- Template:Video RTS (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
This template was first created in 2014, of which it originally just copied the most from the Role-playing video games template, I did though change the content to actually relate to the real-time strategy genre. Though, a template covering Strategy video games already exists, which is the parent genre of real-time strategy. This should account for a good reason to delete this template.

- Template:Countdown2 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
No transclusions, documentation, or categories. Created in April 2024. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:00, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- It's a work in progress still. I don't think simply being unused is a valid justification for deletion. If the template has no prospective use then yeah. Awesome Aasim 20:22, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- Userfy so the creator can still work on it. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 02:45, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Actually now that this is mostly finished I don't think there is a good reason for deletion. The template is dependent on another module Module:Countdown2 for functionality. I created it because the first countdown module is a bit complicated. This one you can spit in any date and it will give the appropriate countdown (or hide it) for that module.

- Template:2024–25 ICC Men's T20 World Cup East Asia-Pacific Regional Final (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Unused table. Unclear where this should be used as I couldn't find in the related articles an exact match for this table. Gonnym (talk) 08:39, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Unused as 2025 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Asia–East Asia-Pacific Regional Final#Points table uses a different table. Gonnym (talk) 08:36, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Unused navboxes as the templates were quickly removed from articles they were used on and the consensus at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Ice_Hockey#Roster_navboxes is against adding them back. Gonnym (talk) 08:26, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as per consensus at the WikiProject. Flibirigit (talk) 17:10, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete both per the consensus already noted and because the information these templates seek to add is already adequately covered by existing articles. (I posted a more detailed version of this comment in the discussion Gonnym linked above.) 1995hoo (talk) 18:17, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per consensus at the project Wheatzilopochtli (talk) 18:20, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete without question. It's pure clutter, particularly for those players who were at multiple international events. GoodDay (talk) 19:16, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

- Delete templates as they go against consensus of WP:NHL. – sbaio 03:59, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete All per nom. >>> Extorc.talk 19:45, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
Now the cast have been purged (per WP:PERFNAV), there is not enough here to warrant a navbox. WP:NENAN --woodensuperman 09:42, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Ed [talk] [OMT] 16:17, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. I concede it was a mistake to include the "recurring cast" into this navbox, but I don't see why Nice Peter and EpicLLOYD were removed from the navbox. WP:PERFNAV is meant for performers, but ERB is something those two created. It wouldn't make sense to apply that guideline in that way here. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 02:36, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- WP:PERFNAV includes crew, writers, etc., thus this includes creators. --woodensuperman 14:31, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Woodensuperman: If that's the case, then it needs to be clarified within the guideline. There's gotta be some limitations on PERFNAV here because otherwise we risk a massive instruction/scope creep. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 16:19, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- It's a good guideline, otherwise you end up with WP:NAVBOXCREEP if you have a TV show creator who has made multiple TV shows, and you risk falling foul of WP:UNDUE if these people are better known for other things. --woodensuperman 18:50, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, but this an example where the two are primarily known for creating this show. It very clearly is not WP:UNDUE.
I also don't see how your argument about multiple TV shows wouldn't apply to something like an entrepreneur who has been heavily involved with multiple businesses. Are we going to say we should remove Elon Musk from the Twitter navbox because he's already on {{SpaceX}}?
For that matter, why are you so sure WP:PERFNAV even applies here? ERB is as much a business as it is a production since they went independent. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 01:18, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
