Proposed deletion |
On this page, the deletion or merging of templates and modules, except as noted below, is discussed. To propose the renaming of a template or templates, use Wikipedia:Requested moves.
How to use this page
What not to propose for discussion here
The majority of deletion and merger proposals concerning pages in the template namespace and module namespace should be listed on this page. However, there are a few exceptions:
- Stub templates
- Stub templates and categories should be listed at Categories for discussion, as these templates are merely containers for their categories, unless the stub template does not come with a category and is being nominated by itself.
- Userboxes
- Userboxes should be listed at Miscellany for deletion, regardless of the namespace in which they reside.
- Speedy deletion candidates
- If the template clearly satisfies a criterion for speedy deletion, tag it with a speedy deletion template. For example, if you wrote the template and request its deletion, tag it with {{Db-author}}.
- Policy or guideline templates
- Templates that are associated with particular Wikipedia policies or guidelines, such as the speedy deletion templates, cannot be listed at TfD separately. They should be discussed on the talk page of the relevant guideline.
- Template redirects
- List at Redirects for discussion.
Reasons to delete a template
- The template violates some part of the template namespace guidelines, and can't be altered to be in compliance.
- The template is redundant to a better-designed template.
- The template is not used, either directly or by template substitution (the latter cannot be concluded from the absence of backlinks), and has no likelihood of being used.
- The template violates a policy such as Neutral point of view or Civility and it can't be fixed through normal editing.
Templates should not be nominated if the issue can be fixed by normal editing. Instead, you should edit the template to fix its problems. If the template is complex and you don't know how to fix it, WikiProject Templates may be able to help.
Templates for which none of these apply may be deleted by consensus here. If a template is being misused, consider clarifying its documentation to indicate the correct use, or informing those that misuse it, rather than nominating it for deletion. Initiate a discussion on the template talk page if the correct use itself is under debate.
Listing a template
To list a template for deletion or merging, follow this three-step process. The use of Twinkle (explained below) is strongly recommended, as it automates and simplifies these steps. Note that the "Template:" prefix should not be included anywhere when carrying out these steps (unless otherwise specified).
Step | Instructions |
---|---|
I: Tag the template. | Add one of the following codes to the top of the template page:
Note:
Multiple templates: If you are nominating multiple related templates, choose a meaningful title for the discussion (like "American films by decade templates"). Tag every template with Related categories: If including template-populated tracking categories in the TfD nomination, add TemplateStyles pages: The above templates will not work on TemplateStyles pages. Instead, add a CSS comment to the top of the page:
|
II: List the template at TfD. | Follow to edit today's TfD log.
Add this text to the top of the list:
If the template has had previous TfDs, you can add Use an edit summary such as Multiple templates: If this is a deletion proposal involving multiple templates, use the following: {{subst:Tfd2|template name 1|template name 2 ...|title=meaningful discussion title|text=Why you think the templates should be deleted. ~~~~}} You can add up to 50 template names (separated by vertical bar characters If this is a merger proposal involving more than two templates, use the following: {{subst:Tfm2|template name 1|template name 2 ...|with=main template (optional)|title=meaningful discussion title|text=Why you think the templates should be merged. ~~~~}} You can add up to 50 template names (separated by vertical bar characters Related categories: If this is a deletion proposal involving a template and a category populated solely by templates, add this code after the {{subst:Catfd2|category name}} |
III: Notify users. | Please notify the creator of the template nominated (as well as the creator of the target template, if proposing a merger). It is helpful to also notify the main contributors of the template that you are nominating. To find them, look in the page history or talk page of the template. Then, add one of the following:
