December 4

Template:Plural form

Propose merging Template:Plural form with Template:Plural form.
Templates both do the same thing and achieve the exact same output text. waddie96 ★ (talk) 13:24, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Brad Pitt

Only three articles. WP:NENAN --woodensuperman 13:08, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Template:Welcomeg/default

Like Welcomeg/new, is also unused and not linked from anywhere, but received some updates a 5 years ago. Like the /new template, we don't need to keep out-of-sync forks like this. Gonnym (talk) 10:07, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Welcomeg/new

While this is probably a subst template so being unused doesn't mean a lot, it's also not linked from anywhere, and while titled "new", was created in 2011 and is completely outdated and out-of-sync with Template:Welcomeg. We don't need forks of the main template. Gonnym (talk) 10:05, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Heavy Moss

Only one album and two notable singles to their name. WP:NENAN --woodensuperman 10:01, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Welcome-to-Wikipedia/doc/ip-option

Unused and unlinked sub-page. Can't find usages with an insource search. Gonnym (talk) 10:00, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:ValidateUP/sandbox/doc

Doc page created 14 years ago with no edits since. Seems this has either been completed or abandoned. Gonnym (talk) 09:56, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:SGP Table/present

Unused sports table. Gonnym (talk) 09:47, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:SPI case status/sandbox/core/doc

Doc page created almost 3 years ago with no edits since. Seems this has either been completed or abandoned. Gonnym (talk) 09:42, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Rapid transit OSM map/Sandbox/doc

tests created in the wrong place. Moved tests to /testcases. Gonnym (talk) 09:40, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Daylight saving active/doc/extended

Now unused after I've copied the data to Template:Daylight saving active/doc. Gonnym (talk) 09:17, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Coord/sandbox2

Previously deleted in 2020, still unused and unlinked from anywhere. Gonnym (talk) 09:12, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It belongs with Module:Coordinates/sandbox2 and is intended to demo sandbox vs sandbox2. Template:Coord gets a bit complex and there has been a long time effort to add additional features to it. I don't think it needs to be deleted, but as was proven the last time it was needed again, it can of course very easily be recreated. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 09:26, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Cite arXiv/doc/new

This "new" documentation (created in 2017) isn't linked from anywhere. If this is needed, it should replace the current /doc page. Gonnym (talk) 09:10, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Cite JTWC/testcases/doc

Tests should be held at the /testcases page, not a /doc page (which isn't a doc page). I've made sure the test appear on the /testcases. Gonnym (talk) 09:08, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Module:User:Anomie/deepToString

Unused sandbox or test module. If the user still wants it move to the user's sandbox per Module:Sandbox to Module:Sandbox/Anomie/module name, else delete. Gonnym (talk) 09:01, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Why randomly change the conventions for naming user module sandboxes? And if there is an actual consensus for that somewhere, you should be proposing a rename rather than a deletion. Anomie⚔ 12:07, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not proposing a rename, I'm proposing deleting an unused module. If the user, in this case, you, still want this, then it should be moved to pseudo userspace in the Module namespace, which I've indicated above. Gonnym (talk) 12:17, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It is in a pseudo-userspace in the Module namespace. Just not the particular pseudo-namespace you prefer. And this one isn't even a sandbox, it's a module intended for use in the Lua debug console. Anomie⚔ 13:12, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Module:User:Anomie/Sandbox

Unused sandbox or test module. If the user still wants it move to the user's sandbox per Module:Sandbox to Module:Sandbox/Anomie/module name, else delete. Gonnym (talk) 09:01, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Not randomly at all. This module is an unused module in the module space and is subject to all other guidelines and procedures, meaning it can be sent to TfD and deleted. Iff the user still wants the module (and so far, they have not stated that), the module should be moved to the pseudo userspace in the Module namespace, which I've indicated above. Gonnym (talk) 12:16, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    You want guidelines and procedures? If Modules could be in the User namespace, this would be handled at WP:MFD which generally doesn't delete established users' subpages just because some busybody thinks they're "unused". But since modules need to be in the Module namespace, we need a convention for "userspace" for people to have their own modules, and pages in that pseudo-userspace should probably be judged under the same criteria as other userspace pages. I also note that the "Module:User:<name>" convention has existed for as long as the "Module:Sandbox/<name>" convention, and has the advantage of covering more than just sandboxes.
