Rugby union squad navigation templates

Rarely used and updated templates for teams that all feature in competitions previously deemed non-notable or get little coverage, or no don't compete in the top tier of their domestic competition. I don't see how they bring any help to a reader in terms of navigation anymore. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 08:38, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: the templates for clubs competing in the Pro D2 and Japan Rugby League One competitions (Divisions 1 and 2). I have no opinion about the others. It's fundamentally untrue that the Pro D2 and Japan Rugby League One (JRLO) are non-notable competitions. There's more than enough coverage of them if you look at more languages than just English. This type of template is only used in player biographies. If the templates of – for example – JRLO clubs are not used frequently, it's because many Japanese players don't have biographies in the English version of Wikipedia, but that is IMO no reason to delete the templates. They'll still be used in the biographies of (non-Japanese) players with a biography. There seem to be editors keeping squad lists of (some of) the clubs up-to-date. Why not ask those editors to also keep the templates up-to-date as well? They may not even be aware of the templates' existence and will possibly be happy to do it. I'm happy to keep a few of them up-to-date (I have done so in the past), but won't commit to doing all of them. Ruggalicious (talk) 12:25, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    No point in having a navbox if it's filled with non-existent pages. Vestrian24Bio 12:32, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    My only issue with Pro D2 and JRLO Div 2 teams is that only some of them include enough links to players with articles to make them worthwile to keep. If it was all of the teams then I wouldn't have included them. Part of the problem though is they haven't been updated in a number of seasons and so most of the links are no longer accurate and irrelevant. If there is consensus to keep these ones I'll remove. As a note there are no JRLO Division 1 templates here, only Division 2 and 3 (I guess there is no issue with Div 3 as there are barely more than 1 to 5 links max in these ones, again usually out of date) Rugbyfan22 (talk) 17:51, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Campaignbox Peruvian–Bolivian War (1841–1842)

Most of these links are red or redirects and the page creator has been blocked for socking and also nationalistic editing. They were accused of writing hoax battle articles so I don't think even what remains here is reliable. Liz Read! Talk! 19:01, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Inex series intro

No documentation, transclusions, or incoming links. This looks like article content. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:21, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Linum

No transclusions. Created in 2011. Nominated in 2016 and withdrawn for further work, but here we are in 2025, and there are still no transclusions. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:20, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Seats in Lok Sabha

No transclusions. Articles like Bharatiya Janata Party are using {{Composition bar}} directly. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:45, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:The Maybes?

Navbox with no transclusions. All articles about this band's albums and singles have been redirected to the main article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:41, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Deadnaming editnotice

No transclusions or documentation. Unclear why it exists. It may be redundant to an existing template. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:39, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Current MP for Barbuda

No transclusions, documentation, or incoming links. The content is just a wikilink. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:38, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I will transclude it. The point of the template is to automatically update wikilinks of political officeholders instead of doing it manually. Many other countries have similar templates. CROIXtalk 15:45, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No transclusions. No incoming links to explain why it was created. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:36, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Regional articles

No transclusions. Created in March 2024. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:35, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's still in progress as I need to update the wiki markup to handle larger calls. There's been interest from others in getting it working too. I haven't had time to work on it lately, but it shouldn't be deleted. Your Friendly Neighborhood Sociologist ⚧ Ⓐ (talk) 15:45, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Move to draft namespace, or the user namespace. A year is more than enough time to work on a template in the template namespace. Gonnym (talk) 18:01, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