to the talk pages of the template creator (and the creator of the other template for a merger) and the talk pages of the main contributors. It is also helpful to make any interested WikiProjects aware of the discussion. To do that, make sure the template's talk page is tagged with the banners of any relevant WikiProjects; please consider notifying any of them that do not use Article alerts. Multiple templates: There is no template for notifying an editor about a multiple-template nomination: please write a personal message in these cases. |
Consider adding any templates you nominate for TfD to your watchlist. This will help ensure that the TfD tag is not removed.
After nominating: Notify interested projects and editors
While it is sufficient to list a template for discussion at TfD (see above), nominators and others sometimes want to attract more attention from and participation by informed editors. All such efforts must comply with Wikipedia's guideline against biased canvassing.
To encourage participation by less experienced editors, please avoid Wikipedia-specific abbreviations in the messages you leave about the discussion, link to any relevant policies or guidelines, and link to the TfD discussion page itself. If you are recommending that a template be speedily deleted, please give the criterion that it meets.
WikiProjects are groups of editors that are interested in a particular subject or type of editing. If the article is within the scope of one or more WikiProjects, they may welcome a brief, neutral note on their project's talk page(s) about the TfD. You can use {{Tfdnotice}}
for this.
Tagging the nominated template's talk page with a relevant Wikiproject's banner will result in the template being listed in that project's Article Alerts automatically, if they subscribe to the system. For instance, tagging a template with {{WikiProject Physics}} will list the discussion in Wikipedia:WikiProject Physics/Article alerts.
Notifying substantial contributors to the template
While not required, it is generally considered courteous to notify the good-faith creator and any main contributors of the template and its talkpage that you are nominating for discussion. To find the creator and main contributors, look in the page history or talk page.
At this point, you've done all you need to do as nominator. Sometime after seven days have passed, someone else will either close the discussion or, where needed, "relist" it for another seven days of discussion. (That "someone" may not be you, the nominator.)
Once you have submitted a template here, no further action is necessary on your part. If the nomination is successful it will be added to the Holding Cell until the change is implemented. There is no requirement for nominators to be part of the implementation process, but they are allowed to if they so wish.
Also, consider adding any templates you nominate to your watchlist. This will help ensure that your nomination tag is not mistakenly or deliberately removed.
Twinkle
Twinkle is a convenient tool that can perform many of the posting and notification functions automatically, with fewer errors and missed steps than manual editing. Twinkle does not notify WikiProjects, although many of them have automatic alerts. It is helpful to notify any interested WikiProjects that don't receive alerts, but this has to be done manually.
Discussion
Anyone can join the discussion, but please understand the deletion policy and explain your reasoning.
People will sometimes also recommend subst or subst and delete and similar. This means the template text should be "merged" into the articles that use it. Depending on the content, the template page may then be deleted; if preserving the edit history for attribution is desirable, it may be history-merged with the target article or moved to mainspace and redirected.
Templates are rarely orphaned—that is, removed from pages that transclude them—before the discussion is closed. A list of open discussions eligible for closure can be found at Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Old unclosed discussions.
Closing discussion
Administrators should read the closing instructions before closing a nomination. Note that WP:XFDCloser semi-automates this process and ensures all of the appropriate steps are taken.

