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

Unused template. Title looks like it would be a counterpart to Template:PI, while in fact it is not � (talk) 15:17, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as an unused template. APerson (talk!) 19:21, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep typing {{SIGMA}} is much easier than trying to remember how to type one on my keyboard. See also the nutshell of User talk:Σ/TI. Legoktm (talk) 00:28, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I use the "Math and logic" symbols of the CharInsert extension, but don't see a need to get rid of this template at this time. It is not just an ordinary keyboard shortcut. —PC-XT+ 06:00, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, as keyboard aide to type it. Question for the nom: how is it not a counterpart for {{PI}}? Greek capital letter - bingo. -DePiep (talk) 15:12, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • It wasn’t at the time of the nomination. Some IP made it such. � (talk) 13:37, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
