Template:Infobox CornishTown

Template:Infobox CornishTown (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This template is a POV fork of Template:Infobox England place. It has been used to promote the belief that Cornwall should not be part of England. --Alan Pascoe 23:32, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Template:Indo-Iranian-speaking

Template:Indo-Iranian-speaking (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Delete The template is very empty because "..speaking-nations" templates categorized with an offical language but this template is categorize nations where the language speak, according this template what is next? English speaking nations template with 250 countries? Zaparojdik (talk · contribs) 01:19 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Keep There are many "..speaking-nations" templates such as Template:Turkic-speaking, that you yourself created and maintain, which proves that this is a POV nomination. --ManiF 23:59, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Template:A week from today

Template:A week from today (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

As said on the template, it is useless. It has been made redundant by ParserFunctions. This just puts unecessary load on the servers. ><RichardΩ612 17:11, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Template:Tycoon series

Template:Tycoon series (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This template does not list a series of computer games, but rather any number of computer games that have the word "tycoon" in their title but are otherwise unrelated, and published by a variety of software houses. This is simply not a meaningful grouping; it should either be deleted or pruned to smaller templates that only contain a single actual series each. (Radiant) 17:09, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Template:1931-32Scudetto

Template:1931-32Scudetto (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Unused and doesn't seem to have any real use. The information can just be added to articles without the need for all these boxes! ><RichardΩ612 16:53, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Also nominating for the same reason:

Template:ULL.CLS

Template:ULL.CLS (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Misleading (it's basicaly just a variation on {{permission}}, but read like a "free use" template simmilar to {{No rights reserved}}). It is also (fortunately) only used on one image. it aserts that "This image is a work of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette Center for Louisiana Studies Center for Cultural and Eco-Tourism. This work is copyrighted, but use is allowed as long as credit is given.". Problem is permission to use alone is not enough to qualify as free content, and furthermore it seems to be based on a permission to use only one particular image (see Image:Louisiana regions map.gif) rater than a blanket policy of the center. --Sherool (talk) 12:07, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Silver Dollar City/SDC stub

Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Silver Dollar City/SDC stub (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I know what you're thinking - why have I brought this here rather than MFD? It isn't a template. Well, its creator seems to think it is, and it's currently being used as a template. And not a stub template either, despite its name. I've no objection to the Silver Dollar City WikiProject - all one member of it - having a template to put on articles about its rides but:

  1. it should work properly (this one doesn't close, so any text placed after it is contained within the template);
  2. it shouldn't be called something "stub", since it isn't a stub template;
  3. it should really BE a template in template space, not a pseudo-attempted-template-page-thing.

As such, I'd suggest that this be fixed so that it works properly, moved to a name like Template:SDC ride, and the current mess be deleted. PS - if it's deemed that this should be at MFD rather than here, feel free to move it there - it really was a toss-up between the two! Grutness...wha? 07:17, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
