- Template:Pete Hegseth (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Very similar to the sidebar that was deleted from this January 26. Contains only links to two articles outside the main subject. Everything else is to an article of little relevance or article sections. Not useful for navigation. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 19:30, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Comment maybe an admin who can see
{{Pete Hegseth series}}
can judge if this should just be marked{{db-g4}}

- This navbox was not previously deleted. Two different templates. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 19:34, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- The navbox was proposed to be deleted on Jan 26, but was not until Feb 2. Rochambeau1783 (talk) 19:38, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Template:Pete Hegseth series is not Template:Pete Hegseth. Template:Pete Hegseth is the current nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 19:42, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- It appears their content + reason for deletion would be the roughly same? (Does g4 not apply there as well?) Tule-hog (talk) 20:07, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- No. It says "as a page that was previously deleted via a deletion discussion, is substantially identical to the deleted version, and any changes do not address the reasons for which the material was deleted." This navbox was not nominated before. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:31, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

- Delete. Not enough unique articles specifically about Hegseth. --woodensuperman 08:54, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

- Template:Warren Doane (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Contains no links to articles. A complete sea of red. Very unuseful. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 19:26, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Delete/draftify per nom. If all entries are not notable enough (or yet to be created), hard to see why the template should exist. @Maher27777 perhaps the intention was also to create Warren Doane and some of these film articles? Tule-hog (talk) 19:30, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Are two blue links enough (for another template)?Maher27777 (talk) 20:26, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- WP:EXISTING implies red links are somewhat acceptable for filmographies. Just taking recent ongoing TFDs Pete Hegseth and Footer Asian Games Champions Shooting Mixed 10 metre air pistol team, it seems 2 links is generally not enough. Tule-hog (talk) 21:05, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- WP:NENAN suggests a "rule of five" articles before a navbox is appropriate. --woodensuperman 08:55, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

- Template:2001 UCI Track Cycling World Championships (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Only one transclusion on the topic article. WP:NENAN. Provides no navigation. –Aidan721 (talk) 18:44, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

- Template:Robot City (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
It is supposed to navigate on novel series. No items to navigate: all novels arenonnotable and. either no link, or redirect to authors --Altenmann >talk 16:52, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

- Template:Dontmerge (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
No longer used and I believe it does not serve any purpose any more as all usages were substituted (WP:TFD#REASONS, "[t]he template is not used, ... and has no likelihood of being used."
). ~ Rusty meow ~ 16:49, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Userfy/delete Appears to be an editor's opinion on something, so maybe salveage the text for them. No need to be in template namespace though. Tule-hog (talk) 19:16, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Userfy to user:Robert McClenon/templates/dontmerge this never should have been in template space, it is a personal boilerplate response for a particular user -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 03:33, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
- Userfy per above. / RemoveRedSky [talk] [gb] 15:03, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
- Delete - This appears to have been a mistake on my part. I apparently intended to use it as an AFC comment, but did not put in the necessary stuff to make it an AFC comment. There is no point in userfying it because it isn't needed in 2025. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:51, 19 February 2025 (UTC)
- Delete per creator. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 23:11, 19 February 2025 (UTC)
- Comment - I see what I was doing, which was sort of a clever mistake. If I inserted the template in a discussion, since it is substituted by a bot, it would expand to the text in the template. This had to do with issues that were being discussed in 2019. I think it was an odd experiment on my part, and I am not sure whether to say it has served its purpose or to say it was a mistake. It should still be deleted. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:40, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: couldn't this just be speedied per WP:G7 now? ~ Rusty meow ~ 04:02, 21 February 2025 (UTC)
- I think so. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:29, 22 February 2025 (UTC)

WP:NENAN The Banner talk 02:19, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 23:11, 19 February 2025 (UTC)
- Comment - This is a team that won an inter-county championship. The problem appears to be that the players have not yet been created. Did the nominator, or anyone, think of suggesting to the creator (who is so prolific on this subject that he will probably get round to making them eventually) that he could keep the template outline as a subpage in his userspace until that happens? That way the effort put into compiling the template is not lost and it is still possible for the creator (or even other editors) to view the template if he wants to use them to work on a player's biography. I note that NENAN, which is the only rationale offered by the nominator, states the following on the "rule of five": "
are there presently at least five articles (not counting the primary article) on which your navbox will be used? (For instance, five books or films in a series; five singles or albums for a music article; five products by a common company; five members of a common group such as a band, comedy troupe, etc.) If not, then you probably don't need a navbox just yet.
". This template does not have enough articles, yet. But there is potential for others. --Gaois (talk) 00:35, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
