Template:Western-film-stub (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant template. Functionality is fully covered by templates in the Template:ccyy-Western-film-stub range. No Great Shaker (talk) 15:33, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:14, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: As a holder category. This type of category isn't meant as a permanent location, but as a holding cell for later sorting. Similar vein as, for example, Template:England-footy-bio-stub, a temporary holding location until it is sorted into the more specific category. Again, I would suggest that you bring these to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Stub sorting for discussion there before TfD. Curbon7 (talk) 17:59, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You have got your wires crossed. This is a template, not a category. The associated category remains in situ as a holder of several sub-categories. And, no, I will not take it to your project talk page because the place to discuss a TfD is here at TfD. No Great Shaker (talk) 20:16, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This template adds it to the holder category (Category:Western (genre) film stubs). And while it's certainly not required to take it to the project talk page, it is certainly a good practice to do so, since these are Project-specific templates. Curbon7 (talk) 00:11, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The template is redundant, meaning it is no longer in use because the category holds sub-categories by release date only and all Western stubs go into one of the sub-categories, each one triggered by its own template. Therefore, we need to delete this template and keep the category. No Great Shaker (talk) 00:50, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The point of the template is to place stubs into that stub category. That category is just a holder. It is a temporary holding cell. Stub sorters use templates like this in order to be able to place stubs into the holder category for later sorting into the specific sub-cats. Curbon7 (talk) 06:28, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. per Curbon7's last comment. Editors who don't sort stubs regularly may not know about the ccyy-Western-film-stub templates, and the Western-film-stub template is a simple enough guess on their part. Stub sorters, by definition, are here to provide, use, and organize more specific sub-cats for this very reason. Her Pegship (?) 15:24, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Callerlab (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This seems to be a custom version of {{Infobox organization}} from 2005. It has only two transclusions, so very clearly ought to be replaced with the standard organization infobox. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 07:04, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Cat cen nav (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Used on only 4 categories. Can be fairly safely deleted. Izno (talk) 04:20, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What do you propose to replace the functionality with? Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 13:55, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing originally when I nominated. I see there are several other cargo-cult templates (some of them listed at MediaWiki talk:Common.css/to do#wikitable/toc hlist) that all do basically the same thing, so you can sell me on something like that this template should exist and those should not, but you would have to convince me that the subcategories in the category already are insufficient to do so. In this day and age where subcategories are easy to access, I think all these templates should probably go. Izno (talk) 16:14, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2013 Southeast Asian Games women's basketball game 1 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Templates that are scorecards of games rather than something that's necessary to be on separate template space. Substitution should apply on the respective articles. And the edit notices at the top of the page for each of the four templates may have been the practice at the time, but it goes against the idea it's for maintenance as article content should be on article space which is clearly what these four are.--WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:18, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Subst and delete all as purely static information, with no edits by humans (other than the creation and relisting of this TfD) since 2014. 04:16, 7 October 2021 (UTC)

Template:2009-2010 flu pandemic table (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Used only on one article, 2009 swine flu pandemic by country. If possible, should be substituted on this article or be used across multiple related articles. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:26, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:LGBT rights summary (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Used only on six pages for the relevant topic, whereas on all other articles about LGBT rights for a specific U.S. state, territory, or country, use the non-template of the class="wikitable" format. The six current uses should be substituted away from the template format to the regular table format. Seems redundant to have as a separate template. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:50, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Kyūshū Collegiate American Football Association navbox (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

A recreated navbox that was deleted back in 2017 for the exact same reasons now as I'll quote part of the original nomination: "The template mostly links universities not the teams." The only football links are to the programs of the schools, not the teams of the schools. No navigational benefit is presented here. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 00:11, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
