Template:Yes3

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗plicit 00:20, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We already have {{Yes}} and {{Yes2}} in unified table cell templates. Yes3 differs only by using a different colour. It was being used in articles that did not use {{Yes}} or {{Yes2}}, so its use was determined only by colour, not by meaning. This can surely lead to Yes4, Yes5, Yes6, etc. which differ only by colour, which will almost certainly lead to a big mess over time. Fernando Trebien (talk) 23:54, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No transclusions, incoming links, or categories. This template makes a table from three parameters, but it is not that much different from just making a wikitable, and less configurable.

The result of the discussion was delete after ensuring that a subsection of its content is in some form kept in the List of dates for Easter, similar to Hanukkah#Dates, which can be dynamic yet still stored in the article (and without the need for it to be "absurdly long").

This template messes up pages like Easter controversy with very little value. Gonnym (talk) 08:57, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: After a "delete" closure, Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2022 January 1 decided that this TfD should be relisted. The problem is apparently that List of dates for Easter depends on this template. Perhaps substing could be a solution.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sandstein 13:38, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Adding to my original comment. The table itself is a single used template, which would mean that at the most basic argument, there is no need for it to be a template and it can be subst into the article. However, I'm arguing that the whole concept of the table is flawed so this should go straight to deletion. Design wise, the list itself is many times longer than the whole article, making the article extremely bad. Hiding the table is not an option per MOS:DONTHIDE. More importantly than my two previous arguments is that we just don't have list of dates for moveable holidays, as that falls under WP:NOTDIRECTORY. We don't have List of dates for Hanukkah nor is the list at Hanukkah#Dates more than a few entries in the future. In the same manner Ramadan (calendar month) has only a few dates in the future. With all the above issues and MoS violations, I can't see how this template or table is salvageable. Gonnym (talk) 14:09, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Agree that the whole list is unsuitable in any form. However I'm thinking that readers might expect an article called List of dates for Easter to actually have some dates in it. I'd be happy to subst say 20 years there, 2012-2032 say. Perhaps the article ought to go, but that's not the discussion here. Nigej (talk) 14:33, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Some dates are valid, not 20. Look no further than the Hebrew and Isalmic holidays which all work similar to moveable holidays. Hanukkah has 8 years - 3 in the past and 5 in the future. There really is no need for anymore. Any person that wants to know when Easter will be in 2222 or was at 1654 can just google it ("When was Easter yyyy" returns the first result). Gonnym (talk) 15:04, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep in a sensible version (I know hardly anything about templates and !voted "relist" at the DRV). The version until 21 November 2021 produced a somewhat lengthy table[1] producing a List of dates for Easter article looking like this. Then the template was edited to make the table absurdly long.[2] and after that it was sent to TFD and deleted. Hence, ludicrously, List of dates for Easter no longer had a list of dates for Easter. At least the template should be restored to its earlier version or parameters included to control the length. Substing would only be effective in the short term because it would not adapt to the years passing. Also, the deletion of this template led to the automatic deletion of {{Dates for Easter/row}}[3] so the means of calculation was also lost. Thincat (talk) 16:36, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It's true that the current system did automatically add the dates for 2042 when the year clicked round a couple of weeks ago, and will continue to add new years each January 1st. I suppose the question is whether all this complicated stuff is really worth the effort. Nigej (talk) 18:29, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Subst and delete In the end this is nothing more than a single-use Wikitable; such things do not need a template. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:08, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm impeded by my ignorance of templates. This template calls {{Dates for Easter/row}} in a loop and previously this subtemplate was speedy deleted as a subtemplate of the deleted template. Do these sort of matters get automatically sorted out by whoever does any deletion? BTW this wasn't single use (but perhaps it should have been). Thincat (talk) 13:26, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep in a sensible version per Thincat. Stifle (talk) 11:44, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The reason this is a template is that it can automatically be updated to show dates for 10 or 20 or whatever years into the future and it can be used in different articles limited to the timespan relevant. The template currently has a {{{from}}} parameter for specifying the start year, defaulting to 1583, i.e. the year the Gregorian reforms took effect. For the end year, one can either supply a static year number in the {{{to}}} parameter or a number of years in the {{{advance}}} parameter, which currently defaults to 20. Whether or not there is merit in having the article List of dates for Easter or what exactly it should encompass, is not really the topic of this discussion. — Christoph Päper 08:39, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    No one is arguing for or against the article, and that Straw man argument needs to stop. The argument is weather a table that is clearly a WP:NOTDIRECTORY violation should be kept. Having a few years in the future or past, which other articles do such as Hanukkah#Dates and Ramadan (calendar month) is fine and works much better than this. Gonnym (talk) 13:18, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as essentially a single-use template. We do not need any sort of automatic template for what is trivially identified in external sources, clearly indicated by the articles of similar type referenced by Gonnym. --Izno (talk) 18:35, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template(s) or module(s) below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was Delete after migration. After the migration has been completed, the user who has done so may request deletion by adding {{Db-g6|rationale=Per [[Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2022 January 12#Template:Chemical formula]]}} to the template page. Sandstein 10:29, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Chemistry template that automatically links each element. This is not always desirable, but where it is appropriate (e.g. it is common at the top of articles about specific chemicals) it is redundant to the easier and more widely used {{chem2|CH3CH2OH|auto=1}} → CH3CH2OH, which is smart enough to only link each element once and so follow MOS:DUPLINK. 80 transclusions vs 1400 on {{chem2}}. User:GKFXtalk 20:46, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • COMMENT: Since you mentioned {{chem2}} as this template's natural successor, GKFX (and that seems entirely correct to me, on the face of it), I did a little experiment to see how {{chem2}} handled the {{Chemical formula}} syntax. Sadly, the answer is "it does not, at all". Which is a bummer, as it would've made the decision really easy: Redirect transclusions to {{chem2}} and call it a day.
Unfortunately, since that can't be done, there are 80 transclusions out there that will have to be dealt with if this deletion goes through, no? Any thoughts on how to approach that? FeRDNYC (talk) 01:18, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No transclusions, documentation, incoming links, or categories. Content is just a file. Pages like Sylvia Trent-Adams get along just fine by calling the file directly. – Jonesey95 (talk) 02:40, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This template and all of its sub-templates are only used at 2019 European Parliament election in France (a few are just unused). These tables should be subst into the article and the templates deleted. Gonnym (talk) 01:31, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Subst/Delete 20 single-use "templates", most of which are used at 2019 European Parliament election in France and the others are unused. They're all article content and need to go in the parent article. OK, that makes the parent article very large but that's not the issue here. If it's too large then either it's a bloated article (which is probably the case here) or it needs splitting. Hiding stuff away is not the solution. Nigej (talk) 08:40, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Exactly my thoughts here. Editors create tables then hide them. As MOS:DONTHIDE points out, if you feel the need to hide the content, then maybe the content does not belong there. Gonnym (talk) 10:00, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
