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

Not sure what the use for this is, it's both easier and takes less space to just type "_" then {{Q|_}}. In addition it's in violation of WP:PUNCT, which states typographic style is not recommended, and this template appears to be encouraging its use. Xeworlebi (talk) 16:15, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete as it violates MOS:QUOTATION MARK. the other "feature" supported by this template is, I believe, handled by another icon template. having a template with two entirely orthogonal functions is a bad idea. Frietjes (talk) 16:32, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per above. --Zero TalkContribs 01:40, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - It's easier to use "" --The Σ talkcontribs 23:55, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - its not just for "these quotes" but other quote marks as well. See documentation "This template may be used where there are different national varieties of English spelling within standard quotes in an article's text susceptible of being acted upon by the EngvarB script – particularly in articles already tagged with {{Use British English}}, {{Use British (Oxford) English}}, {{Use Canadian English}} templates" -- Avanu (talk) 17:01, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – the template creates more confusion than it helps avoid. If there are shortcoming related to the EngvarB script, then modify the script.—Biosketch (talk) 07:50, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete MOS violation. JIMp talk·cont 16:36, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox Pahlavi Shah (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

There were only ever two Pahlavi shahs, according to Pahlavi dynasty. {{Infobox royalty}} appears to be used on their articles. This template is unused and unneeded. — This, that, and the other (talk) 06:00, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
