- Template:NLL Drafts (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Only one article in the nav box exists. NLL draft articles are not likely to be started and shouldn't be. NLL Season and team articles can cover the drafts. - Mnnlaxer | talk | stalk 04:15, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was withdrawn Frietjes (talk) 15:25, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
unused, many of the links are not East Germany-specific, but instead about Germany as a whole, and are hence covered by Template:Politics of Germany. the elections are in Template:East German elections. Frietjes (talk) 13:43, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
- Keep Not sure whether we're looking at the same template, but the vast majority of links I see in that template are East Germany-specific. The only three that aren't are the two links to Elections and Referendums, which are misleading and I have now delinked; the only outstanding one is to the CDU.

- Template:B. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:Oxf. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:N. Y. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
These templates are not safe for COinS use in citation templates, and with the exception of NY are unused. I also don't see much point in their usage, given that typing out the templates actually takes the same (or more) number of characters than simply typing out the names. And while "NY" and "Oxf" are somewhat clear, "B." makes zero sense as an acronym for "Berlin".
There are other similar templates in Category:Templates:Locations in bibliography but the nominated pages use English characters while the others use Cyrillic. However, I am not opposed to extending this nomination to all templates in that category. Primefac (talk) 15:29, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. It's correct that
{{B.}}isn't meaningful as an abbreviation of Berlin. We have no need to ever use{{Oxf.}}since it should be spelled out at first occurrence (including in citations), and thereafter there's no need for the abbr markup.{{N. Y.}}is also useless. We don't use abbreviated US place names in this manner, and we would never space apart such an abbreviation if we did use it. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 04:04, 27 November 2017 (UTC) - Comment: There are several others in Category:Templates:Locations in bibliography, most of them Russian, Turkish, etc., and which should also be deleted; have no reason to ever give locations in bibliographies in native-language renditions rather than in English, and we would not abbreviate them to one or two letters regardless. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 04:10, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment I didn't see the above comment when it was made. I think it's tacit approval for adding the following templates to the TFD, though I suspect that they'll probably be ignored for coming too late. Might I ask for a relist to get input on them?
- Template:İs. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:Душ. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:К. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:Л. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:М. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:СПб. (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- If there's not enough consensus I'm fine starting a new discussion, but there's not been any opposition so far... Primefac (talk) 00:21, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
Relisting comment: Looking for further discussion on Cyrillic templates.

- Comment well that was fast. I've added the TFD notice to the other templates. Primefac (talk) 00:28, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
