Template:Infobox road small

Propose merging Template:Infobox road small with Template:Infobox road.
There is no reason for a second template here. The documentations states that the only purpose for this template is to provide a compact version of the template. If you want the template to be smaller, just omit certain parameters. No reason to maintain 2 separate templates. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 23:54, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - there is really no reason to maintain two separate infobox for the same subject, just one with less parameters. As Zackmann08 noted, if you want the template shorter, just add the parameters you need. Less optimal option would be to at least make this a wrapper of the main template so at least maintenance would be easier, but I believe there is no reason for that either. --Gonnym (talk) 00:00, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose—per my opposition at Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2015 August 2#Template:Infobox road small. The nominator, Zackmann08, would do well to read that previous discussion and withdraw this nomination until such time as the issues mentioned there with a merger have been thought through. Imzadi 1979 → 00:03, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Imzadi1979: The fact that it was nominated almost 4 years ago doesn't mean it can't be nominated again. I did read the previous discussion and don't agree with the assessment or the conclusion, thus I am re-nominating it. So thanks but no, I will not withdraw my nomination. --Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 00:06, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Zackmann08: in most cases, IRS is used repeatedly on the articles where it is called. IR is used once. At the longest, IRS shows the marker graphic for the highway, the name, a small color bar (using the same color coding scheme as the headers in IR), the location, length, dates, history and tourist routes. (If used for Australia, a route number line is added at the bottom and the marker graphic above is omitted.) It also does so in a physically narrower box. Compare that to IR, which uses a larger marker graphic, displays a map, can display a photo, has parameters for the maintenance organization/agency, legal definition, roadway allocations, a whole junction list section (or sections for segmented highways), a whole section for locations (states/counties/cities/other divisions), a whole section for links to the highway system/roadway network with links to the previous/next highway designation in sequence in addition to the length, dates, history and tourist routes information in IRS. It does all of this with a variety of regionalizations for various countries of the world. That customization, absent the one use case for Australia is unneeded in IRS.

        The coding to shut off the unwanted parameters for the simplified use case when a box is repeated in those listicles would bloat IR and increase page load times when called 6–12 times per article where it's used. (Edit: we use IRS up to 100 times in some articles, as noted below.)

        So I have to ask, who's going to maintain this extra complexity when those who already maintain the two templates resoundingly opposed the nomination the last time around? Imzadi 1979 → 00:40, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - Per the previous TFD. The small version of infobox road is better designed for certain uses such as RCS lists where the regular infobox road would take up too much space. Dough4872 00:18, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. While I do believe these templates could be merged, I do not think that's an optimal outcome. A "proper configuration" is a gross understatement of the amount of shoehorning that would need to be done. Adding the half-dozen or so (I didn't count, but I'm taking an educated guess) parserfunctions needed to whittle {{Infobox road}} down to the {{Infobox road small}} footprint would add to page load times. A page like List of Farm to Market Roads in Texas (1–99) with over 100 instances of {{Infobox road small}} would frustrate some readers. The small infobox was specifically designed to present the relevant information about a highway without the bloat, for lack of a better word, of the main infobox. The text in green here is what I said four years ago. The only difference between then and now is that Lua is used to a slight degree. The rest of the concern stands and I still oppose. –Fredddie™ 00:28, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I feel like we were just here and not much has changed. Anyway, my rationale from then still stands - if we merged all three we would wind up with 1 template that does not fit any of these three needs very well. --Rschen7754 00:34, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong oppose Nothing has changed in either template since 2015 that would make a merge (either of the front-end or back-end) easier, more effective, or more necessary. The interfaces and front-ends should never be merged, per the earlier positions and discussion, and merging the back-ends is not feasible until the Lua version of IBR is finished. The previous discussion was a non-admin keep, and the points made by the nominator have been clearly refuted by Imzadi, Dough, Fredddie, and others here and in the 2015 discussion, which is still relevant because nothing has changed since 2015. -happy5214 02:19, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose While I would support the addition of more parameters to the small infobox (such as termini and perhaps a map frame), there's not much point in merging the two and the many reasons against merging have already been laid out. (On a side note, I do find it interesting how much attention one can draw to a discussion when it's plastered onto every road article.) Roadsguy (talk) 03:00, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per the issues identified by Fredddie. This seems like a nomination in search of a problem. SounderBruce 03:49, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy close per WP:AINT. Cards84664 (talk) 05:05, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per comments of Fredddie, Imzadi and others. The two infoboxes are designed for two specific and different use cases. While they could theoretically be merged, it seems the amount of coding needed on the back end to achieve the desired result is more troublesome than it's worth at the current time. LJ ↗ 15:54, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To be fair, a merge wasn't really hard and required almost no tinkering around. See results:

{{User:Gonnym/sandbox/tests1 |state = NJ |type = US |route = 1-9 |subtype = TRUCK |location = [[Jersey City, New Jersey]] |length_mi = 4.11 |length_round = 2 |length_ref = <ref name=SLD2>{{cite web|url=http://www.state.nj.us/transportation/refdata/sldiag/00000001T_-.pdf|title=U.S. Route 1-9 Truck straight line diagram|publisher=New Jersey Department of Transportation|accessdate=2007-04-12}}</ref> }} {{Infobox road small |state = NJ |type = US |route = 1-9 |subtype = TRUCK |location = [[Jersey City, New Jersey]] |length_mi = 4.11 |length_round = 2 |length_ref = <ref name=SLD2>{{cite web|url=http://www.state.nj.us/transportation/refdata/sldiag/00000001T_-.pdf|title=U.S. Route 1-9 Truck straight line diagram|publisher=New Jersey Department of Transportation|accessdate=2007-04-12}}</ref> }}

