February 20

[edit]

Template:Assumed license

[edit]

As of last week, we are officially complete! All uploads without an explicit copyright license have been either claimed or deleted. Any new uploads fall after the cutoff date, so we are all set to delete this template. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 05:47, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Are you SURE that no uploads prior to the cut-off date remain? If the template has completed it's function than I have no objections to redundant templates being archived. If deleted however, I would appreciate a "file copy" being retained in my userspace. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 09:32, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
My understanding was that this was systemically added to any file which did not have an appropriate license. If this is a "add it when you find a problem" tag, then I would withdraw this nomination and request a bot add it everywhere to allow the cleanup to continue.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Primefac (talk) 22:58, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Shooting down this template straight after it is supposed to have become superfluous is quite risky. Murphy's law and so. The Banner talk 02:02, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2024 Chhattisgarh Cricket Premier League Points table

unused, unclear if there is a parent article. Frietjes (talk) 20:26, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2021 NBL–Philippines season standings

[edit]

unused after being merged with the parent article with attribution. Frietjes (talk) 20:25, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2020 Philippines Football League table

[edit]

this was forked from the main article and subsequently merged back, so no longer needed as a separate template. Frietjes (talk) 20:24, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Rugby League Four Nations Ladders

[edit]

these have all been merged with the parent articles with attribution. Frietjes (talk) 20:21, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

No transclusions. This tiny navigation helper is no longer needed after the linked templates were sensibly merged into {{WritersGuildofAmericaAnthologyAnyLength}}. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:02, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Use Bangladeshi English

[edit]
  1. This template claims that it is for "articles which have Bangladeshi English spelling", but the Bangladeshi English article says that "Bangladeshi English is an English accent" and makes no claims about any spelling differences between Bangladeshi English and English as spoken or written in other countries.
  2. Templates providing editing guidance should not make unsupported claims or recommendations.
  3. Even if there are differences in vocabulary or word usage in Bangladeshi English, we should not use these local terms, phrases, or constructions unannotated in English Wikipedia articles, per the MOS guideline about using vocabulary common to all varieties of English, so the template provides guidance that is contrary to MOS. As such, this template is not useful or usable on the English Wikipedia (this is WP:TFD#REASONS, number 3). – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:17, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Delete: I am unable to find any Bangladeshi English dictionaries or style guides. The closest I can find is Pocket Oxford English Dictionary South Asia Edition ISBN 9780198700982. Perhaps we should create a new template for South Asian English? ―Howard • 🌽33 20:08, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment: The same would likely apply to EngVar templates such as (I'm guessing) Template:Use Hong Kong English or Template:Use Antiguan and Barbudan English. Thus, I will suggest that, if such templates are deleted, they should be replaced with a new Template:Use Commonwealth English. It would make sense to me if we delete the templates for all English variants that do not have dictionaries or style guides. — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 22:54, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Neoauthoritarianism in China

[edit]

The Neoauthoritarianism in China template should be deleted because it duplicates the Conservatism in China template, which already covers PRC conservatism since third opinion confirmed that "China" refers to the PRC. Guotaian (talk) 13:38, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Strong opposition and strong KEEP - A template to unite the 'pro-Beijing' political forces of Mainland China (PRC), Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan (ROC) is essential, and the "Neoauthoritarianism in China" template is currently in charge. ProKMT (talk) 07:45, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The Neoauthoritarianism in China template is largely similar to the Conservatism in China template, which covers largely the same topics as the earlier template. HarukaAmaranth 08:31, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If Guotaian promises never to remove non-Beijing camp conservatives (pro-ROC camp and conservative localists) from the "Template:Conservatism in Hong Kong", he may not oppose deletion. ProKMT (talk) 10:20, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

As presenters on a news channel, this fails WP:PERFNAV. --woodensuperman 12:55, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Quinn Martin shows

[edit]

Per WP:FILMNAV, only shows where he was the primary creator should be included. I have trimmed the ones where he was executive producer, which leaves two entries. WP:NENAN --woodensuperman 09:57, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2023 Joe McDonagh Cup Team of the Year

[edit]

No article on the team, seems to be another "fantasy" team. --woodensuperman 09:04, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP: Far from being a "fantasy" team as you call it, this is actually the official team of the year as announced by the Gaelic Athletic Association (see link here to the official GAA website: Carlow to the fore in Joe McDonagh Team of the Year). While not everything needs a navbox, not every navbox needs an article. Reference to the Team of the Year could be added to the existing 2023 Joe McDonagh Cup page if you think that would help? --CorkMan talk 23:54, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You are wrong. Every navigation template needs an article to show where this is about. And the "team of the year" of a second tier tournament? The notability of that team is highly questionable. The Banner talk 01:58, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Mount Leinster Rangers Hurling Team 2014

[edit]

Mostly redlinks, and not a winning team, so not navbox-worthy. We can't have navboxes for every team. --woodensuperman 09:02, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Ireland composite rules shinty team 2008

[edit]

No article about this team. No mention of the team in Composite rules shinty–hurling The Banner talk 00:14, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. We can't have navboxes for every permutation of a team.
