It is completely unnecessary to store the text and/or TemplateData of English Wikipedia templates in commons datasets. subst and delete {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 15:48, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Pppery:, please stop, you don't need to delete everything you do not agree with. This template is the core effort that has been requested since the begining of Wikipedia - to make Wikipedia templates and modules easily sharable between languages and projects. You seem to think that English is the only language out there, and the efforts required to translate things is of no concern to any other language. Please stop. Thanks to TNT, it is possible to share templates and modules without modifying them. P.S. this template is used in 15 languages, clearly there is some value in it. --Yurik (talk) 20:22, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Cleanup partial cites with Template:Ref expand.

It doesn't navigate enough articles for a navbox Cornerstonepicker (talk) 01:34, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Welcometothenewmillenium:, You've been here to know it doesn't work like that. "Everyone" who cares already can find out about this. The TfD is already listed on the log and linked from the template. Anyone who is interested in either the template or in TfD generally will already know. Picking individual, unconnected editors to come and participate is usually considered canvassing. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 02:52, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Eggishorn:, okay like I said ... everyone's opinions, comments and votes are welcomed! Welcometothenewmillenium (talk) 03:08, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete although I would imagine it will be recreated in the future as the singer expands her body of work. But right now this navbox doesn't quite follow the Navbox Guidelines sufficiently. Navboxes are intended to link between the various subjects for ease of navigation. As is, all of the links in this navbox lead away from the primary subject. None of the singles currently linked are themselves candidates to have this navbox at the bottom of their respective pages, so they do not represent a navigational cluster. -Markeer 16:19, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Markeer:, I understand your argument and yes I agree with you. However, she has released four singles and those need to be listed and mentioned. I quickly checked back and saw some of the glitches and am currently in the process of doing so. The links are no longer indirect links but are primary now. These are in fact her songs and she collaborated on all of them.Welcometothenewmillenium (talk) 20:46, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: @Welcometothenewmillenium: the article you just created for the album track "In Your Phone" (not a single) fails in WP:NSONGS and I believe is a candidate for deletion since it doesn't have notability. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 20:57, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: @Cornerstonepicker: It is a single because it was released from Ty Dolla Sign Beach House 3 album. Some research you need to check yourself.Welcometothenewmillenium (talk) 21:01, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Welcometothenewmillenium: That can be discussed on its own afD page. It's an album track. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 21:08, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Cornerstonepicker: Oh I see how it is, this always have to be a problem when it comes to my edits. Mhm I see well I am sure you liked my response comment back.Welcometothenewmillenium (talk) 02:13, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
