- Template:Samata Party/meta/color (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:Samta Party/meta/color (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Propose merging Template:Samata Party/meta/color with Template:Samta Party/meta/color.
The two templates are redundant, and we should use the Samta spelling as that is the spelling used on the article. YttriumShrew (talk) 22:48, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: I think this merge proposal may be in the wrong direction. All of the sources linked from Samta Party, including an Indian government official election results pdf (archived version of reference 11), refer to the party as the "Samata Party", not the "Samta Party". The article should probably be moved to the former name, and "Samta" should be redirected to "Samata" in both cases. – Jonesey95 (talk) 00:43, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Another bit of rearranging of the deck chairs on the Titanic. The entire political party template system is on its way out per Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2021 August 26#Political shortname and color templates, and therefore there is no value to fiddling with it. * Pppery * it has begun... 04:52, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Template:Gethelp (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Untranscluded template with a link to the creator's talk page. Should have been created in user space. Creator has only 18 edits in the last 8 years, and none in the last year, so there is little likelihood of this template being used. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:28, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Untranscluded and abandoned "latest software release" templates, replaced in the relevant article by {{wikidata}}, which appears to be the direction that software articles are moving. No chance of future use; destined to become out of date. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:36, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Unused template, part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Fungi/Fungi Collaboration, now marked as historical. No reasonable chance of future use. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:26, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- (shrugs) weak keep....ideally one day if the project is more active it'd be great to resurrect this. As this is not clogging article space and wikipedia ain't paper, I see no reason to delete.

- Template:Infobox National Hockey League coach (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
- Template:Infobox ice hockey player (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Propose merging Template:Infobox National Hockey League coach with Template:Infobox ice hockey player.
Per previous discussions at WT:HOCKEY, including here and here, it seems generally agreed upon that this infobox is unnecessarily cluttered and redundant, and a more concise solution might be to include optional coaching/management fields into Template:Infobox ice hockey player, similar (but not exactly) like the equivalent templates for NFL, college players and MLB players. Listing here to generate some further discussion towards a workable solution. Connormah (talk) 16:36, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- Merge per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:50, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Unless a coach was a player previous, that makes sense because of the name of the infobox. If the coach was never a player, it seems redundant. If it does get mergedm a slight renaming of the infobox would be beneficial. But that makes the task of switching the name of the infobox to the new name in each player article tedious. It could or maybe would also make switching infoboxes in coach articles tedious. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 04:42, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- I believe there are (possibly) bots and WP:AWB to take care of any cleanup afterwards; there have been no doubt larger or more drastic merges than this one, I believe, and I don't think renaming will have any widespread effect if a redirect remains. Every single current NHL coach and/or GM (I can maybe think of 2 managers off the top of my head who are not) are former players, so not sure that will be an issue either. Connormah (talk) 08:08, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Template:OTRS source (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
This template seems to have been created for a non-existent OTRS process. The idea was that if you were tagging an image as {{OTRS received}}, but didn't know the ticket number, you could use this as a placeholder.
But that is not the correct process - only OTRS volunteers should be tagging images with {{OTRS received}} or another similar template, and they will know the correct ticket number.
So this template is for an incorrect process and thus should be deleted.
(There was a recent TFD where this template was nominated along with two other completely unrelated templates, but did not get any actual consideration on its own.) B (talk) 15:47, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Pppery, WikiCleanerMan, Jonesey95, and Plastikspork: - notifying previous TFD participants. --B (talk) 15:49, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- Kommentar: No opinion, but as I said in the previous discussion, I don't know enough about OTRS to know whether and how it is used. It is mentioned in a very long thread at User talk:Iridescent/Archive 30. Maybe one of the participants there could help us understand whether it is used or not. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:55, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

- Keep - this is still used via substitution at Module:NewDYKnomination to display an error message if someone tries to pass an invalid title to {{NewDYKnomination}}. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 01:47, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Is the template only used in that module? If so, why not directly use {{error|1={{{1}}}}}[[Category:Wikipedia Did you know nominations with errors]] there? Gonnym (talk) 08:15, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: Given the above, I have marked this template with {{transclusionless}} so that it won't appear on unused template reports. This TFD should be closed as Keep. – Jonesey95 (talk) 03:05, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per Mr. Stradivarius. * Pppery * it has begun... 04:52, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Conditional merge and delete. If the template is only called from Module:NewDYKnomination, as it seems to be, then there really is no need for the module to call the template, when the template is a single line which could (and should) be used directly in the module.

- Neither delete !vote above actually gives any argument for deletion other than an IDONTLIKEIT, so I would be justified in closing this as speedy keep per WP:SK#1. Instead I'll actually provide a proper rationale for deletion: this was created as a
test before proposing a process change
, and either the test has failed or the process change never happened since this template has never been used anywhere, either directly or as a substitution. Please provide proper arguments, rather than bare assertions without evidence. * Pppery * it has begun... 04:52, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
