Template:Coordinate
- Template:Coordinate (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Redundant to {{coord}} (and to {{coord missing}}). Recent discussion at WT:GEO decided by consensus that {{coord}} is the preferred coordinates template. {{coordinate}}'s documentation states "Currently not implemented.".

- Delete Since it's currently deprecated, it's not going to get used, so it doesn't serve any purpose to keep it. {{Coordinate}} is a step too far, too soon, before we've even cleaned up the existing mess of at least twelve different geocoordinate templates: as far as the en: Misplaced Pages is concerned, it's an example of second system syndrome. One day, in a year or two, we may want something like it, but it's more likely to be implemented by progressive evolution of {{coord}}, without a need for a whole new syntax. {{coord}} is a kludge; but at least it's a single and currently-used kludge that is moderately well implemented and understood by our data reusers (notably Google), which can be used as a bottleneck for resolving problems as we evolve the system, without having a flag day. -- The Anome (talk) 19:59, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
Power templates

Same reason why all power templates such as {{auto hp}} already been agreed to be deleted. Completely redundant and not as complete as {{convert}}. {{Convert}} covers all occurrences of these measurements and is far more widely used. There is nothing these templates do that {{convert}} can't do, but many things these templates can't do that {{convert}} can. roguegeek (talk·cont) 18:14, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
