- Template:Big Matches (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Most of the links to matches are actually just links back to the main article Big Match. All of the schools blue links are unnecessary for this template, as can be incorporated into a different template like "Schools in Sri Lanka". Not an encyclopedic and useful template for this cricket event. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:50, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose removing the edition section keeping other parts. -- IDB.S (talk) 06:04, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
No valid blue links (other than to the event article itself), and so template not needed. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:26, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Champions League Twenty20 winning captains (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unnecessary template linking players based on the result of one competition- there were tonnes of T20 competitions each of these years, so linking in a template for this specific event is arbitrary and unnecessary. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:15, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Disagree. This was a major tournament assosciated with IPL. Having this does no harm. Pharaoh496 (talk) 09:11, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Contrary to the name, this is actually a specific season template for 2014 Champions League Twenty20- we don't need templates for every team in a specific season. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:12, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Politburo of the Communist Party of Cuba ordinal category (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unused category template. Gonnym (talk) 15:42, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:POTD selection (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unused and can't seem to find usages from an insource search. Gonnym (talk) 15:33, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Zh-all (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
This used to be a page that listed all the Zh language templates. Those have all been converted years ago and this page has lost its purpose. The two templates listed aren't "Zh-" templates so don't fit disambiguation. Gonnym (talk) 15:13, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
No transclusions. Created in 2017. This template may have been substed four times, but it does not appear to be in use anymore. It appears that other templates or processes have superseded it. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:08, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment you raise a good point, Jonesey95. This was a template that I created back in the day that evidently didn't really take off and I'm not around AfC that much anymore. However, I do find it personally sort of helpful to exist. If it doesn't remain in the template namespace (and others don't think it useful), let's userfy it. --TheSandDoctor Talk 03:30, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:New Anonblock (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
No transclusions. Proposed in early 2024, but the proposal did not gain any support. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:07, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
No transclusions or incoming links. Created in 2018. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:01, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
Unused sub-template. "CORE" is not found in the list at Template:Find sources multi#Link codes. Gonnym (talk) 14:22, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
Unused banner for a task force that hasn't been active in years and marked as historical. Gonnym (talk) 14:02, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
Unused and with no person links. If the creator hasn't abandoned these and still wants to work on them, they should move to draft or user space. Gonnym (talk) 13:59, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Keep as the creator I admittedly had forgotten to complete and add these to the correct pages but this is something I can do within the next couple hours after I finish eating. Brandon Downes (talk) 18:44, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- If these are completed and added, ping me and I'll withdraw my nomination. Gonnym (talk) 20:45, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Gonnym Hi, all of them have been filled and added to the relevant pages now. Brandon Downes (talk) 23:44, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nice, good work. I withdraw my nomination. Gonnym (talk) 10:12, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Unused sub template. Couldn't find this used with an insource search. Gonnym (talk) 13:53, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
Unused sub template. Couldn't find this used with an insource search. Might have been connected to Template:Connected contributor/refactored. Gonnym (talk) 13:49, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as creator. Gonnym is correct: this was a subtemplate of that. DMacks (talk) 14:44, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Collegesailingteam/articlelist (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:Collegesailingteam/flaglist (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unused sub-template that was never used. We don't need to keep around every piece of code someone ever wrote. Gonnym (talk) 13:46, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:College wrestling dual/Start (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:College wrestling dual/Entry (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:College wrestling dual/End (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unused college wrestling table templates. Gonnym (talk) 13:44, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Talkfact (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:Fake citation needed (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Propose merging Template:Talkfact with Template:Fake citation needed.
These templates are duplicates. {{talkfact}} just has |nice=yes to change the wording, and {{fake citation needed}} has namespace detection. The merge target follows WP:TPN's "standard English spelling, spacing, and capitalization", and the source can be a shortcut. 174.94.28.189 (talk) 06:36, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Move
{{Talkfact}}to{{Talk fact}}which is where it should have been. The two templates display similarly but have different functions. I, for example, want to be able to find all the documentation, by using "what links here" on{{Fake citation needed}}. All the best: Rich Farmbrough 19:19, 4 November 2024 (UTC).- "What links here" indents redirects so that function would remain after any merger. Furthermore, at Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Fake_citation_needed&limit=500, the majority of transclusions are outside templatespace (documentation) and apparently inside discussions. 174.94.28.189 (talk) 00:35, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect both templates to {{Citation needed}}, which already only categorizes inside mainspace. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:04, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Template:ME-lang (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unused Middle-earth related lang template. Some of the languages are supported by {{lang}} (those with valid ISO), others if needed, can be added to the private-use range. Gonnym (talk) 10:42, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
