These templates simply take text off the page. This year of templates is complete; the information is static and will not change (since it's clearly not 2005 any more). The templates are transcluded on no more than two pages each, so I see no reason why they shouldn't just be subst'd and deleted. Primefac (talk) 03:19, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: The one's with one transclusion are entirely uncontroversial, but there's a potential case to be made for keeping complex article text on two articles in a template. Relisting to see if anyone cares one way or the other.

Template:AzB player (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

unused in articles. if we are going to deploy this, we should really refactor it to use LUA to avoid the template-based looping. Frietjes (talk) 22:40, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete (as author). It's been broken for some time, which is why it's no longer used. The site in question no longer works the way this template is coded to generate URLs for it, and the template is no longer badly needed even if its output were easily fixable. The template was created because the current-year player profile did not link to previous years' pages on the same pro player. The site now links all available previous-years' player data from the current year profile, so all that's needed in our article on a player is a a single link to the current profile page, with no more looping to generate past-year links. We don't really need a template for that, as far as link-generation complexity goes.
That said, every modern notable pro (and many top am) pool and carom billiards (but not snooker) players have profiles at AZBilliards, and it is one of the top three professionally edited non-snooker cue sports publications, along with Billiards Digest and Pool & Billiard Magazine, which also have websites with player profiles. What we might want to do is create player infobox parameters for these profile pages (which are regularly updated with tournament stats and such, for living players). This would be similar in effect and purpose to links to different organizations' breed standards in infoboxes like {{Infobox dog breed}}, and OMIM (etc.) medical codes in {{Infobox disease}}. It would consolidate the templating of "just the facts" external resources into one place in the WP site code. A maintenance problem with these profile links is that the sites' databases and the URLs that address them change over time, and if people are manually adding links to them in the ext. links section (or otherwise in some non-programmatic fashion), this will result in potentially thousands of dead links that have to be manually updated. So, while this particular template is basically dead, we'll need to template something like this somewhere at some point. I don't have time to adapt it right now, so go ahead and delete this broken one. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ≼ 08:42, 29 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete These are all part of a feature of the "automated taxobox system" that is no longer operating, namely the automatic generation of child taxa. At one time, templates with names of the form "Template:Child taxa/..." were generated by Taxobot, and the higher numbered templates listed above used these to generate lists of taxa. Taxobot hasn't operated for the last five years, and so these templates are not needed and can be deleted. (As can all the "child taxa" templates, of which there are about 10,500.)

Redundant template, only has one possible transclusion on club page, which I've replaced with the contents (updated). Having a squad instead of the contents on the club page only hinders editors as it is more cumbersome to edit, and doesn't have multiple calls anyway, so nothing gained from template usage.

We have a variety of tags for articles that advertise a subject, including {{db-spam}} (blatant promotional content), {{peacock}} (terminology being used), {{autobiography}} (spammy BLP created by subject), and {{advert}} (everything else).

Keep. I use this occasionally to blank sections during speedy deletions, to indicate to the closing admin (and any unfortunate reader) that although the latest version might look like just five badly written paragraphs, there was actually a section of spam links at the bottom, and that I've chosen to deny the page creator a few hours' worth of traffic and spidering from it. Blanking whole pages is also useful for the type of spam article where the title is a phone number and the page content is the same string of search keywords repeated a hundred times. I don't think this template quite duplicates {{Courtesy blanked}} (no courtesy is happening), but it should be changed to be the same colour. --McGeddon (talk) 08:57, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Given that we're only guessing the source of the person's confusions, certainly by default it should suggest all of the three. --Nat Gertler (talk) 21:18, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose A common template for guesses could be created but I don't think these three should be merged. Some posters do mention Google, Yahoo or Bing, and if they don't then I often make Google and Yahoo searches to see whether their results have the reported problem. Bing searches don't give such boxes for me, maybe because I'm in Denmark. I sometimes write a reply for a specific poster and add something like "See Template:HD/GKG for our stock reply to such posts." {{HD/YKG}} copied the formulations from {{HD/GKG}} but Yahoo only has a general feedback link, at least currently, so the templates should probably also differ more than now. I don't know what Bing displays. PrimeHunter (talk) 21:37, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
