  • Keep It's considered an important achievement for players in the NFL. We have similar template such as Template:NFL 2000 Yard Rushers. Not much harm with this one and it's not arbitrary or made up by the creator. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:16, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is only directly used in a half dozen navboxes, which really don't need a specific template to contain a half dozen links. Subst and delete is the recommendation here. Izno (talk) 19:42, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete without subst. Template:Lasers should handle laser types. Gonnym (talk) 06:58, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Works for me. Izno (talk) 08:10, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This is used in various laser navbox templates, such as Template:Gas lasers. Blindly deleting without subst is not an option. I reverted the ill-advised change in formatting, which affected all the pages on which it is included. I think this proposal needs more thought, and perhaps a review of all the laser templates. I'm no fan of navboxes, but using a template to keep common text the same across a set of navboxes is a sensible use of the template feature. --Srleffler (talk) 03:36, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I know that it is used in various laser navbox templates, I firmly oppose that design which is why I said "Delete without subst". Template:Lasers is the correct place for those links. Gonnym (talk) 07:15, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose deletion, for the reason I explained above. --Srleffler (talk) 03:36, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:NUMERO clearly states do not use the symbol №. Gonnym (talk) 09:16, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply
]

@Nigej: Like {{xt}}? Not allowed in project space. Also there are even limited exceptions to the MOS rule. When you are directly quoting, for example, or you're quoting a text in Russian, which uses this symbol regularly, it is even on their keyboard. Replacing with "No." in a Cyrillic text alleged to have come from the Soviet Union would make no sense. Psiĥedelisto (talkcontribs) please always ping! 14:20, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep—a template does not need to follow the MOS. Plenty of our templates are made for talk pages and project pages. This is a useful template and you can track its inclusions and remove them where inappropriate. Psiĥedelisto (talkcontribs) please always ping! 14:18, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Can you point to where templates are excluded from following the MoS? Gonnym (talk) 09:39, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 22:33, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - why not just add a namespace check that displays a warning if used in an article, like {{
    MOS:ACCESS. I don't see why it should be deleted just for MOS reasons, though I guess an argument that it's also unnecessary for discussions could be made. eviolite (talk) 03:43, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply

  • comment, adding namespace restriction like {{
    tq}} seems like a reasonable compromise, but deleting it due to low usage seems reasonable as well. Frietjes (talk) 18:09, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete. This template has existed for almost two years, and it has almost no transclusions (I count three actual usages). Each of those transclusions would be better served by writing "No." as recommended by MOS. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:20, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
