Unused stub templates without associated stub categories corresponding to former Moroccan regions abolished last year. All stubs previously tagged with these templates have been resorted into the stub categories corresponding to the new regions. Cobblet (talk) 22:37, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All 4Minute single articles were merged to album articles last year, so all the links in this template are redirects. The albums links are already in Template:4Minute, so this one is redundant. Random86 (talk) 20:41, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, we only use separate navboxes for singles discographies if there are so many it would make the main album navbox unwieldy. Even if all of these had their own articles still, it's not big enough to warrant being separate. Zeke, the Mad Horrorist (Speak quickly) (Follow my trail) 05:02, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Three entries, no overall series page nor a need for one. Last entry released in 2001, no real hope for expansion. I've amended the pages so that they each contain a reference to each other, which can be tweaked if necessary but regardless serves the role of this navbox.

WP:NENAN bears mentioning here. Zeke, the Mad Horrorist (Speak quickly) (Follow my trail) 18:36, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply

Propose merging Template:OnGoogleEarth with Template:OnGoogleMaps.
Functionally identical templates with aesthetic improvements to OnGoogleMaps being the only difference. Neither are widely used, but one could be potentially useful. fredgandt 16:26, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template is obsolete: all bar one of its entries have since been redirected to the article about the band, and the remaining entry is a good candidate for PROD or redirect as it is a non-notable EP by a non-notable band containing no sources whatsoever. I can't notify the template's creator as he has long since been blocked for "misogynistic and racist remarks". Richard3120 (talk) 16:14, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. There's no need for a template that only links the main article and a prodded EP (and contains four redirects and four non-links). jonkerz ♠talk 19:28, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Deprecated template with only three transclusions from a long-since merged project. This is already a wrapper, so it makes sense to substitute the three transclusions and then delete. ~ RobTalk 16:01, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All completely unused, and spot-checking shows that the articles listed in these navboxes already have other navboxes to nearby cities and towns on the page. ~ RobTalk 15:57, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete, better to use categories for this type of navigation. Frietjes (talk) 16:41, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Freitjes & Rob. At best, templates would fail
    WP:NENAN due to having too few links to be useful, and at worst would be so clunky that a navbox can't offer a logical progression from one included topic to the next. Zeke, the Mad Horrorist (Speak quickly) (Follow my trail) 21:38, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply

WP:SNOWBALL keep.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  17:17, 27 April 2016 (UTC) (non-admin closure)[reply

This is a passive agressive tempate. Placing any kind of message on a user's page that implies they have been hit with a physical object is not funny. There are lots of people out there in the world who have been hit with things, especially women and those in vulnerable positions, and for them to get one of these is not going to be particularly funny. I think this is agreat example of the overwhelmingly male Wikipedia population of editors missing the underlying agressive nature of the message. Is it that difficult to come up with templates that connote something less violent? A pie-- I could handle a pie. Politicians get hit with pies all the time. But a giant trout? Grow up. HappyValleyEditor (talk) 05:29, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Right! Stop that!
It's far too silly!
Don't take this too seriously. Another user just wants you to know something you said crosses their boundaries of sensibility.

The
WP:HUMOR page says "These pages contain material which is kept because the contents are considered humorous. They are not intended, nor should they be used, for any research or serious use". As well as this, many humorous pages and templates show "... Do not take it seriously". However, you are taking the template seriously by worrying about the unhumority and aggression to other users.
