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.

- Keep, Template:INFOBOX INDCONST is used to substitute the full template of Template:Infobox Indian state legislative assembly constituency while using an AWB or during manual edit.

The problems was that the Template wasn't designed to be substituted. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:16, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Indeed I figured out the "Infobox Indian state legislative assembly constituency" was not made for substitution, which is why I made one for doing just that. The infobox is used on 5,000+ pages, so we need to be careful about editing the infobox template. This deletion of Template:INFOBOX INDCONST is unnecessarily disruptive. @MPGuy2824 The comparison is at Special:Diff/1102475526/1102503945, I think the comments should be substituted, they help the editors. Venkat TL (talk) 11:30, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Some things don't need fixes. Some things don't need to exist. Not every template needs to have a subst version. Just use the infobox like it should. Gonnym (talk) 12:49, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

Consistency is fine, but why merge into Template:Infobox baseball team and not Template:Infobox MLB? Curious about that rationale.
I still would prefer merging into the MLB infobox rather than the proposed baseball team infobox. Rgrds. --Bison X (talk) 20:00, 6 August 2022 (UTC) - Oppose The Negro Leagues are different from any other baseball league as are their teams. Hence why there is a separate box for MLB teams and one for the Negro Leagues. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:27, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
- Actually, it's just an infobox template & no reader would know any difference. It's just a matter of formatting & appropriate parameters can be adjusted to handle a Negro league franchise. In my case, I just prefer the formatting of the MLB infobox over the proposed baseball team infobox. Rgrds. --Bison X (talk) 02:04, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
Template:Mortal Sins According To The Catholic Church
- Template:Mortal Sins According To The Catholic Church (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages · delete)
This came to my attention as a poorly-named template, but I have deep concerns about its viability. Definition of terms: these are more properly known as "grave matter" to theologians, as a "mortal sin" cannot be judged a priori.
- Sin is a personal fault, and so how can "deforestation" or "economic inequality" be personal sins?
- This is an unsourced compilation. How many of these included articles document the sinfulness of the act? It is invalid and cannot be used as a navbox.
- In short, this fails WP:NAVBOX numbers 2, 3, and 5. Elizium23 (talk) 09:19, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

- Comment. {{8TeamBracket-Consols}} lacks the thicker borders featured in the three nominees that are employed to help the "main" rounds stand out. I believe this is a great visual feature to instantly highlight the difference between the main and consolation rounds. I therefore propose either keeping the nominees or altering {{8TeamBracket-Consols}} to adopt the thicker borders. – TurboGUY (talk) 17:29, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- @TurboGUY: While not the biggest deal, I think the thick borders are a bit excessive, but I do agree that it helps to differentiate. I've changed the headers colors of the consolation bracket to white, which I believe is sufficient. Do you agree? – Pbrks (t • c) 05:37, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
- I think this is a very fair compromise, thank you.
- I have also noticed that {{8TeamBracket-Consols}} lack the "details" parameters of "{{8TeamBracket-with third-fifth-seventh-NoSeeds}}". This parameter allows for each tie to display additional information underneath such as date, time and location of the match. There is an example in the documentation of "NoSeeds". Again, please consider adding this feature to {{8TeamBracket-Consols}}. Thanks again. – TurboGUY (talk) 13:14, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment. Pbrks! You're gonna delete my template and you didn't tell me anything about it. (I am the author of the template {{8TeamBracket-with third-fifth-seventh}}.) I don't like your rounds abbreviations. First round as "RD3"? What a nonsense! It's much more logical in my template: first round as "QF", second round as "SF", etc. So change those labels (for example from RD1 to RD7 if you prefer RDs) and I'll agree with the deletion. Maiō T. (talk) 08:35, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- Comment @Pbrks: Hi. Please take a look at the use of the template on Beach soccer at the 2019 World Beach Games – Qualification (CONCACAF) for an example of where it is currently not working properly after consolidating the old templates. 1) The scores of the seventh and third place matches will not display. 2) The details for the fifth place match will not display. 3) The details for the final are incorrectly displaying above the tie rather than below it like all other ties.
