• Module:User contrib/sandbox/testcases (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

No meaningful tests (just compares a broken invocation of this module to the empty string, which always fails. Much more useful tests for Module:User contrib are available at Template:User contrib/testcases, but this title is too obscure to be a useful redirect there. I can't figure out how to tag /testcases pages, so haven't done so here. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 23:12, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. There's an issue (now being tracked on phab) but if and when that's resolved they'll stop throwing errors. Primefac (talk) 15:21, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

For anyone else thrown off by the history, this comes from Module:Jct/city/sandbox I believe. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 19:27, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Replace (subst:) with Infobox settlement and delete. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 13:23, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:Infobox city Japan (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Replace (subst:) with Infobox settlement and delete

"city Japan"-specific wrapper for {{Infobox settlement}}, there is no such wrapper for "city India / China / Korea / Thailand / Vietnam / Pakistan / Canada / United States / Mexico / Colombia / Brazil ... ". Subst:itution will reduce the maintenance overhead, reduce the cognitive burden for editors, and enable articles to benefit more immediately from improvements to the current parent template.

• Support replacement and deletion. No special functionality. Deletion will enforce consistent parameter nameset, and allow all IS params to be used. Implementation note: please do not blindly subst as someone did with last settlement IB, it will create lots of blank param fields on the 1119 transclusions. Get one of the general TfD bots to do it properly. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 17:50, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:Timeline note (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Originally nominated for speedy deletion by @Gonnym with the reason "Doc says used in Template:Note row" FASTILY 03:28, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Pretty much what WP:G8 is. If the parent template is deleted, where would this page, which is dependent on it, be used? --Gonnym (talk) 07:24, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Then could you please cite the exact passage from WP:CSD#G8 that permits such templates to be deleted? For the record, I'm not arguing against deletion, but I do think CSD should only be applied to clear-cut cases where specific policy can be cited. -FASTILY 09:42, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Pages dependent on a non-existent or deleted page - the template states that it used in {{Note row}}. That template was deleted, so this template is dependent on a deleted page. --Gonnym (talk) 10:27, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• That's the section heading for G8, which is obviously going to be a general statement. The following line, Examples include:, clarifies situations where G8 may be applied, and none of the examples match up with the scenario we have here. I interpret CSD pretty loosely, but even this is a stretch for me. OTOH, I'd strongly support an RfC amending G8 to include this scenario. -FASTILY 22:13, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete and I would consider it as a G8 as well as a component of a deleted template. --Trialpears (talk) 08:06, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• This should, ideally have been included in Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2020 September 1#Template:Timeline row. Delete slowly per the close of that discussion. (I don't think this meets G8, because it is still functional even though Template:Note row no longer exists). * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 22:58, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
