I see only two pages on which this template could be used, namely
- Keep. One of the points of templates is to ensure that multiple uses of the same information doesn't go out of synch (particularly when formatted). AlgaeGraphix (talk) 00:07, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
- By that logic, then similar templates should exist for the other New Flyer models, the Xcelsior should not be the only one with a template. It doesn't make sense to keep only this one. Eisthefifthletter (talk) 18:31, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
- Delete Low potential for reuse, and I am generally skeptical that we need to worry about 'out of sync' when the topic is so niche. --Izno (talk) 20:12, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
- substitute in New Flyer Xcelsior and delete. Frietjes (talk) 16:27, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

Completely pointless template that is a textbook example of
- Delete: Per 86.23, not helpful. There are a bunch of templates that already deal with country names; unless this template is provably useful like {{CountryPrefixThe}}, and does something that cannot be done with any existing template, it should be removed. User:GKFXtalk 18:32, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
- delete and salt per the rfd, easily confused with India. Frietjes (talk) 20:34, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - It's actually worse than the nomination makes it out to be. The purpose is not just to expand common country abbreviations, it is any "common" abbreviation. The template is not useful. -- Whpq (talk) 02:22, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
- The extra functionality was added after I nominated it here, but I agree it makes it worse - now it's ambiguous as well - should "geo" refer to Georgia, geometry, geography, geology … . The intention seems to have been to "reduce the wikitext size" of pages (based on edits like this) but that's pointless at best, and probably actively harmful, as the effects on load time and server usage will be orders of magnitude worse for calling dozens of templates with enormous switch statements compared to just having an extra 500 bytes of plain text. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 13:22, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
