Aside from test pages, this template is no longer widely used (supplanted by Module:String apparently). It should also be delisted from WP:CASC if deleted. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:47, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Train2104's proposal as this clearly has historical value. I'm wondering if such templates from the old days shouldn't be somehow properly archived so that they're available as a historical reference in a way that doesn't clutter the template namespace, but without going to the trouble of having them deleted. – Uanfala (talk) 19:43, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unprotect and mark historical: I refer colleagues to this template all the time as a brilliant demonstration and cogent explanation of the lengths we went through in the olden days before Lua. – Minh Nguyễn 💬 15:26, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

These navboxes denote the rosters of the three teams finished in the top three at the 2011 IFAF World Championship. This is a tournament of relatively minor note and membership on these rosters is not defining to the subjects listed in these navboxes. Furthmore the Japan navbox contains only one valid blue link among its list items, and it's questionable whether the other red-linked players are notable enough to have their own article on Wikipedia.

Are these that common situations that a prewritten template message is required? I don't think so, at least not anymore. – Train2104 (t • c) 03:36, 30 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't deal with deletion and novice editors, but these template messages look sensible enough. I think the situation in #1 arises pretty commonly, so at the least this one should be kept. – Uanfala (talk) 07:54, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • #1 and #3 should be kept: #1 because PROD without giving a rationale is very common, and #3 because nominating for AfD when PROD could be used wastes editors' time. #2 should be deleted because the speedy deletion notification templates serve the same purpose (notifying a user about the tagging for speedy deletion of a page the user created). #2 should also be kept because nominating for PROD when CSD could be used wastes editors' time.

Re #2: this isn't used to notify the creator of the page, but the person who prodded it. Do you think, Luis150902, that the generic speedy deletion notices can be used in this case as well? – Uanfala (talk) 13:54, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Answer: No. My vote has just been updated. Luis150902 (talk | contribs) 14:12, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
