*'''Comment''': ], I'm confused by this request. You have requested Largest cities of Israel for deletion, but the way you have worded your request, you say it should be replaced by Largest Israeli cities. This sounds more like a merger request.

Template:Largest cities of Israel

used on only 2 articles and should be replaced by {{Largest Israeli cities}}. There is a precedent for this.Catchpoke (talk) 23:46, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

  • Comment: Catchpoke, I'm confused by this request. You have requested Largest cities of Israel for deletion, but the way you have worded your request, you say it should be replaced by Largest Israeli cities. This sounds more like a merger request. Are the articles in the Largest cities of Israel template included in the Largest Israeli cities? --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 00:03, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Template:Motorways and Trunk Roads in England

Propose merging Template:Motorways and Trunk Roads in England with Template:Motorways in the United Kingdom.
These look like they are closely related, so I wonder whether they could be merged. If not merged, {{Motorways and Trunk Roads in England}} should probably be renamed to {{Highways England}} as that seems to be the actual topic of the navbox (to add more confusion, the headline of the template is neither of those but rather "Strategic road network in England"). 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 16:29, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

  • Delete Motorways and Trunk Roads in England. {{Motorways in the United Kingdom}} has existed for 15 years, covers motorways in the whole UK (not just England), an easy-to-grasp subject with easy-to-grasp subgroups. {{Motorways and Trunk Roads in England}} was created in 2018 and covers all roads in England (not UK) that are maintained by Highways England, grouped by Highways England's own internal management structure. This is a much less obvious subject matter (and subgrouping) which I would suggest is of little interest to most of our readers except for employees of Highways England. So I'd suggest deletion, but if deletion isn't agreed I'd oppose merger as the two templates cover very different subject matters, and rename it "Roads maintained by Highways England". -- Dr Greg  talk  12:04, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
  • Do nothing. The {{Motorways and Trunk Roads in England}} template describes trunk roads in England and who manages them like {{Motorways and Trunk Roads in Wales}} does for Wales. RichardHC, 2 May 2021, 20:27 BST

Template:Contra dance

Navbox which fails the "rule of five" and contains only links that are already present in the articles concerned. User:GKFX 20:09, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

  • (Speaking as someone with subject expertise) It's definitely a remnant of an older era in which sidebar usage wasn't as standardized as it is these days. IAR, I kinda like it, as there are three main contra dance articles, and it makes it a lot easier to navigate between them than just relying on the links in the body. If we wanted to expand rather than delete it, we could add pages like Country Dance and Song Society (umbrella organization for contra dance groups in the U.S.) and Flurry Festival (annual festival with contra dancing as main attraction). I'm also hoping to launch Draft:Money Musk (a specific notable contra dance) at some point. Overall, idk; the whole area is in need of a lot of improvement, and it's hard to tell at this point what the best ultimate structure for it will be. {{u|Sdkb}}20:35, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
  • Delete Wow it's being nominated again for the first time in fourteen years. This is a valid argument for deletion. It's too short to justify keeping it. The articles about form and choreography are linked to the mainspace Contra dance article. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:41, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Template:Infobox African Games Algeria

Following this discussion the meta-templates storing information such as this one were deleted (including those for Algeria at the Olympics, Paralympics, and Aquatics). Not sure how, but this template managed to escape that deletion run, so really all that's necessary is a subst and delete per the precedent set by the previous discussion.
