Template is

WP:REDNOT. This is a navigation box, but a whole section was 100% redlinks. Redlinks or no redlinks, the cases are not complete and the choices of the editor who created the template. ...William 19:13, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply

Keep - There is absolutely no cherrypicking. The intent of the template is to include every single U.S. Supreme Court decision that applies the
WP:REDNOT issue was not resolved in his favor. Four users agreed that the template complies with that policy; he was the only one who did not. When he alludes to "previous versions of the template," what he refers to is the template as it existed before his intervention in nuking half of it. In fact, he even reverted it to the crippled version before nominating it for deletion (if he thinks even his preferred version deserves to be deleted, then that would seem to indicate the reasonableness of leaving the full version for the length of this discussion...). If he persists in revert warring against the consensus, a full version of the template, as advocated by those users who don't want to delete it, can be seen here.

Comment - Rename at end of TfD if kept - Should probably be "United States criminal due process". No comment on the discussion otherwise. --Izno (talk) 21:03, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - After reviewing the history of the template, I found no
WP:REDNOT was against the nominator, and the reversion was against the discussion as I understood it. I concur that a rename may be appropriate once this discussion is closed. GregJackP Boomer! 02:33, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply

Comment if this is kept, it should be renamed. {{US criminal due process}} would indicate this only concerns the US. Due process is not a concept restricted to the US. 70.49.127.65 (talk) 04:12, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The template appeared to me to be about US cases only. Additional cases would seem out of scope. --Izno (talk) 15:15, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
"Criminal due process" is not a US only topic. 70.49.127.65 (talk) 03:33, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's not, but this template is US only. I suggest {{

Precisely as Donde states. The template would become unwieldy and tangential to any country's cases on due process if all cases about due process were included.

On the name, "United States" and "criminal due process" should be in the title, and United States shouldn't be shortened (to avoid potential ambiguation, though I don't expect that to be necessary). Don't care on the point otherwise. --Izno (talk) 23:39, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I don't know what the issue with red links is. If you don't like seeing the red links, start writing some articles. This template covers a particular encyclopedic topic. Over time, it may make sense to re-purpose some of this content into standalone articles (I worry about how many criminal due process cases there have been and whether this template will become unwieldy), but for now I don't see any reason to delete the template. --MZMcBride (talk) 22:20, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I don't see the point of deleting it. Editing would suffice if there is dispute about what cases to include. And I agree, the redlinks are good because they encourage article creation.

Keep, obviously and

snowily

. The template provides useful navigational, organizational and categorizational service, which is the point of a navigation template of this sort. It is no more OR than any other nav template, or for that matter, the practice of categorization itself. The REDLINK issue is a separate content issue that has apparently been decided separately -- as it should be: content disputes are not settled in deletion discussions.

As a separate matter, I agree the template is misnamed, and should be given a name that indicates that its scope is US-only. A number of good suggestions on the new name are above; I don't express a preference. TJRC (talk) 05:17, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The current algorithm used by the template to detect if a user is an IP or an account is that it checks whether {{BASEPAGENAME}} with all letters in lowercase matches {{BASEPAGENAME}} with all letters uppercased. Since IPv4 addresses contain only numbers, the two match and the template detects it as an IP. However with this algorithm, some IPv6 addresses would be detected as registered users (because they may contain letters) and the only way to solve this would be by using regular expression matches, which are not supported by any of the magic words and parser functions installed on Wikipedia, so delete the template to avoid any confusion. jfd34 (talk) 12:22, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
