The result of the discussion was Delete and replace with {{Infobox political party}}. ~ RobTalk 20:30, 19 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The template has been subject to some vandalism recently. The template is just a wrapper for {{Infobox political party}}. Currently, there are only 31 transclusions. Convert the 31 articles to use {{Infobox political party}} and delete this one. Bgwhite (talk) 20:11, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unused and redundant to Portal:Horror fiction/Things you can do, Wikipedia:WikiProject Horror/to do, and {{WPAVIATION Announcements/Airports}}. Sawol (talk) 14:17, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, because indeed they look redundant. I declined a T3 speedy deletion for the Horror tasks page because T3 is just for duplications of templates (not for duplicates of portal pages), which this wasn't. Best just to allow that page, and the others, to get reviewed by interested people in case someone knows of a good reason before deletion. Nyttend (talk) 17:51, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Infobox Victorian rail line with Template:Infobox rail line.
Redundant to {{Infobox rail line}}, with the exception of |yearcommenced= and |yearcompleted=, which should either be available universally, or not at all. Alakzi (talk) 12:44, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Not sure why it's never been used before, as it's useful. I've tidied it up a bit and added it to the relevant articles. Schwede66 18:52, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Khalid Sadeq's argument is invalid as the other template has been deleted and in any case "other stuff exists" does not trump the navbox guidelines. (non-admin closure) BethNaught (talk) 10:52, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not a useful aid to navigation. Gives the impression that there are a number of related articles when in fact there are not. The history and Qadsia Records links go directly to an article on general Kuwaiti football club records, the Seasons link goes directly to the Kuwaiti Premier League article, whilst the rivalry links go only to the clubs in question, none of which actually discuss any rivalry. This is inherently unhelpful and confusing for any reader. Fenix down (talk) 10:10, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - per nom, does not aid navigation and should be deleted. JMHamo (talk) 15:27, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Don't Delete - you have left Qadsia SC's template which is nearly exactly the same why delete this and leave that I'm sorry but that's not fair and if it's not fully navigated ill try to make it better. Khalid Sadeq

The result of the discussion was Relisted at Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2015_September_28#Template:Rotten Tomatoes score/0102558. ~ RobTalk 04:16, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This template is just a complex replacement for article text. We've had these kinds of templates years ago. There's a number of these templates but I'm starting with this one. It's being used at Nothing_but_Trouble_(1991_film)#Reception with the text from here hidden to fill out the values that it has "9"% approval rating based "11" with an average of "2/10" and then a citation (with an error in it). To fix the citation, someone would need to find this thing and parse it like I did here (which still didn't fix it I think). Ricky81682 (talk) 07:30, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This edit fixed the date problem. These sub-pages of Template:Rotten Tomatoes score are produced by Theo's Little Bot, task #22. Wbm1058 (talk) 13:55, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Just because it was approved doesn't mean it's in line with policy. Generally, "Templates should not normally be used to store article text. Such content belongs in the article pages themselves." is a pretty clear guideline. While it's useful to have common text, it doesn't mean that it should be stored in this format, namely subpages that store the text. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 07:25, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned cite pmid template. A search for the string "10099806" tells me that this is not a substitution of the template somewhere but a citation that isn't in use at all. Ricky81682 (talk) 06:15, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not many entries are linked in the template and the most linked are to sub-sections of some film article or to the biography of the artist himself. Only direct links are in the filmography section. But through long consensus we do not make templates of filmographies of actors. Hence suggesting deletion of template. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 05:47, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I suggest delete the filmography section but keep the rest. FudgeFury(talk|sign|contribs) 17:27, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Rest are just redirects to those films which you are suggesting to delete. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 04:09, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
