• {{Tfd links|Exists}}

This template appears to be redundant to {{tl|If}}'s "exist" option. It may be eligible for speedy deletion as a recreation of a deleted template, depending on the content of the deleted template of the same name. – Jonesey95 (talk) 23:04, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

:I was going to ask for it to be deleted myself. I thought it could check interwiki which would be a new feature, but it can't. Please delete. JoeJShmo^💌 00:12, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Domain name speculation. (non-admin closure) Toadette^Edit! 15:42, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

• {{Tfd links|Domain parking|module= |type=merge}}
• {{Tfd links|Domain name speculation|module= |type=merge}}

Propose merging Template:Domain parking with Template:Domain name speculation.

These two navboxes share almost all entries and it is unclear the link between the entries and the title ZandDev 22:30, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

• Merge per nomination. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 01:48, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
• Merge with recommendation. They are almost identical, therefore my recommendation is: entries in Template:Domain parking that are not already present in it should be added to Template:Domain name speculation in alphabetical order, then Template:Domain parking should redirect to Domain name speculation, this way nothing gets broken and all the websites using the removed template automatically use the new one.

To put it bluntly, this family of templates should not exist. They simply create a wikilink in the style of a reference to the book, in a manner that appears to imply that the text it succeeds is supported by the "reference". Recommend that it is replaced by either full references, or the HPXref family of templates that are found in the same category, as those are actual references (though their names should be expanded, but that's a different discussion). Primefac (talk) 20:27, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

• Delete and replace existing uses with the proper referenced template versions e.g. {{tl|HP5ref}}, which are clearly better. These ones at TfD are inferior duplicates. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:20, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
• This kind of citation was common in the ancient times for some fictional properties (CS Lewis and LOTR are the two I know of), as some background. And some potential chasing, if you want to verify it's not like that anymore. Izno (talk) 17:00, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

I can sort of see where this would be a useful convenience template, but given that an [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=insource%3A%22%5B%5BFile%3ARepublicanlogo.svg%7C30px%7CRepublican+Party%5D%5D+%5B%5BRepublican+Party+%28United+States%29%7CRepublican%5D%5D%22&title=Special%3ASearch&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns0=1&ns1=1&ns2=1&ns3=1&ns4=1&ns5=1&ns6=1&ns7=1&ns8=1&ns9=1&ns10=1&ns11=1&ns12=1&ns13=1&ns14=1&ns15=1&ns100=1&ns101=1&ns118=1&ns119=1&ns710=1&ns711=1&ns828=1&ns829=1 insource search] shows zero uses across the entirety of the project, methinks that people are not using it (opting instead to just type out the full wikilink).

Text and an icon, uses likely violate MOS:ICON but otherwise it's just a wikilink as a template. Primefac (talk) 18:10, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Military and Police Auxiliary Organizations within the United States. (non-admin closure) Toadette^Edit! 15:48, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

• {{Tfd links|United States Military Auxiliaries|module= |type=merge}}
• {{Tfd links|Military and Police Auxiliary Organizations within the United States|module= |type=merge}}

Propose merging Template:United States Military Auxiliaries with Template:Military and Police Auxiliary Organizations within the United States.

Clearly overlapping templates, so there's no need for both. The more expansive Template:Military and Police Auxiliary Organizations within the United States is a little busy and could use some better organization, but covers everything that Template:United States Military Auxiliaries, so this just reduces clutter. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 10:58, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
