September 1

Template:Female Formula One drivers

Template:Female Formula One drivers (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to List of female Formula One drivers Spyder_Monkey (Talk) 23:31, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Template:Northwest Conference (Iowa)

Template:Northwest Conference (Iowa) (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The Northwest Conference is defunct. All teams in conference have moved to other leagues . Vycl1994 (talk) 23:14, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Template:Bloody days

Template:Bloody days (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Navigation template without real use, only linking to other completely unrelated bloody days and not to any "real" articles. Earlier removed in 2007. The Banner talk 22:06, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

I suppose this might be of use to someone trying to look up an event who remembers it was dubbed bloody and named for a day of the week, but doesn't remember which day of the week. Such a reader who can manage to get "1969 northe" or "2008 finan" into the search box would have an easier time of it than one who relies on this template and the lists of bloody events.


Template:Infobox indian current

Template:Infobox indian current (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Infobox typhoon current (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Infobox hurricane current (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Infobox indian current and Template:Infobox typhoon current with Template:Infobox hurricane current.
These 3 templates do the exact same job in conveying the latest forecast information from the warning centres, as a result i propose that they get merged together and under the name of infobox hurricane current or infobox cyclone current since they are redundant to each other.

Template:Animacy hierarchy

Template:Animacy hierarchy (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Article content. Subst and delete. — Lfdder (talk) 11:59, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Template:Languages of the 8th Schedule to the Indian constitution

Template:Languages of the 8th Schedule to the Indian constitution (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Merge into the two articles it's transcluded in and delete. Content shouldn't be tucked away in Template space. — Lfdder (talk) 11:38, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Template:ISO639

Template:ISO639 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

A macro from 2009 that's not seen any use. — Lfdder (talk) 11:29, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

We don't need a template just to type out "ISO 639-1 language code" for us. — Lfdder (talk) 22:09, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
  • IMO, the template should not be transcluded on disambiguation pages. WP:MOSDAB#Images and templates pretty clearly discourages such use. The current language makes even substituting the template dubious as the form is not typical for a disambiguation page entry. It's value elsewhere seems dubious. olderwiser 23:03, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
  • Delete does this do anything except provide boilerplate text? It doesn't seem to. If it converted an ISO 639 code to its equivalent name, or vice versa, that'd be useful. (and half replicate some of the other templates) -- 76.65.128.222 (talk) 02:56, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
    • The use of boilerplate text is one way of providing consistency across articles of a similar type (referring to the archived discussion link I provided under FYI above). --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 13:47, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

Template:Capital Line

Template:Capital Line (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Delete unused template with test edits. Probably created to replace an existing navbox, diagram, or list, the creator hasn't been very vocal about his proposed changes. 117Avenue (talk) 07:16, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Template:Equivalent

Template:Equivalent (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Delete this is functioning as a reference template using wikipedia as a reference, which isn't allowed per WP:RS. Instead all instance of this template should be replaced by the talk page template {{translated}}, and moved from the article page to the talk page. 76.65.128.222 (talk) 03:21, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