No transclusions. I have adjusted the parent template to take a parameter, which does the same thing that this set of subpages does, so they are no longer needed. Note: I nominated these before I had seen the nomination of the parent template below. If the parent template is kept, these subpages can still be deleted. – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:41, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - I agree with deleting the subpages as seen at the nominations above. However, upon looking closer at Template:Emoji, you will find it has more emojis but is not very user friendly -- For instance, to display a basic smile () you must use the following: {{emoji|263A}}
- The goal of WEmoji is to provide Wikipedians with an easy-to-use, user-friendly system which has codes that are easy to memorize. If you use the other system, you'd need to constantly check the codes depending on the emoji. The code for a sunglasses emoji looks like this on Emoji: {{emoji|1F60E}}. The code for sunglasses on WEmoji looks like this: {{WEmoji|cool}}. In summary, the two templates are different -- Emoji is better supported, but not as refined. WEmoji is not as well supported, but easier to use. Urban Versis 32KB ⚡ (talk | contribs) 23:05, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

Template:Transclusion

The template alleges it is utilized to avoid disruption and unnecessary server load while editing heavy articles. The unnecessary server load claim is unsubstantiated, and what it calls avoiding disruption really is an excuse to store article text in single-use templates to make it more difficult to edit the content, in direct contravention of WP:TG, and in a clear sign of WP:OWNBEHAVIOUR. — Guarapiranga ☎ 04:07, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- As a sidenote, I'll add that the accusation that this is somehow WP:OWN is not a valid delete rationale and seems off-topic (if you really think this is that, feel free to go make some dramah at the WP:Dramaboard) and a ridiculously obvious failure to AGF. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 22:07, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:IAR/WP:5P5.
avoid disruption and unnecessary server load while editing heavy articles
is a perfectly legitimate reason to use templates, particularly when those do not need to be edited frequently (for example, Template:2021 Canadian federal election synopsis documents the final results of an election - it is extremely unlikely there is any good-faith reason to go substantially messing with these, and what other minor edits tend to happen are not really hampered by the use of a template) and even more so when they are really large (for example, Template:2012 Summer Olympics calendar comes in at nearly 40 kb (!!) of wikitext; and the 2021 election template comes it at well over 100 kb (!!!)). Also "keep" as the nominator does not present an accurate reading of the guideline (a mere guideline, on top of that) they are citing:Templates should not normally be used to store article text, as this makes it more difficult to edit the content.
. So, beyond the fact that there are no firm rules on Wikipedia; the guideline itself makes clear that exceptions are possible. In this case, both on WP:KISS principles (since most editors will not need to edit those, such large templates being put directly in articles probably does more harm than good); and on the grounds that moving such tables out of mainspace is very likely to reduce disruption and vandalism to them (most vandalism is in article space, not in template space; and most vandals are not familiar with Wikipedia namespaces and template transclusion...). A template explaining this seems therefore perfectly appropriate. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 22:04, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

Your example Template:2021 Canadian federal election synopsis in fact is a good one to put back into mainspace, as "documents the final results of an election - it is extremely unlikely there is any good-faith reason to go substantially messing with these" is precisely a reason to put it back, because its presence defeats a central purpose of templates: to be a central place to make updates to many articles.

- How would sticking a 100+ kb template which doesn't need to be edited in an article be an improvement?

Enforcing the "rules" would make Wikipedia harder to maintain; and this seems like a valid reason to make an exception (one which already has broad application in practice); ergo, a strict desire for enforcement of the "rules" should not be allowed to stand in the way of this.

- Citing IAR is almost never persuasive and usually and actively damages the argument citing it in a consensus discussion.
How would sticking a 100+ kb template which doesn't need to be edited in an article be an improvement?
1) It's article content. Article content goes in article space. This is almost a QED. 2) Most of these templates are not complicated. Long, but not complicated. 3) It disrupts the ability to find templates that actually are used correctly for their purpose. 4) It disrupts some editing tools.only need infrequent (if any) editing
It's not about whether it's needed, it's about whether someone who is able, can. You don't get to choose who those people are. That's why what you have said is being likened to WP:OWNership. Izno (talk) 23:22, 11 June 2022 (UTC)- 1) there are plenty of instances of article content being transcluded from other pages (for consistency, for ease of editing, ...). I don't see how this is any different.
- 2) long and simple = still a lot of wikitext to parse trough to edit it
- 3) doesn't follow, even if you assume that these templates are being used incorrectly (heck, by this line of reasoning, this template should be kept so people know which kind of template they've fallen upon)
- 4) Editing tools being disrupted by transclusions (a frequent feature of Wikipedia) is the editing tool's problems.
"only need infrequent (if any) editing" It's not about whether it's needed, it's about whether someone who is able, can.
so, what? Someone who is able to find the template definitively can edit the template when needed; and all the others don't have a huge amount of wikitext to parse through when they don't need to. This is consistent with the WP:KISS principle, making Wikipedia easier to edit even for those who are not aware of it's technical difficulties. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 23:48, 11 June 2022 (UTC)- I'll stop at 1:

