eng 14:17, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral, but noting that the most recent RfC at Talk:Phineas Gage ended with a consensus that the formatting of the page, when dealt with in edit mode, is a mess, so there is actually something of a local page consensus against keeping this template. --Tryptofish (talk) 21:35, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - For the love of all that’s holy, either chuck this template into the abyss or someone better snow close this fast. Phineas Gage is just dreadful to look at; there are more than 250 instances of "See TfD" and 30 odd "being considered for deletion…. to help reach a consensus." messages in the article. - NQ (talk) 15:17, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Or better yet, Pppery could withdraw it. More than enought time has been wasted on this already, including a bizarre edit war [1] in which he insists on the article remaining blighted so that 2000 readers each day have to each look at 500 notifications of this "important deletion discussion" as they read the article.

It is unused and duplicate indeed.

Propose merging Template:Spam-request with Template:Advert.
Fairly obvious. Spam-request goes into more detail about linkspam, but Advert only mentions "external links" once. KATMAKROFAN (talk) 03:15, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose merge: These have different purposes. The {{Advert}} template is to tag an article as having a promotional tone. It mentions links, but that is not its primary focus. In contrast, {{spam-request}} is specifically for tagging the presence of linkspam. They are different, and therefore should be kept separate. —BarrelProof (talk) 18:26, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose merge Linkspam is a discrete issue which can sometimes but not always accompany other forms of promotionalism. Ofter it can be dealt with very easily, and [possible deletion of the article is unlikely if it is the only problem. Cleaning it is a good job for relative beginners. Promotionalism in general is often much more complicated, frequently requiring major rewriting or even deletion. Dealing with it properly occupies a good deal of the time of some of our most experienced editors. . DGG ( talk ) 19:32, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. The templates serve obviously different purposes. Advert is for content generally while Spamrequest is for linkspam. James (^talk/_contribs) 03:33, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

move, per GB fan, unless you believe it does not stand a chance in a eventual AfD nomination (it is a poor article, but I guess it may stand). not-so-speedy delete as test, per Redrose64, as second choice. note: I also met this one while deciding to delete or not, I gave it a pass to the next pair of eyes, because as Redrose64 says the rationale was not good. - Nabla (talk) 00:20, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template:The Flash ratings (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Template was originally created for transclusion at List of Arrow episodes, per addition edit, then the edit was reverted by myself due to incorrect formatting. Once the template was fixed, the templated was reinstated by the creating editor, which was then reverted by another editor. This means that the template is no longer transcluded to any articles.
