- I'd like to ask for another administrator to check this, I think the rationale given to keep it is misguided; the page might be a redirect to a disambiguation page, but there is no need to retain it, since it was once the same page, and contains the phrase "(disambiguation)" in the title, which few people will search on.WhiteLightning08:38, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- SeeWP:R and my talk page. Additionally, the page used to contain history from a cut-and-paste move, but I have since repaired it.Kusma(討論)09:03, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The nominated redirect was
deleted. Template aliases should be avoided if possible. Unused anyway. --

Ligulem21:34, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]There is aTemplate:Infobox_Radio that is in use (NB capitalisation difference), this now unused redirect entry is confusingAGoon03:19, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: There are now no real pages using eitherInfobox Radio orInfobox radio. I propose we redirectInfobox radio toInfobox Radio and turnInfobox Radio into a disambiguation page redirecting people toInfobox Radio Station orInfobox Radio Show. --AGoon21:55, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: A ton of crap needs to be done here...

16:05, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]The following redirects (all to {{db-reason}}) are nominated for deletion:
The redirects {{d}} {{db}} {{delete}} {{deletebecause}} and {{db-because}} are not being proposed, either because they are actively being used, or for historical reasons(or because they fit the naming conventions; insertion --ais523 12:14, 16 October 2006 (UTC)).
I am proposing the redirects above for deletion because they don't fit the naming conventions for speedy-delete templates, many of them are unlikely to be used, and many of the names aren't intuitive and are unlikely to be found by accident. --ais523 08:41, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
- ANNIHILATE ANNIHILATE andExterminate Exterminate. No strong opinion on the others, some of them are still in use (I think I've seen{{speedy}} and{{speedy delete}} onCAT:CSD patrol) but I can't provide any data on how common the use is: anyway, anybody using them should be able to find the correct templates.Kusma(討論)16:27, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Update {{del}} surviveda TfD in November 2004. However, the reasons given (abbreviation and easy to type) no longer apply in my view due to the existence of {{d}}, so I'm not changing my nomination. --ais523 09:37, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete ANNIHILATE and Exterminate. No opinion on SPEEDY.Keep the rest; especially for users active on multiple wikis, deletion templates are an inconsistent maze, and there's no reason to make them harder to find. —Cryptic23:06, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete ANNIHILATE and Exterminate as incivil. I amNeutral on the others.Gavia immer (u|t|c)00:25, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete ANNIHILATE and Exterminate as needlessly provocative.Keep the rest as potentially useful. —TKD::Talk06:02, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- CertainlyKeep{{speedy}}. I have used it in the past, and very occasionally still do.NatusRoma |Talk05:10, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete the two uncivil ones. Those should never have been created in the first place.Keep the rest because they are extensively mentioned across user pages, talk pages and article histories. The redirect alone serves to tell most users that these old templates have been deprecated. But if that's not sufficient, keep them with a{{historical}} or other deprecation tag.Rossami(talk)18:14, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- BJAODN ANNIHILATE and Exterminate.Delete SPEEDY.Keep the rest. When I saw those, I nearly went ROFLMAO when I saw them! The first one made me think aboutE-123 Omega, while the second one made me think aboutDaleks. However, SPEEDY should go to the bit bucket, because it is not funny nor is it likely to be used by someone coming here from another wiki.Jesse Viviano08:07, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep speedy, db, rm and delete. Not everyone is master of obscure abbreviations invented last week and text explanation is far more useful to provide the needed context. No opinion on the rest.Pavel Vozenilek14:02, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delbecause, speedy, and del all have more than four links.Delete ANNIHILATE, Exterminate, and SPEEDY;keep the rest.TimBentley(talk)03:10, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete {{ANNIHILATE}} and {{exterminate}} and keep the others. --Omicronpersei8 (talk)04:31, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