Your're contradicting yourself:
Making the tables themselves harder to edit is a feature, not a bug[1]
Section transclusion does indeed make consistent editing across articles easier--especially of tables!--as the transcluded content can be edited in the source article with Visual Editor (which is not available for templates, as these should not normally be used to store article text (WP:TG), but... templates, i.e. repetitive material that might need to show up on a larger number of articles or pages (H:T)--I'm sorry you understood it differently, RandomCanadian). — Guarapiranga ☎ 00:13, 15 June 2022 (UTC)- You are deliberately misunderstanding despite me having explained this multiple times.
for ease of editing
[of the affected articles, not of the tables themselves, as I have been very consistently saying]. Section transclusion requires more technical know-how (it's not as simple as plopping down a{{template}}
) and is more prone to vandalism and disruption (since disruption to the article it's transcluded from is more likely than for an equivalent template). RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 00:45, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗plicit 06:52, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- On the merits, all of the templates transcluding this one should be deleted roughly for the reasons explained by the nominator, and the argument for keeping is "let's randomly ignore established consensus" and should be given little weight. But that doesn't constitute a good reason to delete this template now rather than after it becomes unused. However, this template as written consists of two parts: a useless tautology that could be applied to almost every single template in existence, and a request to ignore WP:BOLD, so it should be deleted independently of whether its transcluding templates should be. * Pppery * it has begun... 14:04, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per nom and pppery. I'm also not seeing a good reason to invoke IAR here. The template basically consists of two parts - some claims that transcluding a table via template is less server intensive than having it in an article directly, and instructions not to edit it because it might be disruptive. The performance claims are unsubstantiated and don't make any sense - how is it better for the servers to transclude a table in a template in addition to parsing it? The phrase "lightweight transclusion" doesn't appear to be used anywhere outside this template and clones of it. The instructions to avoid editing the template to avoid disruption are, again, unsubstantiated - How can editing a template transcluded onto one page cause so much disruption that you need to discus edits first? I also think the wording of this template is deep into WP:BEANS territory - if you tell people "don't edit this page or you'll break the servers" I think the most likely outcome is that you will scare off good faith editors and increase the incentive for vandals. 192.76.8.94 (talk) 22:47, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

You've nominated this template for speedy deletion twice now. @Liz declined your first speedy deletion tag a few weeks ago, and then you re-tagged it today. Speedy deletion is for non-controversial deletion, and the fact that your request was previously declined means that it's controversial.

Propose merging Template:Contains Levantine characters with Template:Contains special characters.
Should be merged with the standard contains template. I don't think it's appropriate to be advocating the use of specific CSS in articles. Izno (talk) 16:43, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Izno. I understand your reasoning. Unfortunately, I'm afraid Template:Contains special characters wouldn't help at all. There's an issue with Levantine Arabic (and some other varieties of Arabic, but not all...) that is very specific to Levantine and that can only be solved by using specific CSS. Please read the discussion that led to the creation of this template. I ping @Verbarson: who participated in the discussion back then. Until the related CLDR ticket is fixed, I guess we'll have to keep this template. However, if you find a simpler solution, it would be amazing! A455bcd9 (talk) 18:49, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete template. It is one thing to require readers to have an up-to-date OS or web browser, or enabling fonts, to be able to read specific characters in an article, but it will never be ok to require readers, the vast majority of them, are not registered, to set up a settings page and add CSS code to it. As I wrote above, a different fix that doesn't require anything like that from readers should be done, or the problematic characters removed. In general though, I agree that this template is the type that should be merged into the proposed target. Gonnym (talk) 19:15, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep both templates. The issue with both of these templates is that they try to solve problems that should not be a problem for websites like Wikipedia. Ideally, any font should provide an acceptable (given the font style) rendering for any Unicode character; alternatively, the browser (or operating system) should select an appropriate font for each language specified by the HTML language tags, or if the current font lacks characters required by the page it should 'fall back' to some more global font that does include them.
- Multilingual support having grown rather haphazardly in browsers, OSs, mark-up and related code standards, this ideal is not always achieved. Much of the advice in Help:Special characters (linked to by {{Contains special characters}}) is outside the scope of Wikipedia configuration, and should not be necessary; at least the advice given by Template:Lang § Applying styles (linked to by {{Contains Levantine characters}}) is within the scope of Wikipedia configuration.
- I would be sympathetic to a solution that combined both issues into one template, provided that it did not result in a bloated and overloaded template doing too much in one package—which I suspect would result. The problem with Levantine Arabic remains after the solution for special characters has been implemented; it is a different problem requiring a different solution in a different place.
- Declaring some language characters to be 'problematic' and therefore unusable is an un-encyclopedic response. Editors should be free to use whatever text best communicates the meaning of an article. If we cannot seamlessly display the text required by an article, we should at least warn the user of possible problems, and direct them to possible solutions; if those solutions turns out to be beyond their capacity today, maybe need, curiosity or enthusiasm will lead them to enlarge their capacity tomorrow.-- Verbarson talkedits 21:48, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep it provides a useful warning which cannot be seemlessly replicated with the proposed merge target. I think that the template might be a bit verbose, and it might be better to link a help page or similar instead of including the proposed solution in the notice. But the essential information, that apc/ajp require unique CSS solution and may render incorrectly otherwise is useful. The fact that it is burdensome for readers to fix the rendering issue is in fact a good reason to use this notice template, as it's unlikely that many users are going to see these characters rendered correctly.

