The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Station. ✗plicit 00:03, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:STN with Template:Station.
Not a huge fan of having two templates that do basically the same thing, but with wildly different names (especially with names that are non-obvious). These days I suspect that most stations have a redirect from the alternate capitalisations regardless. Primefac (talk) 16:08, 6 December 2024 (UTC) Hyperbole struck. Primefac (talk) 16:56, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support making {{stn}} a redirect to {{station}}. The merged template should detect lowercase "station" first, before falling back to initial-capitalised "Station". --Minoa (talk) 17:44, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Jeez, didn't even think about that. Will do so regardless of the outcome of the TFD for {{station}}. Primefac (talk) 18:35, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'd be concerned about the number of expensive parser functions that would require. Some pages have well over 100 uses of these templates, so they could easily hit the expensive calls limit depending on what else is on the page unless you use something like {{PROTECTIONEXPIRY}} to do the detection. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 19:53, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's fair. Primefac (talk) 20:45, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac Any objection to putting the merge notice inside <noinclude>...</noinclude>? It breaks the Tokyo Station and Shinjuku Station articles. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 19:07, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose not. I'll just wait for the slew of people bitching about not being notified because of all the people bitching about being notified. Primefac (talk) 20:45, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 23:58, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. I would also support making {{STN}} a redirect to {{station}} per Minoa above. XtraJovial (talk • contribs) 00:33, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, I don't see much benefit (if any) of getting rid of STN. I get that consolodation reduces the maintenance burden but STN hasn't been edited since 2017 because of how simple it is. BLAIXX 03:26, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: with wildly different names: {{STN}} follows logically from the {{stn}} alias. Useddenim (talk) 15:48, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. (Also, I don't think these are "wildly" different; {{station}}'s alias {{stn}} and {{STN}} use the same exact letters, just different capitalization.) – Epicgenius (talk) 01:11, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Having two templates with the same exact letters, just with a different capitalization is a horrible system. Most systems can also be switched from "STN" to their Adjacent Stations module and use the relevant templates. Gonnym (talk) 09:50, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom -MJ (talk) 18:14, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support since the two separate templates are the same text and have the same commands. HarukaAmaranth 07:31, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No preference as long as the surviving option offers easy resolving links to disambiguation pages. The Banner talk 23:22, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate; convert uses of the less common {{Cricket Result}} to use {{Cricket result}}. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 15:42, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Federal Bureau of Investigation

[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗plicit 23:53, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox template which takes a single parameter – |subname= – which affects a single display field in the infobox. It is only used once in mainspace page (National Incident-Based Reporting System), and I highly doubt there are additional articles which would benefit from an all but identical infobox. Indeed, I am struggling to think of a time where an infobox (not a sidebar) can be almost entirely duplicated but not constitute a WP:REDUNDANTFORK.

I think it is more sustainable to avoid hiding the wikitext, in the spirit of WP:TMP: Templates should not normally be used to store article text, as this makes it more difficult to edit the content. Therefore, subst and delete the template. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 15:35, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete without subst. The infobox should only appear on Federal Bureau of Investigation and not on other pages. Gonnym (talk) 15:42, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also alright with that :) HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 16:42, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Only two uses after nearly 20 years, probably just easier to directly use an elink. Primefac (talk) 15:32, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete due to insufficient use: the remaining two uses can be accomplished with a regular external link. --Minoa (talk) 18:31, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not heavily used, and while I understand the convenience element I feel like using {{val}} works just as well (plus it has more options). Primefac (talk) 15:27, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
