Single-use template with code partially in German. Suggest Subst and delete * Pppery * it has begun... 23:03, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The module invocation should be sorted before substing. Template:LexikonFranken is questionable too. --Izno (talk) 13:48, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    It's implicit in a subst and delete result that the template is made to subst cleanly before substing it. By subst and delete, I meant a full reduction to untemplated wikitext in the one article. * Pppery * it has begun... 00:40, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Subst and delete Per nom. Brand-new template that doesn't even work right and doesn't seem useful elsewhere. Jackmcbarn (talk) 01:53, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The scroll gallery template is listed as broken however, it appears to just be a gallery set in the "slideshow mode" which can be achived with {{Gallery}} and with more functionality with the other template. Scroll gallery also has limited transclusions within articles. Terasail[Talk] 22:55, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Replace and delete Agree with nom, there is now a very widely used template "Gallery", which is better and more maintained than this template, and this template is only used on 6 articles. --Tom (LT) (talk) 22:58, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Replace and delete per above. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:03, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Glancing at the documentation for {{Gallery}}, it's not very apparent how that would be used to make a scroll gallery. Some documentation improvements may be in order. (Whether or not scroll galleries are a good idea is a separate question that it might be good to discuss as well.) {{u|Sdkb}}talk 23:37, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I don't see what this gains us above and beyond relying on MediaWiki-native MediaGallery (aka Lightbox). --Izno (talk) 13:52, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Wrapper edit

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Wrapper. — JJMC89(T·C) 03:28, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Wrapper with Template:Wrapper template.
{{Wrapper}} and {{Wrapper template}} are both templates that provide documentation for wrapper templates. The main difference is that the former does so through a message box, whereas the latter does so through text. We should choose one format and stick with it. {{Wrapper template}} is far more used (260 transclusions vs. just 19), so it seems to be the preferred approach. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 22:34, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. (non-admin closure) ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 11:10, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Small navbox that links to only 5 pages: the main article, Rockall; its corresponding category, Category:Rockall; 2 overly general topics, United Kingdom and Scotland; and Island of Rockall Act 1972, which is the only article that actually uses this navbox. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 13:30, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