Template:TVQ
- Template:TVQ (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages · delete)
There was a prior consensus to delete this template, but Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2022 May 24 found that it should be reconsidered. This is a procedural nomination; I am neutral myself on its merits. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:53, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Explanation The reason I no longer believe the deletion of TVQ is necessary—as the one who supported it prior to the original TfD last year—has to do with the underlying database. TVQ is the TV Query template linking to a database maintained by the Federal Communications Commission in the US. At the time of TfD a year ago, this database was frozen in amber. The FCC has for years been effectuating a transition of broadcast databases from an older system known as CDBS to a system called LMS. TVQ was only pulling from CDBS, but years of television changes were recorded only in LMS. This meant some stations' records were so out of date as to be completely inaccurate, especially given major changes in TV channel allocations between 2017 and 2020. There is another template, {{FCC-LMS-Facility}}, that links to most of the same databases, but each transclusion of TVQ has to be manually edited with a new parameter to be replaced by FCC-LMS-Facility.
- The underlying issue is no longer the case, and TV Query now uses data from LMS and is up-to-date. There is no need to delete this template when we also have {{AMQ}} and {{FMQ}} (which, in radio, did not have as pressing a data accuracy issue vis-a-vis LMS as TVQ), templates that never needed to be deprecated at any time. This template is fine for use, even if there are fewer uses of it. My !vote is Keep. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 18:38, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Sammi Brie does {{FCC-LMS-Facility}} do the same thing as this template? Do they both link to the same page? If so, then I'd argue that deprecation of this template should still continue as we shouldn't have two templates doing the same exact thing. Seeing as how {{FCC-LMS-Facility}} is more used (4304 vs 598), that one should be the one kept and used. Gonnym (talk) 09:49, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- They do not, Gonnym. They link to different interfaces that mostly poll the same underlying data.
- FCC-LMS-Facility requires a Facility ID. For instance, let's use KTVH-DT (FID 5290) with
{{TVQ|KTVH-DT}}
and{{FCC-LMS-Facility|5290|KTVH-DT}}
and see what we get (click on both to see the different pages they yield).

KTVH-DT in the FCC TV station database
- Facility details for Facility ID 5290 (KTVH-DT) in the FCC Licensing and Management System
- The LMS template has more uses because it works for radio stations (or anything with an FCC Facility ID) and because we proactively removed TVQ from hundreds of pages. Radio stations have their own query templates, {{AMQ}} and {{FMQ}}, which I never intended for total deprecation and are still in place in the vast majority of articles. (At the time, radio was much less intensively using LMS than TV, so it continuing to be primarily a CDBS-based query was not a major problem, and in any event LMS info is now used throughout the Query family.) The radio and TV station infoboxes can call an LMS link automatically for most US stations, but there's a quirk of the way they're coded that means that I can't recommend their use on most low-power (-LD/-LP) radio and TV stations. (They generate links to public inspection files as well, which do not exist for that class of station. I could avoid this if I could detect call signs ending in -D, -LD, and -LP...)

