Template:Letter disambiguation (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Not used in any pages, and the potential use is limited (what's the point of the navigation box? it's not like they're a related topic, they're disambiguation pages). Note that the documentation was added by me before realizing that this is unused. Elliot321 (talk | contribs) 20:30, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete A navbox clearly designed to be used in A (disambiguation) to Z (disambiguation) but not used in any of them. Nigej (talk) 18:22, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Mid-Atlantic League (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The template is unused. It was thought that a new league of this name was being formed for 2021, but it was not. The template is now not needed, nor will it be in the future. NatureBoyMD (talk) 20:03, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Bad Acid Trip (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant, as there is almost nothing to navigate between. Only two albums have an article, and they are both entirely unsourced, so they could be nominated for deletion. Of the two bluelinked related articles, one doesn't mention the band at all, and the other simply lists the band in passing as an artist on the label with the names of their releases, so it provides no additional information. The band article itself also contains no reliable sources, being entirely sourced by their social media. Richard3120 (talk) 19:12, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Navbox with little in the way of navigation. Nigej (talk) 18:13, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2020 Overwatch League standings (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused after the league format changed due to COVID-19; the template was split to {{2020 Overwatch League Asia standings}} and {{2020 Overwatch League North America standings}}. Pbrks (talk) 19:10, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - unused and will never have a use given the change in format. ƒirefly ( t · c ) 22:06, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Nuke (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused template, I'm guessing it is unknown to most editors and admins so unlikely to be used in the future. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 17:36, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Of course it's unused, it's not a template meant to stick around. Perhaps consider adding it to Twinkle and some documentation pages on NPP and (speedy) deletion. Elliot321 (talk | contribs) 21:20, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't see that this template helps. Any experienced admin is going to investigate mass-new-page vandalism if stuff ends up in the CSD/AIV queues, without the need for this template. --Izno (talk) 06:51, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Procedural close that someone probably should have caught earlier. CFD is actually the correct place to deal with stub-related XFD. The template's fate will be per outcome of the linked CFD (which was started the same day). @Nyttend: You may wish to leave a copy of your comment there, but I will leave a pointer there.

Template:ValdezCordovaAK-geo-stub (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This census area was divided in 2019. New templates/categories should be made to reflect the change, and the articles in question re-tagged according to their new census area. Molandfreak (talk, contribs, email) 08:22, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – WikiProject Stub sorting wishes to exert jurisdiction over this type of content. Thus far, they've chosen to drop the ball on it; see Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals#Valdez–Cordova Census Area, Alaska geography stubs. Perhaps either these editors should do the job they signed up for or the community should be questioning why this project exists. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 10:42, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Orphan and then delete. If it doesn't exist anymore, nothing is located there. Nyttend (talk) 11:25, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This goes hand-in-hand with Category:Valdez–Cordova Census Area, Alaska geography stubs. For whatever reason, the nominator failed to mention that there was an interrelated CFD and vice-versa, nor do I see any notice of either XFD at WP Stub Sorting. If they had done their job, there would have been no need for these discussions. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 12:08, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Valdez–Cordova Census Area, Alaska (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This census area was divided in 2019. New templates were made to reflect this, but this template is still around for some reason. Molandfreak (talk, contribs, email) 08:16, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Because the task of sorting out all the content in question was a little more difficult than running an AWB script and making untold thousands of superfluous edits, it exceeded the free time I had available when I tackled it back in December. Glad to finally see someone stepping up to the plate and helping to finish the task. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 11:18, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to {{Alaska}}. This is a unique situation — while a county was renamed a few years ago and several Alaska boroughs/CAs have been renamed in recent years, I believe the last time a US county or county-equivalent (other than an independent city) was abolished was 1983, when Washabaugh County, South Dakota was merged with one of its neighbors. So we have no precedent for handling a template for a county or equivalent that just doesn't exist anymore. Of course we don't need to keep an orphaned template as such, but I think it's best to retain the template name and content for page history purposes, e.g. [1] is better if {{Alaska}} appears at the bottom, instead of a redlinked template.

- technically the last time was Bullfrog County, Nevada in 1989, though it never had any populated places. Elliot321 (talk | contribs) 21:23, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This is a routine removal of a no longer used template and especially one of such a little used navbox. --Izno (talk) 18:36, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
