Template:Infobox Asterix (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to {{Infobox book}} - make it a wrapper? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:59, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Make wrapper I can see the use of having a uniform style for the Asterix books (given there are so many of them), but agree that it should wrap Infobox Book, instead of the generic Infobox. Bluap (talk)

• Should be replaced by Template:Infobox graphic novel, which is better suited for European comics (even those that aren't technically "graphic novels"). See Destination Moon (Tintin) for an example of a similar comic book that uses it. Fram (talk) 09:52, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Better suited if you're happy with the ownership issues in the comics templates. I'd rather we added support for graphic novels to {{infobox book}} in the long run and gradually migrated them to it. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 12:42, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ownership issues are hardly a reason to keep or delete a template, or not to merge a template to the closest related template. Please don't mix conduct and content discussions. Fram (talk) 11:00, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox Bangladesh railway station (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to {{Infobox station}}. Only 12 transclusions. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:41, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is a copy of {{Infobox Indian railway station}}. Do you want to nominate that one as well? Secondarywaltz (talk) 23:00, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you; done (it only has 121 transclusions). Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:06, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Cullman City Schools System (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

does not navigate much, and the two articles are already well linked. Frietjes (talk) 19:36, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Statistics is not what a navbox is for. That stuff needs to be cited in article text. Tijfo098 (talk) 21:48, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Crypto testbox2 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

unused template test. Frietjes (talk) 19:35, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Rename to Template:Cryptography stream/sandbox, since this is the template sandbox for Template:Cryptography stream -- 76.65.131.248 (talk) 21:38, 25 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Coord review (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Blank template, and given quite extensive debate unlikely to be used. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:37, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Questions What discussion? It doesn't even have a talk page. Ego White Tray (talk) 12:24, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The debate was on the talk pages associated with the relevant co-ordinate projects Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:06, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Geographical coordinates/Archive 28#Template:Coord unsourced and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Geographical coordinates#Thoughts?. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:54, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Blank template which aroused controversy at the time of creation, and currently serves no useful purpose. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:54, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Sfan00 IMG created this and now has nominated it for deletion. Why not {{db-author}} and get it over with? Secondarywaltz (talk) 23:07, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

was not speedied because I wasn't the sole contributor Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:03, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think my edit was significant here, so db-author would apply in my opinion. Frietjes (talk) 17:43, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
