Template:Foreign relations of the DPR and LPR

The DPR and LPR were puppet states of Russia and had no foreign relations. Aldij (talk) 12:06, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete They did have recognition from a few other countries, although, looking at Donetsk People's Republic–South Ossetia relations, sourcing doesn't seem to be of the quality you'd want to write good standalone articles that go further than "X officially recognized Y". The navboxes have four and two links respectively, so not great, although there's no objection to recreating them if more articles can be written (hopefully with better sources).

Why not just redirect? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 09:19, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't find anything worthwhile saving in these documentation pages that need to be redirected. These are all the same boilerplate copy/paste versions that have no actual added value. Gonnym (talk) 09:22, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In that case, delete.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  12:55, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Vistula boulevards (Warsaw)

Unused route map. Gonnym (talk) 09:08, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. As its creator I do agree template should be deleted. I've created it as an experiment, in wrong name space, at my beginings in wiki editing. Antoni12345 (talk) 13:30, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subterm and Subdefn

These templates were meant to be visual sub-terms and sub-definitions in structured {{Glossary}}s. They didn't add semantic sub-structuring, only indented their equivalent terms & definitions. They were only used in Waveguide filter#Glossary, but I replaced them with nested {{glossary}}+{{term}}+{{defn}} inside their defining {{defn}}, producing a near-identical indentation, plus semantic structure. They are now unused, and probably shouldn't be used (TemplateStyles on the glossary, or term/defn templates, would satisfy any potential need). the template.  — sbb (talk) 08:42, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Virudunagar–Sengottai line

Unused route map. Gonnym (talk) 09:08, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:TfLstyle

Unused citation template. Gonnym (talk) 09:07, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Charles-Valentin Alkan/doc

Unused. Parent template now uses {{Navbox documentation}}. Gonnym (talk) 09:02, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Challenges

Project hasn't been active around 14 years and usages of this banner are being incorrectly applied to articles that involved "challenges". The dead project has no categories or any usage for this banner. Gonnym (talk) 08:21, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Article Collaboration and Improvement Drive

The project hasn't been active for over a decade, does not have categories or any reason for tagging pages with a banner. Gonnym (talk) 08:09, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Gbq/doc

The {{Gbq}} template was simply a wrapper for {{Quote}} with some specified inline styles (specifically, reduced vertical margins). It was intended for use in structured {{Glossary}}s. It was only ever used correctly once, in Glossary of Brazil investigative terms. All other ~6 uses in article space were used in {{efn}} for condensed spacing (which I replaced with the equivalent {{quote|style="..."}}). I have edited {{Glossary}} to use TemplateStyles, which has allowed the use of {{quote}} inside of glossary {{Defn}} templates to be formatted exactly as {{Gbq}} was formatted. I.e., TemplateStyles has obsoleted the need for the style-only wrapper {{Gbq}} around {{quote}}. {{Gbq}} is now a redirect to {{quote}}. Asking to delete the now-obsolete "/doc" subpage.  — sbb (talk) 08:00, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Mathematical and Computational Biology

This is a task force of Wikipedia:WikiProject Molecular Biology. Replace with {{WikiProject Molecular Biology|computational biology=yes}}. Gonnym (talk) 07:59, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unused already-merged Bio_coatrack et al

Merged into {{coatrack}} since [2]. Their names falsely imply that they will still display a more biology-related notice. In reality, they are just unused redirects. Only mentions are basically Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Template_redirects and other lists. 184.146.170.127 (talk) 03:59, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This should be completely uncontroversial, but from a purely clerical standpoint template redirects should be at RfD and not TfD. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:01, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, though I'll chime in here in favor of delete in case it's not moved/reopened as an RfD. We don't need weird redirects lingering around that are not in actual use.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  12:53, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
