The result of the discussion was No consensus * Pppery * it has begun... 00:57, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No article about this team. No mention of the team in Composite rules shinty–hurling The Banner talk 23:48, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a link for the community consensus? OSE (I know) but... this is not the practice I am seeing across a wide range of sports, with Scotland no exception. And this seventh place and this eighth place I found at random as I was typing are presumably quite far from non-winning? I've even just found a tenth and a thirteenth place... when I was only looking for second. So it would be interesting to learn about where/when this decision was made. For instance, if it was many years ago, what has caused the delay in deleting the linked examples and all the others that can be accessed through the categories? Whereas if the decision was made yesterday, it would be understandable that so many templates had yet to be cleared away. The absence of details on the community consensus just leads to uncertainty and, well, lack of verifiability. --Gaois (talk) 23:48, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • The main difference is that are all templates related to major tournaments, the highest level of their sports. But the shinty series is not a major tournament and is even passed over by most top hurling/camogie players. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a strong argument. The Banner talk 14:03, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      • I did not intend it as an argument for keep, or an argument for anything really. I mentioned OSE first specifically to pre-empt that. It was a response to the mention of community consensus and wondering where/when this was decided. The reply given does not answer that question. It is a pity. It should not be difficult to include a link to the community consensus that is claimed. How else to verify it?
Even then I am doubtful that at least one example I included is the highest level of its sport. The Rugby League Four Nations appears to have begun in 2009 and I can find nothing after 2016. It is described by Wikipedia in the past tense. It seems to have a similar history to the Shinty–Hurling International Series, if not less, since the Shinty–Hurling International Series happened a few months ago when, if you are not aware, Aidan McCarthy (shortly after winning the 2024 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship final) scored the equaliser and Eoin Cody (of Kilkenny, another team at the highest level of the sport) scored a hat-trick.
Besides which, many navboxes from "the highest level of their sports" have been nominated in recent weeks ("NENAN"ed basically, that has been the extent of the deletion rationale for some of them). We could say this one might not be the highest level but then we could say that others were. I am struggling therefore to understand all the gaps and contradictions. But mostly eager to read the discussion that brought about the community consensus. --Gaois (talk) 00:48, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Navigation is redundant to {{The Weeknd songs}} as it as well links to all the songs from the album that have articles. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 20:34, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, just here to say about the template; I was merely taken in by the previous template made by someone for Kamikaze (Eminem's studio album) and I had thought about replicating it for other albums (so I went on to make just that; for Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP 2, and now this; The Weeknd's Hurry Up Tomorrow. Well in hindsight, me purely wanting to add something just werent able to establish myself the realization that it was wholly redundant because... yes, I just added navigation on the infobox itself... Was about to plan on making this template for Eminem's recent album, The Death of Slim Shady, until I received word that all my work was nothing but redundancy.
So if there's anything I can do, well I can make it right (you can ask me to blank it), otherwise, anyone who has the power to delete pages, they have my blessing to remove it. ROBLOXGamingDavid (talk) 03:47, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No article about this team. Not mentioned in the given backlink (2024 Fitzgibbon Cup) The Banner talk 14:19, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP: I have added a Team of the Year section (see 2024 Fitzgibbon Cup#Team of the Year) and put in a suitable link on teh Template.CorkMan talk 16:35, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you create low-quality templates about teams without own article or mention, to improve them only after you are called out on it? I leave it to the admins to decide if this team (with no own article) is relevant enough for its own template. The Banner talk 16:48, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, admittedly, many of the templates are low quality or attract a niche level of interest. Not every template on Wikipedia has a corresponding article of its own. Many templates link to a broader article, particularly when it comes to sporting articles. This has been the case with many of the templates that I created. Over the last few months you have proposed the deletion of many of the templates that I have created over the years. The reason I improved these templates after "being called out" is because I have an interest in preserving these templates. Many have been in existence for many years and offer vital information, albeit to a niche audience. Rather than being "called out", I am merely offering an alternative view to yours as to why the template should not be deleted.CorkMan talk 00:12, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Single-use template which does no computation. Wikitext is more understandable if we don't use this template. Therefore, subst and delete this self-operating napkin. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 07:11, 12 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: category namespace templates like this are actually much more useful then manual text, as it just requires copy/pasting these into new pages and everything is handled. This specific one is less helpful as it lacks documentation and features. Gonnym (talk) 10:37, 12 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I agree wholeheartedly that in general these templates are helpful. I think this specific one is not. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 05:08, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Neither Neddyseagoon nor CJLL Wright have edited in years. If they were the only ones who used it, it can safely be deleted. Best, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 23:36, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