Template:HS listed building header
- Template:HS listed building header (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages · delete)
These templates make editing listed building pages with the VisualEditor very difficult. This is an accesibility issue as it prevents editors unfamiliar with wikicode (either due to lack of experience or a disability that makes manipulating large quantities of text harder) from contributing. A simple task such as wikilinking Park Bridge, Aberdeenshire in List of Category A listed buildings in Aberdeenshire is impossible. When one clicks on the table in VisualEditor and tries to edit it, the editor freezes which is a confusing and poor user experience. These pages are especially long and so would benefit from the ease of editing that the VisualEditor brings.
The template adds formatting for coordinates, but this could easily be achieved using other templates within a table. This would allow these templates to be editable with the VisualEditor interface.
I propose this template and Template:HS listed building row are deleted (or at least, deprecated) and swapped for standard wikitext tables. NemesisAT (talk) 10:13, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. This deletion nomination for templates that are used productively on over 1,000 pages seems premature, given that there is no discussion at the talk page for either template, and a TemplateData section has not been added to either template's documentation page. Start with attempting to modify the templates first, please. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:21, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- I've tried editing again and sat and waited for it to load and a dialogue for editing has finally loaded after a while waiting. So the page is at least editable, however each parameter can only be edited essentially as source code. The VisualEditor tools for adding references, images, and templates are not accesible. Thus I still think the tables should be converted to standard wikitext tables, and TemplateData would not resolve these concerns (though it could add some explanation for each parameter). NemesisAT (talk) 17:38, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- As the template freezes the Visual editor when edited for me, I don't think a TemplateData section would be much use. I started the discussion here as I just don't see a good reason for this template to exist. It makes the code a bit shorter for source code users, but this should not be at the expense of visual editor users. NemesisAT (talk) 15:42, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Please see the instructions above:
Templates should not be nominated if the issue can be fixed by normal editing.
Since that has not yet been tried, this nomination is premature. It sounds like you need Wikipedia:Help desk if you are having trouble using your page editor of choice. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:54, 31 May 2022 (UTC)- The issue can not be fixed with normal editing. Having the table as a template makes it impossible to use VisualEditor features to format items within the table. The only way to fix this, as far as I know, is to not have a template and use a normal table instead. There is no need for a template when a standard wikitable would suffice.

- Yes, this is a known issue with most/all "table builder" templates for VisualEditor. I get the feeling it would be more productive to have a wider discussion about these templates. I think the issue will be resolved when Parsoid is used for displayed HTML and not just VE. Weak keep accordingly. --Izno (talk) 22:14, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

Template:Cite COL
- Template:Cite COL (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages · delete)
This is for citing Catalogue of Life, which is a useful taxonomic database. Only 3 transclusions since 2016. No documentation. Seems to cite a very specific subset of the website (the 2011 Annual Checklist) rather than the regular search page. Suggest subst-ing the 3 transclusions then delete. –Novem Linguae (talk) 22:14, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- I made this template simply to ease the translation of contents from other languages back to English. Also, there is now a newer 3rd version of citing contents from CoL, but I never included. Open to comments, suggestions or modification. --Tomchiukc (talk) 03:11, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Comment. I found the similar template {{Catalogue of Life}} today, which is what I was expecting this one to be and which has 284 transclusions. If {{Cite COL}} kept, it should perhaps be renamed to {{Cite COL 2011 Annual Checklist}} or similar, so as not to get mixed up with the template {{Catalogue of Life}}. Still leaning delete though since only 3 transclusions. –Novem Linguae (talk) 20:00, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Memorial Cup

- Template:Infobox hockey tournament season (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages · delete)
Propose merging Template:Infobox Memorial Cup with Template:Infobox hockey tournament season.
{{Infobox hockey tournament season}} has the same functionality. It actually has more that could increase the amount of information shown in infobox. See my post on the template talk page for a side-by-side view of the templates. –Aidan721 (talk) 15:12, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- I dislike attempts to put more information inside infoboxes, which are now bloated with unnecessary trivia. Simpler is better. Flibirigit (talk) 11:23, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
- Just because there are more parameters available, doesn't mean they have to all be used. –Aidan721 (talk) 14:04, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
- Adding more unnecessary parameters violates MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE. Simpler is better. Flibirigit (talk) 01:40, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

- I've updated the syntax to pass parameters to {{Infobox ice hockey tournament season}} so that it has the same style without adding the additional parameters as I agree too many are clunky and unnecessary. –Aidan721 (talk) 13:55, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
