This infobox used 2 templates for it's display. It was duplicating {{Infobox Television episode}} and all 2 uses of the template have been replaced with the more general template and the showspecific template is no longer in use now. This is part of a larger effort to remove duplicity in episode infoboxes. -- TheDJ (talk • contribs • WikiProject Television) 17:06, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Redundant and unused. Jay32183 03:49, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This was created by a user who later turned out to be a sockpuppet of Willy on Wheels (WP:CSD#G5), so rather than speedying it, I have listed it for deletion here to see if it has any relevance to anyone. It could be deleted under CSD G5 (banned user contribution), but seeing as it is used on a few pages (Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Spamonly), I am unsure of what to do. --sunstar net^talk 12:00, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Go ahead and speedy; there's no need to create a subset of indef blocked users for spammers. -Amarkov moo! 16:04, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - we have block-specific templates for sockpuppets. PSUMark2006 talk | contribs 00:37, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating the four templates above for deletion because none of them seem to be in use and they are all duplicative of Template:Ussc, which is widely used. Each is used to cite to U.S. Supreme Court case with the following format: [Volume] U.S. [Page] ([Year]). I understand that different websites offer the text of the case decisions (e.g., findlaw versus lexis versus cornell), but I think consistency is better and deciding which site to use is already an ongoing debate on the talk page of the widely used Ussc template. And again, since the nominated templates aren't used at all, it's a good sign that there is no need for alternate sites providing the same text. Pygora123 06:41, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete With respect, I do not believe this template is relevant. Tellyaddict^{Editor review!} 16:38, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep These are good templates and could be used in many university related articles, definitely a bunch to keep!Tellyaddict^{Editor review!} 11:35, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, useful templates - much tidier than the UK university template. Universities are often classified by regionality. Bob talk 11:46, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For navigation, I think that the UK-wide template is much more useful as it links together all of the universities in the UK. When looking at universities, I think that people want to look at other universities outside the region of the one they are currently looking at, for example those in the major cities or in the top ten (The Times top ten are in seven different regions), and regional navigation limits this. The 'list of universities in...' lists group the universities by region (the only transclusion before nomination for all of these apart from one), and can contain much more relevant information. mattbr³⁰ 12:40, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. {{Universities in the United Kingdom}} does appear more useful. Though it looks crowded, regions can be re-instated in that if there is consensus (see old revision). Pomte 10:31, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I would hate to see a {{Universities in the United States}} template, because that would fill up pages. Instead, either these regional templates should have a wikilink to the big one, or {{Universities in the United Kingdom}} needs to be deleted instead if any template must be deleted. This big template is too crowded to be of much use on any article pages, though it could be linked to by wikilinks from the regional ones, much like how many templates involved in U.S. television wikilink to each other directly.
