Template:Elections in Delaware sidebar (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundent with Template:Elections in Delaware footer, they cover the exact same subject making having both unnecessary. If it is determined that this one should stay and the footer is deleted then I am okay with that, but one of them needs to go.

Comment There are similar redundant sidebar and footer templates for every state in the United States. It might be better to expand this discussion to encompass all of them. Rocfan275 (talk) 05:13, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I considered it but decided to hold off on a bulk nomination to see how this one goes Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 05:33, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. I do think a wider discussion should be held. It does seem overkill to have a sidebar that has hundreds of links when navboxes are much better for that purpose for a topic like elections in a specific area of the world. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 01:30, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Syntaxhighlight (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

A simple wrapper around the <syntaxhighlight> that adds no functionality. Used only ~800 times (~200 times with the shortcut "sxhl"), and can just be subst'd away. Using this template instead of the plain extension tag makes the experience in VisualEditor significantly worse, as the extension has native VE support. ed g2s (talk) 16:26, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The fact that people have independently chosen to use this 800 times us sufficient evidence that they find a wrapper to be useful. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 22:07, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per above. / RemoveRedSky ^{[talk] [gb]} 17:44, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, especially for the {{sxhl}} redirect. I always type "Syntaxhighlight" incorrectly and have to fix it. Having this template, which I didn't know about, will be very useful. – Jonesey95 (talk) 03:19, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This is a wrapper around {{#tag:syntaxhighlight}} not <syntaxhighlight>. I type {{sxhl}} to force transclusion of nested templates, something <syntaxhighlight> can't do alone. 216.58.25.209 (talk) 15:11, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Graph color (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

No transclusions. Created in 2021. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:14, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this helper template, now that the merge is wrapping up. {{Gcolor}} was used by an older version of {{Pie chart}}. As noted during the recent decision to merge that template with the newer Module:Piechart, this helper template is no longer needed. The following subpages are also no longer needed:

Template:2023 Joe McDonagh Cup Team of the Year (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

No article on the team, seems to be another "fantasy" team. --wooden superman 09:04, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP: Far from being a "fantasy" team as you call it, this is actually the official team of the year as announced by the Gaelic Athletic Association (see link here to the official GAA website: Carlow to the fore in Joe McDonagh Team of the Year). While not everything needs a navbox, not every navbox needs an article. Reference to the Team of the Year could be added to the existing 2023 Joe McDonagh Cup page if you think that would help? --CorkMan talk 23:54, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You are wrong. Every navigation template needs an article to show where this is about. And the "team of the year" of a second tier tournament? The notability of that team is highly questionable. The Banner talk 01:58, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
