Template:GAC4TeamBracket (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:GAC6TeamBracket (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:GAC8TeamBracket (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

These three templates appear to be versions of {{4TeamBracket}}, {{6TeamBracket}}, and {{8TeamBracket}}, specifically intended for use on tournaments of the Great American Conference. There appears be no specific need of anything special for the Great American Conference tournaments, and no reason why those tournament brackets can't be constructed with the available, pre-existing generic bracket templates. I have replaced all instances of the nominated templates with their generic counterparts. Jweiss11 (talk) 22:27, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unused and not even sure of the point of this. Where would it even go? Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 20:18, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:CFB navbox (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Hardcoded instance of {{navbox}} which developed in parallel to it and has continued to live on past the point where its separation is a good idea (editprotected requests are being raised to keep the two codebases aligned, for instance). Existing transclusions can be trivially substituted to produce exactly the same output; future potential transclusions can use {{navbox}} directly and thus editors do not need to internally keep track of two slightly different syntaxes and feature sets.

As I seem to remember explaining previously in these circumstances, deletion will be performed by substituting the existing examples, probably in an automated manner. There will be zero impact to existing transclusions, and editors need not concern themselves with the method used to orphan the current code (it'll be done by the closing admin).

That sounds great then; I'd never seen that explained elsewhere, and thus wished to voice a valid concern (which appears to be addressed). Superb.LanternLight (talk) 03:22, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