The changes to the infobox do not require any user input on the articles and is taken care of at the infobox level, so no changes are needed to any article. Unless I'm missing something, there really is no disadvantage in creating this as a wrapper. --Gonnym (talk) 09:35, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You are missing something, Gonnym. If I'm reading your code correctly, you've edited {{infobox road}} so that it always appears like {{infobox road small}}, which is not acceptable. These are two different use cases, and as such, the two output versions need to be preserved. That's why they're separate templates. Imzadi 1979 → 14:47, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, that isn't what I did. I've added |bodystyle= and |labelstyle= parameters that when not empty (called from the small infobox) don't do anything (as the small one currently does) else, do the normal infobox (as the normal one currently does). Try calling User:Gonnym/sandbox/tests2 and see the difference. --Gonnym (talk) 14:52, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Gonnym: it doesn't work on Business routes of Interstate 96. If I replace "infobox road small" with "User:Gonnym/sandbox/tests2 |bodystyle=none|labelstyle=none" and preview, the marker graphics appear at full size, the full-size headers appear instead of the thin color bars and the browselinks appear, so this is not a solution. Trying it on List of Farm to Market Roads in Texas (1–99) breaks the page because you reach template inclusion limits. Imzadi 1979 → 15:19, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
As I said, there is no need to add any parameters to the articles. So just use {{User:Gonnym/sandbox/tests2}} (I've tested it on Business routes of Interstate 96 and it works). Regarding the inclusion limit on the second page, I've changed all 100+ usages and it works and there is no error message (I can see all 189 citations without a problem). --Gonnym (talk) 15:32, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The third infobox is what tests2 looks like using the same example. This clearly isn't acceptable. -happy5214 19:09, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
That's essentially what I was getting, and I second what happy5214 says: that's not acceptable based on the intended use case for which the template was designed years ago. The marker graphic is too large, there are the headers ("route information" and "highway system") plus everything under the second header should not appear. Imzadi 1979 → 21:38, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Again, for the 3rd time - the template should not be used with |bodystyle=none and |labelstyle=none. If you ignore what I said, then of course the template will not work as I said. test1 is infobox road small, while test2 is infobox road. Here is how test2 looks (the same as infobox road):
  • Adding on to what I said earlier: I think this is a case of WP:SLFP, as I don't see what we're trying to fix here. I also think it's relevant that of the editors who have commented here, the vast majority (if not all) who edit in the relevant field have opposed. Plus, if the two templates were to be merged, would that mean every instance of {{infobox road small}} would need to be changed to {{infobox road}}? That's quite a task, as there are currently almost 2000 transclusions of the small template. Roadguy2 (talk) 20:05, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Zero transclusions in main namespace after deletions per Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2019_February_1#Louis-Alphonse_(anthroponymy). This template categorized redirects with names ending in (anthroponymy) to a target anthroponymy (name) lists. This was mimicking the practice of WP:DABNAME to create redirects ending in (disambiguation). However, unlike with dab pages, there is no issue with linking to name pages directly. Anthroponymy pages are not dab pages. Note that the template's documentation was recently changed to remove mention of the prior (anthroponymy) suffix practice. —Bagumba (talk) 19:01, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oddly worded user warning for an ambiguous purpose [Username Needed] 14:51, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Finding out the purpose was a what-links-here-click away. With the context revealed, its purpose is unambiguous. It's a notice to users who did not submit their requests at Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple using some template-assisted request format that is or was in use there at least at one time. It may even be unknown to the current crop of responders, having gotten lost in some shuffle, who might otherwise use it. Or it may be completely useless because the project's format has completely changed since it was tailored for use there. Hard to tell.

Keep. This is not superseded by {{Db-nonsense-notice}}, serves a different purpose entirely than it does, and I use it for that purpose. This is a template to place after an article has already been deleted as meeting G1, and is appropriately listed under CSD deletions at WP:WARN. Db-nonsense-notice, by contrast, is placed after one has tagged an article for deletion under G1. With that entirely different purpose, timing, and condition in mind, this template says:
  • "[Page Name] has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1..."
whereas Db-nonsense-notice says:
  • "A tag has been placed on [Page Name], requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1..."
Thereafter, each provides relevant text tailored to the entirely different situation each addresses, one being post deletion, and one being a tagging, e.g., Db-nonsense-notice goes on to give instructions about contesting the deletion while it is pending consideration, and further instructs about how the article may be deleted at any time, once tagged, and so forth, all of which would make no sense in Nonsense-warn-deletion.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 14:54, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This template was deprecated 4.5 years ago but still has 25 files tagged with it. The remaining uses should be changed to other copyright tags and this template should be deleted to stop it being used, as its rational is incorrect per previous discussion.

Template is full of redlinks that are unlikely to ever be created, as individual years for national teams are not maintained and are instead maintained cumulatively by articles such as Mexico national football team schedule and results. Jay eyem (talk) 00:05, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. As noted, results from 2007 to date are in a single file and presumably earlier years will be added. If they are ever split into years/decades/whatever that is the time to create the template. NFT is unsuitable too, why not "national football team". Nigej (talk) 12:39, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
