• Template:Wikipedia ads (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Why do you have to convince people to do things via ads, it violates WP:NOTADVERTISING, because wikipedia is not an advertising platform by any means even with itself. I understand why people want to keep it, but still. Kirbyaddict99 (talk) 23:14, 19 April 2018 (UTC) WP:SOCKSTRIKE 03:33, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep these are by and large opt-in templates place on editors own userpages themselves, or by related wikiprojects. This is not "advertising" and is not used to target readers of articles at all. — xaosflux ^Talk 18:05, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Perhaps these ads violate the letter of WP:NOTADVERTISING, but I certainly don't think they violate the spirit of it. I think the project would definitely be worse off for losing the RfA ad, for example. And WP:NOTADVERTISING does say "Non-disruptive statements of opinion on internal Wikipedia policies and guidelines may be made on user pages and within the Wikipedia: namespace, as they are relevant to the current and future operation of the project." So even the policy itself admits that it is not completely black and white. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 01:15, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per above. I don't see the harm in placing these on userpages, wikiprojects, etc. Sro23 (talk) 03:07, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:Dream Team (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Procedural nomination on behalf of Govvy who nominated this at MfD with the rationale:

With all the names being set to merge or redirect it makes this template redundant.

Keep − 8 of the names do not redirect. Bogger (talk) 09:22, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

All the pages on the template currently redirect, except the list of characters page which has been nominated for deletion. The closure of the AfDs ended with a merge recommendation, so now all the pages redirect to the main article. I just redirected them (not merge, as I didn't see any content worth merging as it was all in-universe writing), but the history is still there if someone wanted to take any content and merge it across (but I don't see much value in that). --kelapstick^(bainuu) 14:03, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Template:Fb cl header H&A as it's used, see 2007–08 Football Conference. The first table on this Football Conference page was completely messed up by adding the 'page for deletion' box to the template page, so I've taken the liberty of removing the 'page for deletion' notice from this template's page in the hope that the Football Conference page reverts to its previously healthy state when the caching of the template page is next done (Is that how it works?) There are also lots and lots of other places this template would be very useful in tidying up that type of league table, but I've never got round to doing it... Mmitchell10 (talk) 20:36, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Mmitchell10: (Copy from previous TfD discussion) the point of TfD is to first determine if there is a consensus to eliminate the use of a template and if it is viable to replace it. It doesn't make sense to do numerous edits to convert all the tables if people don't want to convert all the tables - that's is why we have this discussion first. Then once a consensus is there the template is listed in WP:TFDH, where time is given - as much time as needed - for all instances to be removed. The templates are definitely not going to be deleted before the instances are removed. Unlike in other deletion discussions, this discussion ending in delete doesn't mean instant deletion. (origin from Galobtter) Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 02:05, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would say, though, to please make sure to noinclude the deletion tag or select the don't show option in twinkle; as that is causing breakage Galobtter (pingó mió) 05:04, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment from nominator As discussions above, I would like to keep about H&A, and still delete others. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 11:17, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fb cl header H&A should be deleted as well, this type of table should be discussed at WT:FOOTY first, as the standard table does not separate home and and away results. Either way, this could be deleted after merging into Module:Sports table if necessary. S.A. Julio (talk) 13:51, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with you. But we need consensus first. Maybe we need a better solution about H&A templates in WT:FOOTY before renominating. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 08:13, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:SIA-Conversion-Expand (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Set-index articles are very rare, and disambigs are almost never converted to set-indexes. Therefore, this template is a solution looking for a problem. Lojbanist ^{remove cattle from stage} 02:31, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. It is a maintenance-type / cleanup-type tag, used for a while in the past to mark disambiguation pages that should probably be converted to SIA pages. It was/can be useful for disambiguation-focused editors racing through the monthly disambiguation challenge to mark dabs for further thought. Sure, SIA pages are relatively rare, so what? It would be fine for a cleanup category to be entirely empty, we still keep such things. --Doncram (talk) 02:35, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically, currently suggested are:

• Diffusivity
• Alligator lizard
• Bollworm
• Armoured corps
• Boundary commission
• Service dress
• Brown bat
• Military Council
• Battle of Kharkov
• Rat flea
• Western Naval Task Force

It is a decent suggestion for each of those, that the topics should be converted to Set Index Articles. --Doncram (talk) 02:40, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep – I would agree with Doncram. I don't think this falls under WP:BROKE, because there are articles where this template can be usefully applied, even if not many. That can easily change, though, say if someone decides to go through a whole bunch of disambiguation pages in their WikiProject and finds that several can be converted into SIAs. We don't delete templates that have a theoretical application just because they currently don't apply anywhere.--Newbiepedian (talk · C · X! · L) 20:00, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
