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 rename. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 14:52, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not seeing how this is a helpful template. It does two things. It lists all magic words, but we already have WP:MAGIC for that. It also shows what all magic words evaluate to on a given page, but that does not help anyone with anything. If you need to see what a given magic word evaluates to, you can just use that magic word directly (in preview, of course). Subst both uses and delete.

  • I have this template watchlisted because I sometimes use it. As noted in the documentation, it is more useful on the preview screen (though mostly for the "Page" section and a simple time zone check) than for actually transcluding, so we wouldn't expect to see many uses in live edits.

    Is there a reason previewing a specific magic word would be insufficient for those uses? Legitimate question; if this helps your workflow I am happy to withdraw this nomination. I just think that we should have some benefit before we create the need to maintain a separate list of WP:MAGIC words :D HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:56, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Trying to make sure you've used the right pagename related variable is probably the one I'd have in mind for something like this in the general case, and making sure I'm using any correct spelling of one of the others.
    Ignoring that contrivance since I've never used this template, I think this is probably something that specific users should put in their user space if they find it useful. That way they can also customize it to the things they need (regularly). Another alternative might be to add the current values to Help:Magic words like MediaWiki wiki does (in some of the tables) and then transclude {{Help:Magic words}} in its entirety. Izno (talk) 17:38, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and rename. If I knew about this earlier I certainly would have used it, and it would have saved me a lot of trouble. Rename it to something easily findable ({{Magic words}}?) per WP:TPN and transclude it on Help:Magic words.   ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf)  18:21, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Or keep & rename, but transclude the appropriate contents of Help:Magic words. Either way, to avoid duplication.   ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf)  18:26, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Fair enough; I am changing my !vote to keep and rename to {{magic words}} (as nom). Best, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 06:20, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

inactive project/taskforce, could be moved to a subpage of the taskforce or just deleted. Frietjes (talk) 19:20, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just delete. There really is not added value to have project specific templates like this and only added burden to fix, clean, update them when needed (and there is always a need), instead of just one general notice template. Gonnym (talk) 10:49, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as unused. Also, for a template listing early-modern British women playwright lists, its name is comically too general. jlwoodwa (talk) 17:20, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Stabbing as a terrorist tactic with Template:Mass stabbing.
This page is not sufficiently different in substance to require its own page and should instead be a sub-section within the body of Mass stabbing. Iljhgtn (talk) 01:34, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I did not mean for this to be a template, but rather just to propose a merge of Stabbing as a terrorist tactic into Mass stabbing. I have proprosed AfDs plenty of times, sometimes resulting in a merge, but never proposed it as a merge from the beginning and I wanted to do that here. Iljhgtn (talk) 01:35, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
