Does not comply with WP:NAVBOX guidelines, which suggest that "the subject of the template should be mentioned in every article", "The articles should refer to each other, to a reasonable extent," and "If not for the navigation template, an editor would be inclined to link many of these articles in the See also sections of the articles." This collection of apocrypha (TLBotBatFBoE for short) is one of many, many published collections of apocrypha (if each collection had their own navbox, we'd have 10 similar navboxes at the bottom of a lot of articles). TLBotBatFBoE was merely reusing centuries old translations, was written millennia after these works were originally published, and is a rather eclectic set of works that would not easily be linked by a "See also" section (the letters of Ignatius are authentic letters by a 2nd century Christian; the Letter of Aristeas is a 2nd or 3rd century BCE Jewish work; the Gospel of Nicodemus is a medieval pseudepigraphic work; these aren't closely linked, and they're written over a millennium apart). The articles (correctly) don't generally mention their inclusion in this collection. It might be worth making an exception if TLBotBatFBoE was truly epicly popular, the authoritative 20th & 21st century source on these works, but a check of Amazon review count shows this collection with fewer reviews & ratings than other, more modern apocrypha collections. Anyway, apocrypha navboxes are fine, but the linked articles are already connected by {{Jewish Apocrypha}}, {{New Testament Apocrypha}}, and so on. This template is generally redundant to them with the exception of a few articles - and those articles (e.g. Odes of Solomon) should probably be included in a different navbox anyway with more directly related works.

Unused Germany district image maps. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:45, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. These templates were meant for use in the infoboxes for the muncipalities in these districts. For some reason the automatic transclusion of these templates from the infoboxes was broken, probably because the infobox uses the vehicle registration code (which was modified in the articles). Since I think these clickable maps are valuable, I have added them to the respective district articles (Meissen (district) and Saale-Holzland-Kreis). Markussep Talk 10:52, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Markussep if there is a bug in the functionally of the infobox you should post on it on the talk page so it can be fixed. Gonnym (talk) 11:08, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is that since a few years several licence plate codes are possible in each district, so for instance Priestewitz now lists MEI, GRH, RG, RIE. The infobox doesn't find a template {{Imagemap Germany district MEI, GRH, RG, RIE}}, so no clickable map is given. Maybe we can think of something intelligent like looking for commas and ignoring everything after a comma. Markussep Talk 11:17, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as now used. Gonnym (talk) 11:07, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unused medal icon templates. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:12, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Regardless of being unused or not, we shouldn't be using these gold medal specific-type icons like those in Category:Medal icon templates (and which a few recent discussions have resulted in deletions). There are a few issues with these: the icon is just too small to be of use to a large portion of our readers; The color fails MOS:CONTRAST. Finally, these are pretty much redundant. The gold medal is not showing out of context and is showing in relation to a tournament so if it is an Olympic tournament it is obviously an Olympic medal. Creating medals for each tournament will be a huge maintenance burden instead of just dealing with 1 single gold medal template. Gonnym (talk) 08:15, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: This template works better than {{Compact ToC}} on these pages, so I think we should keep it. Thanks,  Buaidh  talk e-mail 01:34, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
delete after replacing with {{Compact TOC}} or {{A-Z multipage list}}. also, it's very confusing that L-Z is split from the main page, but A-K is not. they should either both be split, or neither. Frietjes (talk) 15:27, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This template claims that the material tagged with it is not meant to be taken seriously. However, material tagged with this template is actually the only material on the entire site that is meant to be taken seriously. This needs to be fixed! - Preceding signed comment added by Evil Sith Lord (talk • contribs) 07:30, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Mark historical It used to be that the court jester could ridicule the king and get away with it by calling it comedy. Ever since the revolt of the proletariat, the king has been replaced by the oligarchy and the oligarchs seem to have less tolerance for comedy. Also pouring one out for Barbara (WVS), a former purveyor of humor for The Signpost as things got so serious. Chris Troutman (talk) 16:57, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
