Delete. As an outgrowth of the related discussion at Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2019 January 4#Template:Underpopulated category, I don't know what to do with this Template. How few articles makes a category underpopulated? And if I come across such a tagged category, how do I find articles to put into it? (Help:Category#How to find articles for a category links to a help page section that no longer exists.) And most fundamentally, why is such a category even a bad thing to have in the encyclopedia?

WP:WikiProject Stub sorting notified. UnitedStatesian (talk) 15:17, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but change the scope. Instead of it asking for more stub articles to be added, its goal should be to identify whether the category should be upmerged or if the template for which the category is based upon should even exist based on the 60 article threshold. For example, Category:American baseball outfielder, 1980s birth stubs only has 18 articles in it. Maybe there's more or maybe there's not, but until there actually are at least 60 tagged with {{US-baseball-outfielder-1980s-stub}}, they should be categorized the same way articles tagged with {{US-baseball-outfielder-1990s-stub}} are. This then becomes a stub-sorting process and not a "look for more stub articles for this stub template" project. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 16:27, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if at the time in 2009 such usernames violated policy, but as far as I can see "memorial" usernames do not violate any portion of the current username policy. Per a search, there are less than 29 uses, seemingly all misclicks from the twinkle drop down when people were presumably looking for {{uw-softerblock}} (I saw that this was an actual template when I nearly did so myself..) Galobtter (pingó mió) 13:47, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Ping Vanjagenije, the person who used the template the most per the search, whether they actually meant to use this template in any instance. Galobtter (pingó mió) 14:00, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I've reviewed thousands of UAA reports over nearly a decade, and I have to say I can't recall ever seeing such a name. I'm also not at all sure this would in fact be an inst-blockable violation, so this template should probably go. Beeblebrox (talk) 06:01, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Since apparently it's no longer used, seems to be remnant of old practice. –Ammarpad (talk) 06:51, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've posted a notification on WT:UPOL. Galobtter (pingó mió) 10:50, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is there any way to check if anyone is currently blocked with this template? If we can't check it, we need to keep It for the sake of any such user. If we can check it, then any such user should either be unblocked, or reblocked with a new reason, before deletion. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:59, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
