all red links. Frietjes (talk) 22:49, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Delete - If you look at the talk page of the user who created this template (User talk:Scottarius) this was meant to accompany Starboard Morning which is the only article the user created. The article was tagged for speedy deletion CSD A7 and deleted for being an unnotable band. BlowingTopHat 21:46, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So I request that this be deleted immediately because the accompanying article was speedily deleted, so this single-purpose template should be aswell. BlowingTopHat 21:46, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox Australian Hut (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to {{Infobox building}}; only 14 transclusions. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:35, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose in this case the buildingness of the hut is not relevant, instead it is a different set of parameters. Should be merged with any other hut templates if they exist, to a general walking/climbing hut infobox. Rich Farmbrough, 20:59, 21 March 2012 (UTC).[reply]
- Articles such as Daveys Hut and Keebles Hut, which use the nominated template, are about notable buildings. Can you provide an example where the subject is not notable as a building? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 00:16, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - CSIRO Hut Rich Farmbrough, 19:38, 24 March 2012 (UTC).[reply]
Let's not merge this at all: the transclusions vary from travel guides to disparate articles on projects or sites, and the buildings themselves seem not to be of particular note. It's hard to argue that any of the current transclusions would be worse off without an infobox. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:10, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Replace with {{Infobox mountain hut}} for some of them -- WOSlinker (talk) 08:32, 24 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ah yes, sounds like a good replace/merge target. Rich Farmbrough, 19:38, 24 March 2012 (UTC).[reply]

Template:JPL-SBDB (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Delete Unused template that seems to be imported from the German Wikipedia. It was used in only one article, but I replaced it with a proper {{cite sbdb}} instead.Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 06:44, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

template the went wrong Night of the Big Wind _talk 01:24, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Question – Please be more specific about how this template is supposed to work, and what is wrong with it? Bwrs (talk) 01:59, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I forgot to add that. It looks like an adaptation from Template:Infobox Country Special Olympics World Games. Night of the Big Wind _talk 02:11, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, are you saying it is a copyright violation or plagiarism? Wikipedia-to-Wikipedia copying is one of the easiest kinds of copyvio. to fix; you don't even have to delete it. Or are you saying that it is unnecessary? Or is it, somehow, broken? If you need help with the template then please specify in more detail what's wrong and what you want to accomplish. Finally, if you want to get rid of it and the author of the template consents to its deletion, then he or she can get rid of it speedily simply by putting “{{db-author}}” on it. Please clarify. Bwrs (talk) 02:55, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, what I say is that somebody tried to make a template and failed in the attempt. Unfortunately he had saved it instead of taking a sneak peak. Night of the Big Wind _talk 03:16, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, it is transcluded on only one page, which is proposed for deletion. Delete. Bwrs (talk) 03:30, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The creator actually needs help with the "parent" infobox, instead of having everything they have made reduced to smoking rubble. I have opposed the prod on the article, support deletion of this infobox and help with fixing the other or finding a suitable merge target. Rich Farmbrough, 20:53, 21 March 2012 (UTC).[reply]
