This almost looks like a test page, but given how old this (and that the author is still active) is I'm going to bring it here. Unused, not even in userspace. Is there any point in marking this historical as opposed to deleting it? – Train2104 (t • c) 19:37, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

An...interesting user warning template that uses example Google Translate output to demonstrate how bad it is to use machine translation. But this is written for a user translating English -> Welsh, so I'm not sure what purpose this has on English Wikipedia. – Train2104 (t • c) 19:30, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A boilerplate sentence for stating suburban station ridership. We have several different change arrow templates, there's no need to do it this way. Unused. – Train2104 (t • c) 19:24, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - it's a pretty useless template as most of the links are redirects, and it only has two articles that are actually directly relevant (the eponymous article and "Love is the Name"). If she does more independent work in the future, I think it could make sense to recreate the template, but at this moment, it's just not necessary or useful. -- Irn (talk) 15:13, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not enough content for an infoox. The link to FBI Academy isn't related to the series, and the characters link is a redirect. -- AlexTW 22:16, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete, and replace with simple "see also" links. Frietjes (talk) 14:16, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. Probably just about enough links to be useful. --Rob Sinden (talk) 07:49, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Robsinden: How so? The three links in the first row are all available on the LoE article, and Alex Parrish is available on the main article. There's no need for this template, it gives nothing extra. -- AlexTW 07:54, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NENAN suggests a "rule of five". This meets that. And please stop removing the template from the included articles until the outcome of this TFD is known. --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:17, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Robsinden: The very title of WP:NENAN describes this case perfectly: Not everything needs a navbox. That is an essay, not a guideline or policy, and it still fails this "rule of five": are there presently at least five articles (not counting the primary article) on which your navbox will be used? No, there is not. Season 1, Season 2, Episodes, Parrish. If not, then you probably don't need a navbox just yet. Nor does this cover the absolute minimum number of links that this navbox provide - this template does not provide anything that the articles do not. Concerning your recent reverts to add the template, just as we revert unnecessary additions to prose, tables, infoboxes, etc., this applies to templates as well. It's unnecessary to include in the article - templates and navboxes don't just get an instant right to addition. The result of this TfD does not affect the exclusion of the navbox. As with all policy and style suggestions, common sense and consensus should prevail. -- AlexTW 08:23, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hence my "weak keep". And no, whilst the template exists, it should be transcluded on the articles in order to perform its usual function (and also to demonstrate to !voters here how it is employed). --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:26, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You addressed none of the points that I just raised. It would be so kind of you if you did so. And again, it has no function, as it does nothing more than the articles do right now. Just as we would revert a cast table instead of a prose listing, as it's unnecessary, we should do the same. -- AlexTW 08:29, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Pinging you again, Robsinden. -- AlexTW 05:17, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have much to add. There are navboxes with less entries out there. I've !voted for a weak keep. If it stays, it stays, if it goes, it goes, but while it still exists, it remains transcluded on the included pages so that it can perform its function. --Rob Sinden (talk) 07:58, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
What guideline or policy can you link that states that if the navbox exists, it must be included? It's not doing any particular job, given that the currently existing articles are already doing said job. -- AlexTW 08:21, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This is simply how a navbox works. You're making too big a deal out of this. Just wait for the outcome of the TFD, it will probably get deleted anyway... --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:33, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Then if it's going to be deleted, then it probably isn't required in the articles. -- AlexTW 08:36, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
At the moment, I don't think you can reach the episode or season articles from Alex Parrish without the navbox. --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:38, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
 Fixed -- AlexTW 09:01, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's still easier to find those articles from the navbox than scouring the text. My weak keep remains. --Rob Sinden (talk) 09:07, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
