The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was no consensus. Deletion appears to benefit no one. If it clutters the article now, simply remove it and add it back in two or three years' time. Izkala (talk) 13:09, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template:NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Navbox with zero links. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:01, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose deletion. Simply because this is new and contains the very first NCAA championship, which was awarded yesterday, is no reason for deletion. This was the first of the annual NCAA championships that will populate this template going forward. Why should this new NCAA sport be the only one without a template? Jeff in CA (talk) 17:47, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment A template's purpose is to navigate between articles. When there are no articles, there is nothing to navigate between. The consensus has long been- Write the articles first then create the template....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 18:16, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not enough links to provide useful navigation. --Rob Sinden (talk) 11:22, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This is a new NCAA championship. I expect that more articles will be notable in the future. Fbdave (talk) 22:36, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And when they are, then we can create a navbox. Right now, it serves no useful purpose. --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:35, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The closer should consider the long-standing consensus against including navigational boxes where they provide no useful navigation on the assumption other articles will be developed in the future. Doing so adds clutter to article for no net benefit. I do not object to this being userfied and re-added to articles once there are at least four total blue links in the template. ~ Rob^Talk 14:51, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Not enough support/participation to achieve a rough consensus for deletion. It looks to be an acceptable wrapper around the unicode symbol for now. Not taking action. (non-admin closure) — Andy W. (talk · ctb) 08:23, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Lighthouse icon (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Used only 3 times and in generally non-standard fashion. There may be a more appropriate template that this could be merged to, but I'm doubtful. Izno (talk) 11:47, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. While this is used in only three articles, it sees multiple uses in each article, bringing total transclusions up to 10+. This is a worthwhile template given that the unicode is hard to remember and we have similar templates such as {{Ferry icon}}. ~ Rob^Talk 14:48, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary – only two articles listed in the template, which can be linked to each other on the respective article pages. FamblyCat94 (talk) 05:12, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to me this links 5 articles--the band, its 2 members, and the 2 articles in question (as well as the "related link for a 6th article). Keep. --Izno (talk) 11:53, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
