The result of the discussion was Snow keep. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 13:36, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Find a grave is an unreliable user generated site that often includes misinformation or copyrighted material. See Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources. We shouldn't be encouraging its use on wikipedia through a template. Note to other users, as Template:Find a Grave was permanently protected, I couldn't nominate it directly so I placed it on the related subpage. Apologies if this was improperly done. 4meter4 (talk) 16:01, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - As with IMDB, it can be used as an external link. (WP:FINDAGRAVE-EL qualifies this as "rarely", but "rarely" is not "never".)--NapoliRoma (talk) 17:34, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - as useful. Wikipedia is also a user-generated site that can include misinformation or copyrighted material. Remove/prevent offending instances as-needed instead of blanket removal.   ~ Tom.Reding (talkdgaf)  21:33, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - the fact that it usually is unsuitable as source is nothing new, however the template is suited for the external links section. ...GELongstreet (talk)
  • Keep per others. Shushugah (he/him • talk) 22:07, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per arguments above. Jweiss11 (talk) 02:21, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – the grave marker photos (with dates, spellings of names, and often other information) it contains are reliable information. Doremo (talk) 03:52, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – Find a Grave is not perfect, just like Wikipedia, but it contains information not readily available anywhere else. It's very useful. Utuado (talk) 14:16, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Note that this was a snow keep less than a year ago, and it looks like that's where it's heading now. NapoliRoma (talk) 16:01, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Usage of the template is neither mandatory nor forbidden. In some cases it is acceptable per WP:ELMAYBE, and as described at WP:FINDAGRAVE-EL. --Animalparty! (talk) 18:51, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep While it is inaccurate at times, as with all genealogical sources, sometimes it has otherwise unavailable articles, etc, and for southern planters or politicians it may contain links to family branches which moved north or west and are "forgotten" in older genealogical publications.Jweaver28 (talk) 19:26, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per others but also because I've been doing a lot of research concerning dead persons for the past few months and this link has come in handy far more often than not. TCN7JM 00:03, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per all the above. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 09:21, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep for same reasons as before and above. —Phil | Talk 11:00, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Table which is used only at Pellegrini's Cabinet. Should be subst into article. Gonnym (talk) 11:14, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  •   Comment: As a creator of this template, I am not against having it removed, and instead having the information it contains set within the article. I created the template by copying the template of the previous government, for the sole reason that I do not have sufficient wiki markup skills to create a sufficiently well looking table into the article. Thus, if someone transfers the template into a table in the article, I do not see a reason to reatain this template. If, however, the template is deleted before the information it contains is transfered into the article, I will consider it as a loss of information.
    • The information is important and there is no reason at all to remove it from the wiki, just to place it inside the article instead of in a template.

Delete The mtv.com website has been restructured, and so this template no longer produces working artist-specific links; all default to a high-level page on the site.

Both redundant now after I made the fix to the coding on the articles where these were used. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 01:47, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

you can't do this without adding the table headings. these template generate the table top and the table headings, you have erased the table headings and should be fixed before these are deleted. Frietjes (talk) 19:59, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
