• {{Tfd links|L-abbr|module=}}

Only transcluded on documentation page and author's user page. Jc86035 (talk) 14:39, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Comment If this gets to a consensus of 'delete' can you please instead move it into my userspace (User:Nixinova/L-abbr)? Thanks {{User:Nixinova/sig/5}} 19:11, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• I have no issue with userfying. --Izno (talk) 13:54, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:States of Nazi Germany. No opposition. I will note that while there was no discussion in the other two nominations on this page regarding the appropriateness of the name or targets, there is no prejudice against a rename of Template:States of Nazi Germany if it's determined to not be appropriate.

• {{Tfd links|German administrative territories|type=merge}}
• {{Tfd links|States of Nazi Germany|type=merge}}

Propose merging Template:German administrative territories with Template:States of Nazi Germany.

In order to consolidate territorial possessions of Nazi Germany in one template, which most of not all screen resolutions do permit. Chicbyaccident (talk) 11:34, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

• Comment. {{tl|States of Nazi Germany}} should be deleted as unused (and it does not link to Nazi specific articles). However, I think some sort of merge is in order. {{tl|German administrative territories}} needs to be renamed as it is misleading. --woodensuperman 12:10, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

• Concur with {{U|Woodensuperman}}: delete the "States" one as not helpful, and rename (but keep) Template:German administrative territories. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:27, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Delete maybe merge them somewhere, but definitely delete {{t|States of Nazi Germany}} as not linking to nazi specific articles, just regular german state articles where {{t|States of Germany}} is what should be used. Also these three discussions really should've been one discussion. Galobtter (pingó mió) 06:25, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

• {{Tfd links|Yahwistic titles of Jesus in Greek|module=}}

This template violates WP:NPOV. This list of titles is not widely accepted, and the interpretation of these titles varies substantially grouping them together in this fashion favors a particular interpretation of these terms. Daask (talk) 00:31, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

:There was a sketchy debate about this in 2008, see here. I agree that the listing of titles is not widely accepted, if at all. Are there any uses of the category in reliable sources? If not, then there are arguments in favour of deletion. As for WP:NPOV, I question whether this listing can be classed as NPOV. As pointed out in 2008, the Greek (Septuagintal) terms are applied to YHWH and the template rests on a fact. However, I would insist that it is not a worthwhile one from the perspective of academic theology. — Jpacobb (talk) 03:16, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

::{{reply to|Jpacobb}} I have made no attempt to ascertain whether any RS makes this grouping. If not, this would be WP:OR. However, even if some source did make such a grouping, I still think this template is a problem, as it would give undue weight to this perspective. The claim that the terms Soter or Poimen in the New Testament are primarily to be understood as "Yahwistic titles" is a marginal view. In order to be presented like this in a navbox, I think NPOV would require such a grouping to be a clearly dominant interpretation. Daask (talk) 13:59, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

• Delete. "God" and "Lord" aren't specifically related to Jesus (they appear elsewhere extensively), and the Alpha and Omega mentions situations unrelated to Jesus, so they ought to be trimmed from the template. That would leave this template with an extremely small list of remaining links (especially given the amount of space it occupies), so we'd be better off deleting it. Nyttend (talk) 04:51, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
• I don't have any vehement objection to the existence of this template, but the fact that I've never understood what "Yahwistic" is supposed to mean in this context, despite knowing a fair amount about Hebrew, Greek, and the Bible, does not cause me to feel enthusiastic about the template... AnonMoos (talk) 05:15, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

:*I assume it means that these are titles of divinity also appearing in the Old Testament. But I agree, it doesn't really make sense; it's as if we're associated Jesus with one part of JEPD. Nyttend (talk) 11:36, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was redirect to Template:British Isles livestock. {{u|Cavalryman V31}}, please make sure proper attribution is given on the template talk page with {{t|copied}}. Primefac (talk) 02:13, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

All were formerly navboxes within the larger Template:British Isles livestock, I have since added collapsible species sections to that template so these are now redundant. Cavalryman V31 (talk) 20:57, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:High-use (since the high-risk talk currently redirects to the high-use talk). Keep in mind how extant uses of both with zero parameters will be affected. Primefac (talk) 01:30, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

• {{Tfd links|High-risk|module=|type=merge}}
• {{Tfd links|High-use|module=|type=merge}}

Propose merging Template:High-risk with Template:High-use.

There is no reason for these to be separate templates rather than just having one template that switches which message box is displayed when the number reaches 100,000. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 13:46, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

• Merge. And is it feasible to make usage counts and template updates automatic rather than manual?  Paine Ellsworth  ^put'r there  14:37, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
• No, unless you put every page transcluding a template into a category and used PAGESINCATEGORY. All of our transclusion count tools are external, so manual updating is the only reasonable way to do it. Primefac (talk) 15:10, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
• Thank you, Primefac. Still one more thing to monitor.  Paine Ellsworth  ^put'r there  02:23, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
• A merge seems reasonable per those above. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 07:59, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
• Many or most uses of this template do not include raw numbers but also one of a variety of symbols (+, <, >, etc.). Ensure this case is covered if these are merged. --Izno (talk) 13:59, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
• Merge. If assistance is required ensuring edge-cases (as above) are handled, ping me when this hits the holding area. TheDragonFire (talk) 08:45, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
• Merge. Makes sense to automate.   ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf)  14:44, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
• Merge but ensure this works with current uses (maybe have the parser strip out non-digit characters when deciding whether to use the high risk or high use templates). Kevin (aka L235 · t · c) 23:01, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
• Merge. They both look familiar, but I didn't realise that we had two of them; I see them rarely enough that it never occurred to me that there were different templates. I like the idea of having a single template with a parameter to present a different message if we specify a really big number. Nyttend (talk) 04:47, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
• Merge seems fine, however plain uses of just {{high-risk}} should show the stronger message so you'd need to replace them with something like {{high-use|risk}} Galobtter (pingó mió) 15:24, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

• {{Tfd links|Block quote|module=Module:}}

Unused, broken when used from wikitext (mainFrame doesn't return anything), and doesn't do anything sufficiently complicated to merit a special module. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 01:23, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

• I would support sandboxing to Module:Sandbox/TheDJ, given the name of the user in question. The first version makes it fairly clear the module is likely intended to do block quoting better than we've got in other templates. --Izno (talk) 13:56, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
