Template:Charleston-Huntington area roads (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Creating a template that is just dozens of links, most of them redlinks, serves little purpose. If you're going to have a template, at least present major roads in some context. Bitmapped (talk) 21:56, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am currently in the process of creating articles from those redlinks. Please do not delete just yet. - Presidentman talk · contribs Random Picture of the Day (Talkback) 22:01, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete—this template is bloated with links, when just adding Category:Transportation in the Charleston & Huntington metropolitan areas to the articles will work just as well to bind the articles together. Now, that category is even problematic because of the "&" in the name, and the fact that these are two separate, but adjacent, metropolitan areas. I suggest that Presidentman rethink the situation and come up with better solutions. Imzadi 1979  23:19, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Purge most of the links. For what it's worth, this is the area we're discussing. As it is, this navbox has zero utility as a navigational aide. It would be more useful if you cut out the state highways, leaving only the Interstates and US Highways. –Fredddie 04:04, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete red link farm, and the bounds of the geographical area are arbitrary. --Rschen7754 04:33, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The bounds are not arbitrary. They are defined by the OMB. - Presidentman talk · contribs Random Picture of the Day (Talkback) 21:02, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Which is arbitrary, because I'm sure that when people are looking at the template, they aren't thinking about the OMB, whatever that is. --Rschen7754 21:08, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
And you've included two separate metropolitan areas, which is even more arbitrary. If you want a list of links to create, put it in your user space, but not template space. Imzadi 1979  03:09, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Catch 22 (Tinchy Stryder album) (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Only five of the album's songs have links and each of those are already linkable through Template:Tinchy Stryder singles. Same rationale was applied in the TfD for Template:Loud (Rihanna album). Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 21:34, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Jewish Community Centre (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

By and large, JCCs are not notable; half the template as it stands now is redlinked, and the main article indicates that there are over 350 centers in various countries. WP is not a travel directory. MSJapan (talk) 15:59, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete, better served by a category. Frietjes (talk) 22:30, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unused template and generally redundant to other templates, like {{Color box}}. 186.73.132.154 (talk) 02:10, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment a width is specified for flagColorBox and not for colorBox, so perhaps colorBox should add a parameter to specify width. 76.65.128.198 (talk) 06:42, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
