Template:Missing

Template:Missing (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Missing information (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Missing information non-contentious (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

There's unquestionably significant overlap amongst this template, {{missing information}}, and {{missing information non-contentious}}. Less clear is how to solve this situation, though I think I can safely suggest we end with no more than two of these. Given how infrequently editors really start talk page discussions regarding maintenance templates, my preference would be to bow to reality by using only {{missing information non-contentious}}, probably at the simple {{missing}} title. But if we really want to try to strongarm editors into best practices, we could just merge {{missing}} and {{missing information}} and call it a day. --BDD (talk) 22:23, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Template:Infobox European Parliament election

Template:Infobox European Parliament election (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

It's useful to me, as it works well in desribing the specifics of EU legislation. But I may be wrong: is there a minimum number of translcusions or another policy based reason that the deletion is based upon? L.tak (talk) 19:51, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Template:Mission County (proposal), California

Template:Mission County (proposal), California (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Peconic County, New York (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

I question the usefulness of this navbox. Per the main article, Mission County proposal, this was a proposed county in California that was sounded and strongly rejected by voters in 2006 (seven years ago). WP:NAVBOX states in its guidelines for a good template: "the subject of the template should be mentioned in every article" and " articles should refer to each other, to a reasonable extent". Looking at Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Mission_County_(proposal),_California and Special:WhatLinksHere/Mission_County_proposal, it clearly does not. The proposed borders are not currently even mention or cited in the Mission County proposal article, so the navbox's criteria of inclusion seems more like unverified content or original research. Navigation boxes are suppose "to facilitate navigation between articles", not necessarily link settlement articles to a topic in which its citizens soundly rejected, and thus unlikely to be practically used. Zzyzx11 (talk) 04:54, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

  • Delete This template is highly misleading, since it doesn't indicate that there is no such place as Mission County. I'm baffled as to why it would be created now; it would at least make sense if it were a relic from 2006 or something. --BDD (talk) 03:05, 13 July 2013 (UTC)
The header could be changed to state "Municipalities and communities of the proposed Mission County, California, United States". As for why it was created now, same reason we haven't deleted the Mission County proposal article: notability is not temporary. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 06:14, 13 July 2013 (UTC)
If you want to invoke WP:NOTTEMPORARY, how about where it says "from time to time, a reassessment of the evidence of notability or suitability of existing articles may be requested by any user via a deletion discussion, or new evidence may arise for articles previously deemed unsuitable." IMO, what actually should happen is that the 1-paragraph Mission County proposal stub article should be merged back into the history or government section of the Santa Barbara County, California article per WP:RECENTISM.

Template:Louisville neighborhoods

Template:Louisville neighborhoods (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Jefferson County, Kentucky (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Louisville neighborhoods with Template:Jefferson County, Kentucky.
Jefferson County and Louisville are coterminous. There is a long standing consensus that county municipalities and community templates are supposed to include towns, census-designated places, and unincorporated communities; they are not supposed to restrict their scope to just incorporated cities. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 01:09, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

  • Oppose. The consolidation of city and county government did not make Louisville disappear. These are still neighborhoods of Louisville. Anyway, the two navbox templates are very large; the main effect of merging them would be to make the resulting template less useful than either of the existing templates. --Orlady (talk) 05:00, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
  • Oppose. These templates appear to serve different purposes. If the county one is supposed to include a lot of what's in the neighborhoods one, but not the original Louisville neighborhoods, that would wipe out a lot of information. Perhaps what is called for is using information from the neighborhoods template in the county one, to make it complete as you suggest. Stevie is the man! 09:58, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
My understanding it that the scope of the neighborhood template is the whole city-county, not just the old (pre-consolidation) City of Louisville. Am I mastaken? Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 02:04, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup navboxes

Euro U21

Euro U21 is also a youth tournament, so their navboxes are unnecessary. Sub-article about squads such as 2011 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship squads are enough to lookup information. If readers want more convenient, you can write additional U21-related information to players' article so the readers will know what tournaments each player competed.

Below are two remaining navboxes of the 2013 edition. Remaining editions' navboxes also be deleted, like here, here and here. Banhtrung1 (talk) 08:32, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

EAFF Championship (formerly Dynasty Cup)

Banana Fingers said:

The competitions for which these squad navboxes were created is a regional competition only, whereas the general consensus at WP:FOOTY is that national team squad navboxes should only be created for continental or global competitions such as the AFC Asian Cup or the FIFA World Cup.
