District commission-specific wrapper for {{Infobox settlement}}, with limited transclusions, on pretty stable sets of articles. 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.
Note: Despite being named "Infobox settlement" the template is not only used for settlements. Per its documentation, Infobox settlement is "used to produce an Infobox for human settlements (cities, towns, villages, communities) as well as other administrative districts, counties, provinces, et cetera—in fact, any subdivision below the level of a country"
.
Other entities (states, court districts, cities, villages ...) already transclude {{Infobox settlement}} directly.

Propose merging Template:Roster maintenance with Template:Squad maintenance.
Same exact template with the difference being the hardcoded word "Roster" or "Squad" for display (not for any internal processing). These should have a more generic name anyways, as it's not used only for sports-related templates. The tool is named "Template linking and transclusion check" so something similar can be used to name the combined template. Gonnym (talk) 09:18, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
Propose merging Template:Northern Arizona Elite with Template:Footer Northern Arizona Elite.
{{Northern Arizona Elite}} is an older, unused duplicate of {{Footer Northern Arizona Elite}}. It has no transclusions and all of the information and functionality in the former (which is now outdated anyways) is available in the latter. Habst (talk) 07:40, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
- Are either of those even valid templates? Northern Arizona Elite is not an article. I can't see how if the group itself isn't notable there needs to be a navigation template for its members. --Gonnym (talk) 09:13, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
