November 16

Template:Samata Party/meta/color

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)[reply]

Template:Gethelp

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)[reply]

Template:Getpar

Untranscluded, no incoming links, no documentation. Appears to be an abandoned experiment. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:26, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/Microsoft Outlook and more locally-replaced software templates

Unused; replaced in relevant article with lower-maintenance local data. Relevant articles are GNU Bazaar, Hugin (software), Microsoft Outlook, Media Composer, Mozart the music processor, Netscape Navigator 9, Openfiler, Quiet Internet Pager, UltimateDefrag, HexChat, YAML (framework). – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:23, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/Xoops

Unused; superseded by {{Ikiwiki version}}, {{TWiki version}}, {{XOOPS version}}. I don't think a non-standard version of this template is a better idea, but they work, so these unused templates can at least be deleted or redirected. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:22, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2021 T20 World Cup Teams

Un-used template. Couldn't see an obvious category at WP:CSD, so brought it here. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 18:21, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/Rational Team Concert

Unused; target article has been merged into Rational Software, where there is no longer software release data. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:16, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/Tar

Untranscluded; vague content was blanked after being replaced with local text at tar (computing). No potential for future use, since there is no specific version numbering to track. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:51, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/JACK Audio Connection Kit

Untranscluded, blanked after being replaced by {{multiple releases}} within JACK Audio Connection Kit. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:48, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/Google Chrome for Android

Untranscluded template that has been blanked following the merge of Google Chrome for Android into Google Chrome. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:46, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/Archive Utility

Unused, links to small section of List of macOS components, where infoboxes that would use this template are not used. No chance of this template being used in an article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:40, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/Apache OpenOffice Writer

Untranscluded, links to the wrong article. Apache OpenOffice, the most relevant article, does not have specific software release information for each component. No chance of future use. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:39, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:The Andy Griffith Show

With the exception of 2 episode articles, everything in this template is also in {{Mayberry}}. It is no longer in use, and had only been on about half the articles listed in the template to begin with; whereas nearly all of the articles already used the Mayberry template. ButlerBlog (talk) 17:39, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/AOL Instant Messenger

Unused; software is for a service that has been discontinued, so there is no longer a current stable version. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:37, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Latest stable software release/ALZip and more wikidata-replaced software templates

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)[reply]

Template:Foreigncopyrighttop

Untranscluded. Appears to be an abandoned experiment from 2006. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:28, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Fungi Collaboration

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)[reply]

Template:PermissionOTRS/Embedded

Unused subpage orphaned after page move. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:24, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox National Hockey League coach

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)[reply]

  • Merge per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:50, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • 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)[reply]
  • 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)[reply]

Template:OTRS source

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)[reply]

Template:DYK error

Not used since creation. Did Q28 make a mess today? 09:37, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Autodate

Apparently, this template has been abandoned. Did Q28 make a mess today? 09:28, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:AfD Log

It should be scrapped. Did Q28 make a mess today? 08:56, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:48, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • 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)[reply]

Template:Clarify radiocarbon calibration in section

Overly specific clarification that doesn't seem like it will ever come into use. Just use {{clarify}} Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 05:55, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Cite ccgll

Unused citation template for a single website Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:53, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Chocolate Factory track listing

Unused Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:53, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox American State Political Party

Propose merging Template:Infobox American State Political Party with Template:Infobox political party.
WP:TFD#REASONS #2, WP:INFOCOL. Totally redundant with Template:Infobox political party. ― Tartan357 Talk 03:31, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Chilean Special Forces

Unused, almost all redlink Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:15, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Chairmen of the United Development Party

Unused, doesn't seem a notable enough position to navigate by Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:15, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Chaos and Creation in the Backyard tracks

Unused tracklist template Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 02:59, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
