• Template:Gemini TV Shows (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Only three shows, two of which they only had one season. Serves no purpose other than acting like WP:NOTTVGUIDE. CNMall41 (talk) 19:00, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

• Template:Roh roster (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

No transclusions. A discussion agreed to deprecate this template. See this TFD for links and details. I neglected to include this template in that TFD, and now it's too late to merge them. – Jonesey95 (talk) 10:51, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

• Template:Infobox Australian place (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
• Template:Infobox settlement (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Propose merging Template:Infobox Australian place with Template:Infobox settlement.
This isn’t technically a nomination to merge, but a nomination to convert to a wrapper. A search of other custom settlement infoboxes (such as {{Infobox US state}} or {{Infobox Italian comune}}) shows that nearly all of them us {{Infobox settlement}} as a base. In fact I was unable to find any that don’t use this well established template as their base. While this certainly has some customization with tracking categories and other custom logic, I see no reason that this cannot be redone as a wrapper template so that its layout is in the same well established format of settlements around the world.

Additionally this template violates many best practices with its large color boxes around labels (I can find NO other Infobox that does this) and contains lots of information that does not belong in an Infobox. There is a reason that {{Infobox settlement}} with its 576,000+ transclusions does not have information such as average rainfall, mean temperature or distance to nearest suburbs. At the very least this template should follow best practices and look better than it does. — Zackmann (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 05:08, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

This has been discussed at length in July 2020 at Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2020 July 19#Template:Infobox Australian place. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 06:31, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

It would be best if you could implement a merge using e.g. Module:Template wrapper in the Template:Infobox Australian place/sandbox and demonstrate how it's better. --Joy (talk) 09:21, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

Strong Oppose Mainly the arguments made @AussieLegend on the most recent discussion. This template allows for mentions in the InfoBox for critical facts like Local Government Area(s), State Electorate(s), and Federal Electorate(s). Regarding the colour violation, this is leaning towards WP:CLEANUP territory. Local Government Area is actually crucial information on an Australian Suburb. These suburbs are quite similar United States Neighborhoods, E.G. JeffVanderLou, Lafayette Square, they don't have there own mayor, but unlike United States Neighborhoods, Australian Suburbs are actually defined as existing legally by their state government and by the Census. Regarding the Colour violation, these Colours can just be removed. Servite et contribuere (talk) 12:37, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

You would surely expect a Wikipedia article to be serious, otherwise the unserious content would have been deleted. I bet disclaimers similar to these have been added many times to articles and promptly removed, throughout WP history; this time it’s in template form. Polomo (talk) 23:51, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
