The result of the discussion was move to User:L293D/no citation needed, but feel free to move elsewhere or send to WP:MFD. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 22:19, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
This template has little utility; the use of the template in a mainspace article itself would be redundant and unneeded. It only has two transclusions, one is in a user talk page, and another some article talk page. Both times it is used jokingly. This template should either be userified or deleted. — MATRIX!

- Delete this is a permanent maintenance notice, which should not exist, as maintenance notices should be temporary. It should also be invisible to readers, if it doesn't need a reference. Only editors would need to see such a thing. There doesn't seem to be a need for such a thing outside of articlespace, and should not be used in articlespace, so cannot be used. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 04:51, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

- Weak keep; this is a properly labeled humor template and could be documented as such. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:47, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- Keep: Perfectly normal humor template. I've added an error if this is transcluded in mainspace, removed a serious category, and added a proper {{humor}} template. Clyde [trout needed] 00:36, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
- Still think this should be kept, but moving is a fine comprimise. Clyde [trout needed] 19:35, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. Humor editors should stop polluting every namespace. There are many other social networks and blogs for that. Gonnym (talk) 20:41, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. We give latitude to editors to make humorous templates, so long as it is done responsibly. With the edits ClydeFranklin made, sufficient protections against disruption are now in place. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:14, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

- Suggest moving to userspace of creator if this bothers people — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:48, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
- If we're moving it that way, there's WP:Department of Fun, so that moves to WP:Department of Fun/Template/No citation needed or somesuch. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 13:21, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per Pppery and the low usage ({{fbdb}} is perhaps a case study). I have no issue with userfying or moving it under the dept of fun, or other appropriate humorous home. Izno (talk) 23:54, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

- Template:WikiProject Editor Retention/Editor of the Week/Project main page/Archive 18 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
No transclusions. No comparable pages in template space, as far as I can tell. This page appears to be redundant to Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/Editor of the Week/Hall of Fame/2013-12-22 and was possibly created in error. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:49, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Unused wikiProject custom class masks
[edit]- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more templates or modules. 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. ✗plicit 07:06, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
Most of these subtemplates are now unused. Since harmonising quality scales across WikiProjects, 99% are using the standard scale and are no longer using a custom scale. The only exceptions are listed belowabove. Sorry I am not able to individually tag this number of pages, but they are technical deletions and will not affect the behaviour of the template. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:43, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
- @MSGJ for the ones that are still in use, how do we orphan them? We can't delete templates that are still transcluded. Or did you mean that the above list of transcluded templates should be kept? Gonnym (talk) 09:26, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
- Can you give me an example, because none of them (except listed exceptions) should be transcluded now. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:29, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
- I re-read the nomination and now understand that the list you linked above are the templates not part of the nomination. So disregard my question. Gonnym (talk) 09:32, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. This is a technical and noncontroversial aspect of cleaning up the wikiproject banner templating system (which I've been following closely), and all seems to be going well. We don't need to keep these old pages that have been obsoleted. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 11:20, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

- Question: @MSGJ: I found your banner on Template:WikiProject Scientology/class but I still use the project's assessment table. I cannot tell from your description whether this will affect my project or not because I don't understand the technical aspects underlying your deletion suggestion/request/discussion. Can you check the SCN project's assessment table and tell me if your change would affect it or not? ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 20:27, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
