- Keep It's used the same way Template:2014 FIFA World Cup finalists and other similar templates are used. Joeykai (talk) 12:34, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- Keep (edit conflict) Unused is a silly argument, as it is easy fixed - 20 minutes work by Joeykai and presto! It's used. Apart from that is there any actual argument here? Also, how is this different from, say Template:UEFA Euro 2016 finalists, or any template in the Category:UEFA European Championship finalist navigational boxes and the like? --SuperJew (talk) 12:37, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

- Template:1939 shipwrecks (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unused, only links other templates Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 00:05, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
- If you review the shipwreck templates for 1914 through 1918 and for 1939 through 1945, you will see that during the two world wars, shipwreck templates are by month unless the month of the shipwreck is unknown, in which case it goes into a template for the entire year. The template for the entire year also includes links to shipwreck templates for each month of the year. The only year that does not yet have any shipwrecks with unknown months is 1939, which is why the shipwreck template for 1939 is constructed the way it is. If you delete this template, you destroy the consistent pattern established for all other World War I and World War II yearly shipwreck templates without gaining anything worthwhile. You also make it impossible to navigate easily from one month to another within 1939, something possible in all other wartime years. I request that you retract this nomination for deletion and instead bring up the matter with WikiProject Shipwrecks on their discussion page. They could do a better job of discussing options there than this deletion discussion could. Better yet, improve Wikipedia by writing an article or two on 1939 shipwrecks with unknown dates and solve the "problem" – if it really is a problem – that way. Mdnavman (talk) 00:44, 20 June 2017 (UTC)mdnavman
- Another issue to consider that would arise from deletion: If this template is deleted, it will make 1939 the only year between 1862 (currently; I continued to push the date back) and 2017 that does not have its own annual navigation template. This will be confusing for Wikipedia users, make quick navigation from 1938 to 1939 to 1940 much harder, and require resurrection of the 1939 template when ships with unknown dates have articles created. All without gaining anything for Wikipedia or its users.Mdnavman (talk) 14:35, 21 June 2017 (UTC)mdnavman
- keep, part of a series, and there are a few links which could be added when the articles are written. Frietjes (talk) 14:58, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
- changing the links to link to articles is a great idea as well. Frietjes (talk) 13:44, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. We should not be linking to templates from within templates in this way. The point is to keep the reader in mainspace, they wouldn't expect to and shouldn't end up in template space. If they were reading SS Castillo de Olite and clicked on the "1940" link at the bottom, they'd end up at Template:1940 shipwrecks which is a pretty much useless place to be. Maybe a {{Shipwrecks by month}} template should be created, similar to {{WWII shipwrecks}} which provides better navigation. --Rob Sinden (talk) 15:06, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- Alternatively, the links in this template could be replaced with links to relevant articles, not the templates. That might work. --Rob Sinden (talk) 15:08, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- delete User:Robsindens suggestion is most functional and convincing. templates should be nested from bottom up: from the most granular to the least.68.151.25.115 (talk) 01:57, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep at least in the interim. It seems like this template is one of an entire series that should be discussed (at WT:SHIPS?), rather than nominated for deletion one by one. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 00:54, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

- Template:Latest stable software release/TrueCrypt (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Not in use anymore.
Subpages of Template:Latest stable software release are transcluded by {{Infobox software}} into an article whose subject is the same as the subpage name. Doing so keeps the version number updating edits off the main article. But because of the discontinuation of its subject, this template will never be updated again. As such, I've transcluded its contents into the main article. Codename Lisa (talk) 10:36, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
