One transclusion. Substitute and delete. Steel1943 (talk) 23:08, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Do not delete it. Kevinhanit (talk) 17:29, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Steel1943, If you delete it, then what would you substitute it with? Kevinhanit (talk) 17:32, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

    • @Kevinhanit: Please see this edit for how "substitution" works. What I mean is that I don't see a need for this content to be in the "Template:" namespace since it is used in only one article. So, with "substitution, the code of the template would be placed in the article instead of the transclusion of {{Ontlaseating}}. Steel1943 (talk) 17:48, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks for the update. It is a transferable template that goes with the article of the Current Ontario Legislature. It makes it much easier to read the article while updating it as this section is extremely long when edited. Kevinhanit (talk) 18:18, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This template is ugly to look and and difficult to read even on a computer, let alone a phone. That said it's better off as a template as it would make editing the article very difficult. --Tom (LT) (talk) 08:01, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Subst and delete The markup stored here is no more complicated than any other article with a wikitable directly in the wikitext, of which there are many, so this is just like any other single-use template. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 01:52, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Subst and delete Seems to me that this is much too detailed stuff for Wikipedia. Substitute back in and then there can be a discussion there as to whether this is needed or not. Either way, it shouldn't be a template. Nigej (talk) 09:47, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete; small image-map without a lot of code, so there's no reason to keep it separate. Nyttend (talk) 01:15, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Replace with image and delete - the image with a clever facility so that you can place the cursor and the name of the person pops up. However, the name are on the image anyway, so seems pointless, especially since when I try it the wrong name often pops up. Nigej (talk) 10:35, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This will break all the old versions of the articles in the history, though. My memory of these are that they were common at the time, because the code is so easy to break if they're editable in article space. One stray character and they break.

  • Keep the coding is complicated and will make editing the contents, and editing the article, more difficult. Better kept as a separate template. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tom (LT) (talkcontribs) 08:01, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Taipei_Film_Awards#Individual awards lists some of the winners (last column). The template is similarly incomplete. Only three blue links if we ignore the ensemble cast. Rather minor award, so seems excessive. Nigej (talk) 11:49, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is content hiding out in the template space without any obvious reason, and seems to have quite a bit of unnecessary complexity. It should be substed into each of the articles as appropriate and then deleted. Izno (talk) 02:48, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

unused template Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 00:09, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Update after Andy Dingley WP:BOLDly reverted my change: Template with nothing but an image that can and should be moved directly to the article. There is not reason for an infobox template to house a single image for one article. --Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 00:22, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep It's only 'unused' because you're going around removing it first! [1] Andy Dingley (talk) 00:19, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Andy Dingley: oh FFS you have got to be kidding. The template contains nothing but an image. It seemed like a pretty open and shut case. You're vote (see WP:!VOTE) doesn't address the point of the nomination which is that the infobox contains nothing but an image that is used on 1 page. Why on earth does that need an infobox template? --Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 00:22, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • So make an honest nomination. Not an obviously untrue one. Andy Dingley (talk) 00:25, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Andy Dingley: it was honest... I made a totally legit and valid edit, placing the image on the page and removing the template. Then I nominated the template. You chose to revert my edit for absolutely no reason. It has nothing to do with the merits of the edit, you just didn't like my process. So that is YOUR issue. --Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 00:28, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Subst and delete - this is a plain image without any code at all added, so the template is actually a wasted template call. Also, semantically, the template is using a table (Infobox) to show an image, which should not be the way that information is presented. --Gonnym (talk) 00:29, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
