The result of the discussion was keep. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 01:55, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The template this claims to implement is already implemented in Wikitext and does not need to be luafied. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 20:40, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as the module author. This is exactly the sort of template that should be converted to Lua. It contains several sections of duplicated code, that in Lua can be reduced to simple for loops; it has an arbitrary upper limit of possible parameters, which will go away with a Lua version; and it contains complex if/else logic which is difficult to indent and comment clearly in template code, but trivial in Lua. Given the fact that it uses a large number of parameters, and that it already calls Module:String, a Lua version is also likely to be a lot faster. The module needs to be tested and deployed, not deleted. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 14:00, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Mr. Stradivarius: the module might not be deployed yet, but it's clearly a step in the right direction for Template:Search link. – Uanfala (talk) 16:57, 9 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep replacement would use lua anyway, so no there would be no performance improvements, and there is no harm in keeping the more human-readable module. --Ahecht (TALK

Incorrect use of a navbox, as it doesn't navigate anything. However no point in converting this to another format, as it's pretty fancruft-y. --woodensuperman 11:29, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete—Concur with nominator. Used in one article, but the information is covered in the text and the timing of releases doesn't seem to be important to the subject, suggesting substitution (albeit not as a navbox regardless) unwarranted. --Bsherr (talk) 17:12, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete instead per the WP:FOOTY league season outline, league standing tables should display just the overall record of every team, not home/away results. Splitting the results and using an inconsistent style for league standings creates further, unnecessary confusion for readers. Almost all other league tables on Wikipedia do not split home/away results. S.A. Julio (talk) 15:29, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Maybe a good idea, but I want to listen to template 's author, and think what 's his proposal. Hhkohh (talk) 22:26, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:FOOTY and S.A. Julio's longer argument above about this. While wikiprojects don't create rules, once they've non-controversially normalized an enormous category of articles and their navigation, it's a poor idea to start forking "my article/subcategory is special and different" exceptions from it unless there's a crystal-clear WP:IAR reason that justifies the divergence.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  02:52, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary and too specific lua module, can be implemented in Wikitext with a call to Module:String. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 00:14, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as the module author. This would be more awkward to do with Module:String, as you would need two calls to the match function instead of the one call to string.match that the current version uses. The error-handling code would also have to be replaced with multiple #if parser functions (maybe necessitating more match calls). Even for short modules, this kind of logic is more readable in Lua, because we can use variables, and because we can indent the code without having to worry about the extra whitespace changing the output. Delete I just checked, and the module isn't actually used, which makes my argument moot. If anyone starts using SBNs we can always reinstate it. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 11:09, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Query: Is the plan to change {{SBN}} to use a Module:String call to do this, or to also delete that template along with the module? I'd be in favor of the conversion, but not a double deletion.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  02:59, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    My original plan was to Wikitextify it, but Mr. Stradivarius seems to be advocating a delete of the template too, which I wouldn't oppose. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 18:57, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, that's right, I think the template should be deleted too, as it isn't being used. If there's a chance of it being used, though, then I think both the module and the template should be kept. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 11:41, 6 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
