Timeline in the form of a sidebar. Extensive text which makes it more like unreferenced article content than a navigational aid. We have an article Timeline of Jainism which is a much better place for this sort of content. Nigej (talk) 19:14, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. With the creation of Template:Rugby squad role and conversion to using it, there is little more to this than a procedural motion to make sure there are no leftover issues. Seeing none, I am going to delete all templates of the /role/X variety as unused per the original nomination. Primefac (talk) 08:16, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unused as the calls to these sub-templates of Template:Rugby squad player were removed from the template on the 16th and their content is now used directly in it. Gonnym (talk) 17:38, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The template was not used and there was no actual effort. Q28 (talk) 17:12, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the complete list of subpages for the AVIATION creator wizard:

Pages with the prefix 'WPAVIATION creator' in the 'Template' and 'Template talk' namespaces:

Should we not be assessing the whole lot, establishing more clearly which do or do not serve any useful purpose, and then deleting all the unused ones? There is a subpage of the one currently under discussion, and a set with .0 suffixes too. It seems inefficient to pick them out one at a time. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 16:50, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This discussion has been notified at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation#Template:WPAVIATION creator, as most of the sub-template talk pages ask that discussions be pointed there. Also notified at Template talk:WPAVIATION creator and Template talk:WPAVIATION creator/Aircraft 2 — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 11:44, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Suggestion. What if we disable the suspect templates by moving them (say to draft space)? Then, people can try out the remainder and if they break, we can restore the critical one/s. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 13:13, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No transclusions. This is an unfinished sidebar experiment; I had to remove a bunch of disastrous styling just to be able to see the template's content. It has a bunch of links to categories and templates interspersed with links to articles, some of which are not relevant. The linked articles have appropriate navboxes. I don't think there is a way forward for this sidebar. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:08, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No transclusions, and inadequate documentation to explain the purpose of this template and how to use it. It appears to have been developed as an experiment to track usage or potential usage of wikidata information in templates, but it hasn't been deployed anywhere. If the creator wants to keep it around, I recommend userfying it, or transcluding it somewhere in order to show how it works. If it is kept, it should be documented better. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:01, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In 2018 the district level of government was abolished, see: Canton of Neuchâtel#Districts. As a result, a new template {{Municipalities of the canton of Neuchâtel}} was created and is used instead. The 6 listed here are now unused and should be deleted. The articles for the former districts remain and a navbox {{Districts of the canton of Neuchâtel}} to jump between them..

This is a follow-up to a discussion at WT:TENNIS#"Top ten" lists and lists all the "top ten" navboxes for male doubles. There seemed to be general consensus there, that because they are poorly maintained they should be deleted. Personally I'm of the view that they have little encyclopedic value. I've selected the doubles list because they seem to me to be of less interest generally than the singles. Nigej (talk) 08:29, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - these are barely maintained and articles are better served by having a link in the external links section to the ATP or WTA site that updates daily. This includes not just doubles but all singles players as well. Fyunck(click) (talk) 20:33, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all and delete all men and women's singles templates as well. These are largely unmaintained, and waste editor time mirroring info that can be found in greater detail in two clicks on the ATP/WTA websites. Sod25 (talk) 07:47, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all as unnecessary, the 10th best player in most countries is barely notable. And these aren't useful navigations between people. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:28, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - useful to find the active players of a country when somebody reads one of them. There are no other way to find the players who are still active (categories collects all of teh players of one nation, include active and non active.) OPES-FRM (talk) 18:23, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't really understand the point. These templates are for the current top 10 in the rankings, they don't provide a list of the active players from that country. Also note that these are WP:NAVBOXes "a grouping of links used in multiple related articles to facilitate navigation between those articles in Wikipedia." Navboxes are not used to provide lists of anything, they're for navigation. Nigej (talk) 08:43, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, you don't understand, I do. The Top 10 players are all active, and most nations have pretty much all of them. I also often look for the next one on a player's article, I think many readers do the same. It is interesting to know the compatriots. In addition, the navbox also shows how good the person you are reading within his/her nation is. You can't read this information anywhere else on Wikipedia, just from here. And that is an important fact. It is true that their update is stuttering, but this is also the case for a lot of articles, this is not the specialty of these navboxes. OPES-FRM (talk) 09:31, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
However see WP:NOTNEWS, we're not a news site. We're primarily an encyclopedia. Also this information is nearly always unreferenced. And worth reading WP:INTERESTING. The real question is whether this content adds to the value of Wikipedia as an encyclopedia and the answer is, in my view, no, since it is soon deleted. We can keep a small amount of such information, but keeping 160 top-10s constantly up-to-date is really a waste of people's effort here. Nigej (talk) 11:42, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
