- Template:Miss Nicaragua winners in the Big Four pageants (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Only one link to an article of relevance. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:19, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
No more links to any articles as they all have been redirected for no sources or in depth coverage and not being notable after over a decade since creation or after four years. Template is no longer needed. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:32, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- DELETE. Unnecessary template. Bgsu98 (Talk) 18:11, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
Only three links to articles. The rest are redlinks which never were created. And the others I redirected to due years of no notability due to no sources and/or in-depth coverage of the annual event. Not enough links to navigate with for a navbox. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 15:42, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Only four links. All links can be found easily through the main aricle. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 15:19, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Per this Afd and my recent edits redirecting the remaining articles due to over a decade or six years of no sources and/or in-depth coverage of the annual event. No articles to navigate to or with. Template is no longer needed. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 15:11, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
No longer used. It was embedded in Template:Cyclones but had overlapping content. I merged the two and fixed the overlap, then converted the minority of articles that used this template to use the merged one. -- Beland (talk) 12:09, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

- Template:NGC objects (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
This template does not show up on the mobile version of the site, and so is not useful for the majority of readers. It seems simple enough that it could be replaced with "See also" links, or maybe just a link to List of NGC objects. -- Beland (talk) 10:16, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. I made the template. If a list is split for size reasons then it's common to provide navigation in the lead. Mobile has chosen to omit navigation templates for space reasons. I don't think that's a reason to also remove them from desktop. List of NGC objects (1–1000) has twice as many desktop views [1] as mobile [2]. All the numbered lists already link List of NGC objects in the opening paragraph. PrimeHunter (talk) 10:39, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- Those stats imply mobile readers may be having trouble navigating these lists compared to desktop readers - if so, adopting an alternative nav solution would help. -- Beland (talk) 12:17, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- Mobile has more total page views at the English Wikipedia [3] but specialized science articles usually have more desktop when I check it. A factor two is probably above average. Desktop users are used to navigation templates and for a split list it's nice to have it at the top. We could add see also links but I don't think it should be a replacement for a normal navigation template. PrimeHunter (talk) 15:56, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

is more or less an invalid argument at TFD. It might be fair to do elsewise with this template, but that is an insufficient rationale for deletion. Izno (talk) 20:20, 4 January 2025 (UTC)- I find it odd that "should be replaced with something that works better for all readers" would be considered an invalid argument. I could see arguing against the idea if you don't think there's a better alternative, but not categorically opposing such proposals on general principle. -- Beland (talk) 21:09, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- It's a general argument. If you think {{sidebar}} should be deleted, you should argue for that in a TFD about {{sidebar}}. It's also actually a bad general argument, because you also have to argue that {{navbox}} should be deleted as well if that is the rationale. Izno (talk) 21:16, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

All the album articles were redirected nearly a year ago, making this navbox needless. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 04:35, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
